Kojic Acid is generally safe to use. It does not appear to have carcinogens or cancer causing agents. Some users with sensitive skin who used kojic acid over a prolong period of time reported to have developed contact dermatitis, a form of allergic skin reaction. In order to counter this side effect, researchers found that by adding another ingredient called topical corticosteroid can help diminish such adverse reaction.
So if you have sensitive skin, it is wise to consult a doctor for proper medical advice or treatment, even before you start using kojic acid products.
