Can I get a rhinoplasty procedure while on Accutane ?

Lipo360vaserMay 18, 2020

The upper portion of the structure of the nose is bone, and the lower portion is cartilage. Rhinoplasty can change bone, cartilage, skin or all three. Talk with your surgeon about whether rhinoplasty is appropriate for you and what it can achieve.

The real long term concern in your situation is incremental displacement of osteotomized bones. It takes up to 6 to 8 weeks to get to 85-90% of the pre-surgical bone strength.  One of the compromises would be to avoid osteotomies, if it is possible. There are also commercially...
