Caption: Hypochlorous acid: How it can benefit your skin. Hypochlorous acid is an alcohol-free, mild disinfectant solution that has recently gained popularity on TikTok. ”Hypochlorous acid is a naturally occurring substance in the human body, produced by white blood cells to fight off infections and heal wounds.” The expert explains that it is useful in treating various skin conditions because of its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. ”It can benefit the skin by reducing inflammation, killing bacteria, and promoting healing. It is effective in managing acne, eczema, and other skin irritations due to its gentle yet powerful antimicrobial action.” However, it is best to carry out a patch test before a full application to make sure the acid doesn't cause irritation or an allergic reaction. So, how should you use hypochlorous acid in your skincare routine? The dermatologist suggests, "Hypochlorous acid can be used after cleansing and before applying other treatments or moisturisers. It can be sprayed directly onto the skin or applied with a cotton pad. Using it in this way ensures that it can effectively target any bacteria or inflammation present on the skin.” According to Dr Hamed, you should avoid using hypochlorous acid with products that contain strong acids or alcohol, as these can potentially reduce its effectiveness or increase irritation.
