Can you get PRP under the eyes while on Accutane?

Question

I know PRP you use your own blood, and while you’re on Accutane you can’t donate blood.. so is it okay?

Anil R. Shah, MD · Answer

Hello RB5552! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant and one of the providers at Shah Facial Plastics. In general, PRP is contraindicated while taking Accutane. This is because Accutane is a potent chemical and thus the overall results of your PRP treatment may be affected. Therefore, it is recommended to discontinue Accutane for 6 months before undergoing any PRP treatments.

Anshul Gambhir, MD · Answer

Hi, that is a great question! PRP can be done while you are on Accutane to the under eyes. PRP combined with micro-needling should not be performed while on Accutane.
