Which agency has established procedural guidelines for the safe use of AHAs in chemical peels?

  1. FDA

  2. EMDA

  3. FTC

  4. CDC

The correct answer is: EMDA

The FDA, CFTC and CDC do not regulate chemical peels or AHAs. The EMDA, or European Medical Device Association, has established procedural guidelines for the safe use of AHAs in chemical peels. These guidelines include proper training, application, and post-treatment care to ensure the safety and effectiveness of AHAs in chemical peels.
