Anyone have keratosis pilaris and know good treatments for it?

Hi there.


I am an Aesthetician. (Skin Specialist) (Was a dental asst for years)


I would try Eucerin Creme. It will help over time. You can also try a lotion or creme that has alpha hydroxy in it to help shed the top layer of skin. I would not use acne meds on your extremities, they are too harsh.


Good luck and take care!

Reply:I have that on the back of my arms. so my dermotologist gave me like differin cream to use on it ( the same stuff they use for acne) and it works pretty well. and exfoliate in the shower
Reply:yeah i have that there really isn't a treatment for it (according to my dermatologist) but ive tried just putting acne medicine on it and it seems to work or just apply a body lotion onto it and that will work too

Exfoliating is the key. There is no cure, and really no proven treatment, but a moisturing lotion is weekly exfoliating never hurts ^_^
