A member asked:
Could apple cider vinegar cause permanent damage to your face?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Apple Cider Vinegar: I understand your concern. If apple cider vinegar is in contact with skin of the face for up to 20 seconds, it is likely that there will not be harm. If it is left for over 2 hours, there may be risk of chemical burn injuries. Your Face is Precious! Consult a Dermatologist.
