Hi Guys,

I'm on accutane 30 mg /day and have been for about 4 months. I was wondering if I could have laser hair removal or is it a no go for all of that whilst on accutane?

cheers
Carly

It is not recommended to have laser hair removal while on accutane as it can cause significant scarring. Usually laser hair removal will be okay 6-12 months AFTER you are done with your course of accutane. I would recommend going to a dermatologist for the treatment and not a typical med spa or beauty shop.
