Accutane and tattoo eyebrows?

Question

I’ve just had my eyebrows tattooed. Will I be able to take accutane while my eyebrow tattoo is healing because I was supposed to take my acctuane treatment the day after I got my eyebrows tattooed. Thank you!

Anna Chacon, MD, FAAD · Answer

It's generally recommended to avoid starting Accutane (isotretinoin) treatment immediately after getting a tattoo, including eyebrow tattoos, until the area has fully healed. Accutane can significantly impact skin healing by causing dryness and increasing sensitivity, which might interfere with the healing process of your new tattoo and potentially lead to unwanted side effects or complications.

It's best to consult with both your dermatologist and the professional who did your tattoo. They can provide personalized advice taking into account your specific situation, including the condition of your skin and the healing progress of your tattoo. They can also discuss the optimal timing for starting Accutane to ensure both your treatment and the healing of your tattoo proceed safely.
