A member asked:

Can i use peeling oil only on my knees even if im breastfeeding?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Peeling oil: appears to contain a combination of acids that are commonly used in many acne combinations, which are generally considered safe for use during pregnancy and lactation. Be sure to wash your hands well after application to avoid transferring any of the product to your baby.
