Brief Answer:
Manufacturers have advised against it.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

The manufacturers have advised against using this product on sensitive areas such as the face, genitals, neck, chin, breast etc. This is because the product can cause scarring and make these areas to good to sight. For that reason, it is not advised to use it on these areas.

I hope this addresses you worry. I wish you well. Keep me posted and feel free to ask for any clarifications if need be.

Thank you for your reply Dr Ditah

If i do not mind the scarring is the product safe to use?

Brief Answer:
Yes, it is safe to use!

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

It is a safe product. While all products have a risk for some adverse effects, the benefits outweigh those risk each time it is used. Why don't you explore other options such as using Podophyllin or using nitrogen for freezing?

Hope I have answered your query.

I wish you well.
