Is it safe to do a carbon facial if I’m on medication for acne (like isotretinoin)?

Since isotretinoin (Accutane) is a potent medication that makes your skin extremely sensitive, you should definitely consult with your prescribing dermatologist before getting any laser or facial treatment, including a carbon facial. Your dermatologist knows your medical history and can give you the best advice on how your skin will react, what treatment you may need and when it's safe to proceed. It's always best to be cautious to avoid any potential complications.
