Can Accutane cause poor wound healing after temporal lift surgery?

June 24, 2022
Asked By:XxJX in Scotland, United Kingdom

I will be having a temporal lift shortly, I have been prescribed accutane to help my thick skin after rhinoplasty. I haven't started taking yet as I have upcoming surgery, but I have read it can cause poor wound healing, I can't see a lot of intonation advising you have to wait 6 months before surgery, but I can't find much information on after surgery when li can start. I welcome others opinions
