How to get rid of chicken skin on legs
To eliminate keratosis pilaris (commonly known as "chicken skin") on the legs, consider the following approaches:
1. Daily skincare: Maintain skin cleanliness and exfoliate regularly, but avoid over-exfoliation. Use moisturizing lotions or ointments to keep the skin hydrated. Drink plenty of water to maintain adequate hydration in the body.
2. Topical medications: Apply topical treatments such as tretinoin cream, vitamin E cream, or urea cream to help soften keratinized skin and improve the appearance of keratosis pilaris.
3. Oral medications: If caused by malnutrition or vitamin deficiency, oral supplements such as vitamins A and E capsules, vitamin E tablets, or compound vitamin B tablets may be taken for treatment. For severe cases, professional treatments such as laser therapy, photorejuvenation, or chemical peels (e.g., glycolic acid peels) can be considered.
