Should i combine accutane with a skin care routine at the same time or first i finish my accutane course and then start a good skin care routine to maintain or even improve the skin?

  • Cleanser: Use a gentle, fragrance-free, non-foaming cleanser (e.g., CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser or Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser).
  • Moisturizer: Apply a rich, creamy moisturizer formulated for sensitive skin twice a day. Look for ingredients like ceramides and hyaluronic acid to repair your skin barrier.
  • Sunscreen: Accutane makes you highly sensitive to UV rays. Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ every single day.
  • Lip Care: Constantly apply a thick, long-lasting occlusive like Aquaphor or plain petroleum jelly.

Okay, also while on accutane i don't need tretinoin or exofoliatoing creams cuz accutane is already doing their job (removing acne, improves skin collagen and remove dead skin) is that right?
And then after accutane i add them to my skin routine?
