Thank you for your question. A side effect of Accutane is skin sensitivity, which increases the risk of scarring. In my opinion, any skin trauma or injuries should be attempted 6 months after stopping Accutane treatment. I recommend you consult with your prescribing physician regarding any further questions. Take care and good luck.
