Can Alpha Hydroxyl Acids (AHA) be used on the skin?
Yes, after the procedure area has completely healed. If done too early, the alpha hydroxyl acids may cause an adverse reaction making the skin overly sensitive. Use of Retin-A, steroid creams, glycolic acids, kojic acids, and any other exfoliating peels will thin the skin. Use of these products should be discontinued 2 weeks prior to the cosmetic tattoo procedure.
