Glycolic Acid and Tranexamic Acid Compatibility
Compatibility of Glycolic Acid and Tranexamic Acid To explore the way of skin care for
husband, drug compatibility is very important. Glycolic Acid and Tranexamic Acid are both used in the field of skin care, but whether they can be used together needs to be explored in detail.

Glycolic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid, which has the ability to promote the renewal of the stratum corneum, can make the skin smooth and delicate, and can improve the absorption of other ingredients by the skin. It acts on the skin and can loosen the connection between keratinocytes, causing old waste keratin to shed.

Tranexamic acid, originally a hemostatic drug, was later found to be quite effective in skin whitening. It can inhibit tyrosinase activity, reduce melanin production, and then achieve the purpose of whitening light spots.

As for whether the two can be used in combination, from the perspective of chemical properties, glycolic acid is acidic. Although tranexamic acid has certain stability, it may affect its chemical structure and activity in an acidic environment. At the application level of the skin, glycolic acid can cause the stratum corneum of the skin to thin and enhance the permeability of the skin. If tranexamic acid is used in combination at this time, it may cause excessive absorption of tranexamic acid by the skin, causing adverse reactions such as skin allergies, redness and swelling.

There are also studies trying to combine the two. Some experiments have shown that the combination of low-concentration glycolic acid and tranexamic acid does not cause serious adverse phenomena in some skin types, and seems to have synergistic whitening and skin improvement effects. However, this is only a part of the situation, and the tolerance of different individuals varies greatly.

In summary, although the compatibility of glycolic acid and tranexamic acid has the potential for synergy, there are also risks. Users must be cautious, try it before the local skin, and pay close attention to the skin reaction. If you want to use it together, it is advisable to consult a professional dermatologist or skin care expert, and obtain professional guidance according to your own skin condition.
