How long am i suppose to wait after accutane (80 mg per day) to do a chemical peel?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Chemical peel after : I advise my patients to wait six months or more after completing their Accutane course before a chemical peel. The wait time depends on the length of Accutane treatment course.
