Doxycycline will not effect the ematrix procedure which is radiofrequency. I find that this treatment however, does very little for acne scars as compared to other RF devics like venus viva or skinfinity RF. Best, Dr. Emer.
I would definitely continue taking the oral antibiotic while on eMatrix since this will prevent you from further outbreaks. Best, Dr. Green
You can continue taking it but the best recommendation would be to be off of the antibiotics for a week prior to the treatment, if at all possible. Unlike lasers, sublative RF is not likely to affect the pigmentary status of the skin, i.e cause hyperpigmentation, if certain medications are taken as they may make the skin sensitive to light.

Actually I like patients on doxy during eMatrix as this is an anti-inflammatory medication. This can aid in healing times and prevent infection. CheersDr Davin Lim
