VeriMom¿Es dihydroxyacetone seguro durante el embarazo?
SCCS (final opinion, Mar 4, 2020) concluded DHA is safe for cosmetic leave‑on use up to 6.25% (hair) and up to 10% (self‑tanning/face creams), with no reproductive/pregnancy hazard identified. Published reviews note topical use gives minimal systemic uptake (~0.5%), so systemic exposure in pregnancy is low but measurable.

- ¿Es dihydroxyacetone seguro durante la lactancia?
- No authoritative classification or evidence of reproductive or lactation hazard; SCCS assessed cosmetic safety and did not flag breastfeeding/lactation risks. Dermal use produces low but measurable systemic levels, so exposure via milk is theoretically possible but not documented. ([health.ec.europa.eu](https://health.ec.europa.eu/publications/dihydroxyacetone-dha-13-dihydroxy-2-propanone-cas-no-96-26-4_en))
- ¿Es dihydroxyacetone seguro para la piel del bebé?
- No infant‑specific developmental or dermal toxicity data were identified and authoritative reviews (SCCS) did not flag child/infant hazards. Because DHA has measurable dermal absorption in adults (low), baby skin exposure is increased (immature barrier, higher SA:BW), so exposure score is increased by +1 relative to adults. No evidence found to increase hazard or mechanism scores. ([health.ec.europa.eu](https://health.ec.europa.eu/publications/dihydroxyacetone-dha-13-dihydroxy-2-propanone-cas-no-96-26-4_en))
