Can Keratosis Pilaris Really Be Cured?

Keratosis Pilaris is a very common, benign skin ailment

, which appears as small, rough bumps on the skin around hair follicles. They normally manifest themselves on the upper arms, but have been known to appear on buttocks and thighs and can occur anywhere on the body, with the exception of palms of hands, and soles of feet. Globally, there are many sufferers, and due to frequent misdiagnosis, many of those are not aware that they have it. Current figures suggest that as many as 50% of adults and 80% of adolescents are affected, and the severity can vary from person to person. It is non-infectious, but tends to run in families, and been observed passing from one generation to another. Thus it is described as a chronic genetic skin ailment.

There are several sub-categories of Keratosis Pilaris and they include:-

Keratosis Pilaris Alba, appearing as rough dry skin without irritation.

Keratosis Pilaris Rubra, showing red, inflamed bumps.

Keratosis Pilaris Rubra Faciei, appearing as a red rash on the cheeks, and often confused with rosacea.

Keratosis Pilaris Atrophicans Faciei, where facial follicles atrophy (waste away) leaving small scar like depressions, similar to acne or chicken pox scars.

It has been stated by standard medical practitioners that Keratosis Pilaris is incurable, since currently available pharmaceutical treatments and products may only improve the appearance and suppleness of the skin, or at worst, cover it up. Among treatment options are products containing vitamin A, Lactic Acid, Glycolic Acid and Urea, all of which are mild peeling agents, exfoliants, microdermabrasion and various scar treatments, but there are alternatives. Many have tried shea butter and other skin products, without resolution, and the results may be only temporary. Some cases are known to clear spontaneously without treatment, but these are in the minority. It is suggested that Colloidal Silver may well be worth a try, since it has been seen successful in the treatment of eczema and psoriasis.

The best answer to treating Keratosis is to turn to someone who has successfully treated this condition.
