Is it possible to use Argan Oil onthe face skin while on Roaccutane? Is it a bad idea?

Question

Melanie Hecker, MD · Answer

There is no good published data that Argan oil has any benefit.  As an MD, I rely on evidence-based medicine when recommending a product or treatment.

F. Victor Rueckl, MD (in memoriam) · Answer

The simply answer is yes, but the more beneficial answer is that Argan oil has zero scientific studies behind it showing it works. And often, Argan oil becomes contaminated and has bacteria in the bottles because it is unstablized. So, do you really want to put bacteria on your face? My guess is no. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and 
cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion. Seek in-person 
treatment with a trained medical professional for appropriate care."
