Is Red Light Therapy Safe While on Accutane?

Question

I am talking about the home safety to use red light device as a photorejuvenation procedure wth Accutane devices like Baby Quasar or ANSR red light. Thanks!

Bryan K. Chen, MD · Answer

I believe these non-invasive red light devices are safe while on accutane.  I would, however, delay any laser resurfacing, chemical peels, dermabrasion or any other procedure that removes the superficial layers of skin until 6-12 months after discontinuation of accutane.
Good luck.
