Treatment 4 keratosis pilaris is always effective, but u can try reducing the appearance. You can go 2 the doctor and ask for akeratolytic cream (it can help reduce scaliness) or ask for tetracycline-type antibiotic.
However, antiseptic skin cleanser may get rid of them.
Also, try urea cream (like Carmol 20) and ask your pharmacist to mix it with 2% to 3% salicylic acid. (this will minimize the appearance of bumps) if that doesnt work...u need 2 see a dermatologist.
I can't guarentee anything since i havent tried it (because i dont have keratosis pilarsis)...hope it helps and good luck

There's really nothing you can do. Most people who get treatments for it are disappointed. The best thing to do is just live with it. A lot of people have it and it's not uncommon. Most people won't even notice it.
