Waxing and roaccutane

[WhyDelilah18]

I wondered if anyone had done this? I know you're not supposed to wax when you're taking it but wondered if anyone had anyway and what happened?

I'm on roaccutane and have continued to epilate even though you aren't meant to. I figured I'd keep doing it until it became uncomfortable/irritated the skin. 3 months in and fine so far.

I guess it depends on your dose and how your side effects are?

I couldn't do anything when I was on it, my skin was tissue paper thin and just ripped. Personally I would risk it.

I did my upper lip on roaccutane, big mistake. Took a layer of skin off and I had a red sore moustache for a week which was very hard to cover. And I was only on a low dose!

I wouldn't. It thins your skin making you more susceptible to infection.

How is your skin taking to the roaccutane? If it's very dry and thin then avoid. Also where do you want to wax?
