Nose surgery - need to wait after tane ??

[carlosesca07 0]

One stupid question i haven't been able to ask my doc......in case you would have a nose surgery, if you took acutane (and finished it recently) do you have to wait to be able to get it ??

thanks

Yes because the sensitivity of your skin. Whilst on an accutane course, your skin is more prone to scarring (whether it be indented, hyperpigmentations, keloids, etc)..

Just speak to your doc. You're supposed to wait 6months, or until your sebum oil goes back to a 'normal' level.

yeah you would have to wait at least 4-6 months after your last pill

But I would go ahead and talk with the surgeon and set up a schudual and payment plan.

Yes, wait six months at least so your healing response has time to return to normal.
