The short answer is, it's ok. It's ok to have botox, fillers when you are on Accutane. But you might want to avoid certain things like laser treatment on the skin, fractional lasers, skin lasers, essentially I would avoid or rather you should stop for a bit before getting laser treatment done. But for injectables, they are generally safe, unless your skin is really sensitive, at that point then maybe you may want to wait a bit before getting any of these.

What are the risks of getting Rejuran, Botox and fillers when on Roaccutane?
In my practice, I don't find that it is a problem. However I would be cautious if the Isotretioin dosage is excessively high as the skin would be prone to poor healing. I would rather wait for the dose to be about 40-50 mg a week before i commence the above injectables. Just a personal preference, but practices can differ amongst doctors.
