Keratosis Pilaris: This is a common condition affecting people from across the spectrum of all ages. The treatment is generally simple with topical exfoliants, anti acne preperations, which help to turn over the superficial layers of skin for a healthier newer skin layer. This may cause some regness and itemporary inflammation and resolves with continued treatment. Severe cases may need prescription meds fro your dr
