1. "Acid treatment" treatment

"Acid treatment" is no longer a new thing in various medical aesthetic projects. The most common ones used by the public are cosmetics containing "acid" used by beauty lovers (the acid content is limited to less than 3%). Consumers who purchase acid-containing cosmetics such as fruit acids and salicylic acid through regular channels do not need to be too nervous. Qualified acid-containing cosmetics generally have less risk, and daily use according to the instructions is generally no problem.

Cheap medicines, materials or equipment. For example, in the early stage, low-price promotion was used to attract beauty seekers, and the first few injections of leg-slimming injections were mixed with physiological saline.

But in our daily lives, we can see many people using so-called "mole-spotting pens" or "potions" to remove moles on many online shopping platforms or social apps. They are promoted to be effective in removing moles without recurrence. The comparison photos before and after treatment make people excited to try it. But in fact, it is easy to cause disfiguring phenomena such as infection, ulceration, and hypertrophic scars. This situation is extremely common in clinical practice, resulting in the need to spend more time and money to repair the negative consequences, and it may not be possible to recover as before.
