What is Keratosis Pilaris?
Keratosis Pilaris (commonly dubbed "KP" or "chicken skin") is a common skin disorder that effects nearly 50% of the worlds population. It creates overgrowth of skin around the hair follicle that presents itself as a raised, rough, bump. It is often quite noticeable and commonly affects the upper arms and legs, but can also be seen on the cheeks, back & buttocks in less common instances. Inflammation within each hair follicle can cause embarrassing pinpoint red or brown polka dots to form beneath each miniature mound of skin buildup.
Will my Keratosis Pilaris ever go away?
Since keratosis pilaris is genetically predetermined, it may not be curable but should be controllable. Treatment for keratosis pilaris is ongoing - if discontinued, skin begins reforming around hair follicles. Chronic maintenance is the best way to maintain smooth skin.
What can I use to control the bumps and redness associated with Keratosis Pilaris?
DERMAdoctor KP Duty combines buffered glycolic acid, urea and green tea to smooth the bumps, hydrate the skin and sooth redness and inflammation associated with Keratosis Pilaris.
How often should I apply DERMAdoctor KP Duty?
DERMAdoctor KP Duty should be applied twice daily until your skin texture normalizes.

Each individual case of KP is different, so you may need more or less applications while on a maintenance routine.
How long do I need to apply DERMAdoctor KP Duty before I see results?
Every case of KP is different with regard to its severity. Some people see results within a few days, while others need a few weeks. Generally speaking, treatment products should be given 4-6 weeks of continued use for the best results to be seen.
