scoligirl 0 Posted October 2, 2008 You should probably ask your derm. I'm thinking it's not such a good idea since your skin becomes so sensitive while on accutane and the healing process is typically longer than normal. But talk to your doctor...

Siava 55 Posted October 3, 2008 It's definitely not a good idea. The skin gets very fragile while on Accutane. But still, ask your doctor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
devendralover 3 Posted October 3, 2008 Heck no it is not safe to get a tattoo while on tane. Your skin is so thin and sensative. I think if you got a tattoo not only would it hurt like a b**** but it would scab really bad and probably end up looking like crap. You will proabably have to wait atleast 6 months after your course to get one but like everyone else says ask your derm. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beaty83 0 Posted October 3, 2008 only speaking for myself but I have a huge piece that goes form my knee up to my arm pit and I got a bit of the color worked on recently and Im on 80 mg of Sotret and I healed fine..but again I am speaking for myself..I agree maybe not a good idea since everyone is different I just got lucky with that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
