Hi
Thanks for your query.
I appreciate your concern for the safety of Kojiglo.

It contains kojic acid 2% as its main ingredient.
Kojic acid is a skin lightening agent is considered to be safe for long term use.
However, its usage may result in a skin condition called allergic contact dermatitis . Since your acne continued to grow so you are advised to consult your treating doctor for the alternate use of other effective and safer medications for acne like Hydroquinone or Tretinoin.

I hope i could give the answer for your query about kojiglo.

A feed back is appreciated.
