What is Keratosis Pilaris & How Can You Treat It?


Keratosis pilaris is a common skin condition that causes rough, bumpy skin on the arms, thighs, and cheeks due to a buildup of keratin in the hair follicles. The best way to treat it is with gentle exfoliation and deep hydration to help smooth and soften the skin.

Best Glycolic Acid for Keratosis Pilaris


One of the most effective treatments for keratosis pilaris is glycolic acid, which works by exfoliating dead skin cells and unclogging hair follicles. Using a glycolic acid body lotion or cleanser can visibly reduce roughness and bumps over time.

Exfoliation is key to treating keratosis pilaris and rough skin texture

Use:

  • Chemical exfoliants like glycolic acid or lactic acid to gently dissolve dead skin.
  • Physical exfoliators like a gentle scrub or body brush (avoid over-exfoliating to prevent irritation).
  • Moisturizing body lotions to restore hydration and keep the skin soft.

Best Skincare Routine for Keratosis Pilaris

  • Cleanse with a mild, sulfate-free body wash to avoid irritation.
  • Exfoliate 2-3 times a week with a glycolic acid body scrub or lotion.
  • Moisturize daily with a hydrating cream containing urea, shea butter, or ceramides.
  • Use sunscreen to prevent further irritation and dark spots.

How Long Does It Take to See Results?


With consistent exfoliation and hydration, you may start to see improvements in keratosis pilaris within a few weeks. For best results, stick to a daily skincare routine and avoid harsh soaps or aggressive scrubbing.

Can Keratosis Pilaris Go Away on Its Own?


While keratosis pilaris is a harmless condition, it can persist without proper skincare. Regular use of the best glycolic acid for keratosis pilaris, along with hydrating and smoothing treatments, can greatly improve skin texture and appearance.
