Hello,
Since Accutane causes delayed wound healing and other side effects on skin like increased fragility of skin and hyper and hypopigmentation, so it is advisable to get cryotherapy done after you have completed the course of Accutane. I sincerely hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
