Reply Re: Salex for keratosis pilaris This must be pretty new because I haven't heard of it yet, but then again I haven't been to the dermatologist in quite a while either. Sounds like a great treatment though.

Reply Re: Salex for keratosis pilaris I was just given a prescription for Tazorac. I wonder why my derm didn't prescribe this. http://www.beautyfashionandstyle.com/eh.gif

Reply Re: Salex for keratosis pilaris Yup... didn't workhttp://www.beautyfashionandstyle.com/lonely.gif
I have only had KP for about a year (I just turned 29!) The derm said salex was new and I could be a guinea pig. I used as directed, and nothing. I also have been using KP duty. Nothing... poo!
I don't know what to do. Salex may work for you, though.

Reply Re: Salex for keratosis pilaris I too developed KP in my 20s on the back of my arms (as did my younger sister at the same age) -- never had it as a kid. Now my 2 year old son has it bad on his cheeks, arms, thighs & buttocks & his dermo recommended Salex which we've been using for 3 weeks with very little improvement (except on his face). We're going to continue it for another 3 weeks just to see if anything changes. If not, we'll start him on a treatment I found that works well for me.

I tried AmLactin/LacHydrin at the recommendation of my dermo & it did nothing. The best treatment I've found so far is "Paula's Choice 2% Beta Hydroxy Acid Lotion" (buy it on www.paulaschoice.com). Have been using for almost a year paired with using a loofah with "Dove Nutrium Body Wash" in the shower daily, and my arms look the best they have in years. Living in Arizona, I wear tank tops all the time & for the first year in a long time I am no longer self-conscious of my arms.

Before I discovered "Paula's Choice", I used "Neutrogena Multi-Vitamin Acne Treatment" which worked OK.

It's such a frustrating problem & I'm amazed that with so many people having this skin condition, that there hasn't been a cure or real treatment! Good luck & hope this helps.

Reply http://www.beautyfashionandstyle.com/smiling1.gif Salex lotion I have had kp for years and have been to many dermo docs. They kept giving me things that never worked. Finally a few months ago I went to a new dermo and he gave me some samples of Salex. A few days later all of my bumps were completly gone. It really worked for me. Try it.

Reply http://www.beautyfashionandstyle.com/smiling1.gif Salex I was born with "fish-like" skin, and have been to so many dermatologists through the years.

Salex is the ONLY thing that worked.... and immediately I might add.

Reply Re: SalexT for keratosis pilaris That sounds about right. A product that works well for some, but not for others. KP is elusive in that way. There's not a "universal" solution for KP. http://www.beautyfashionandstyle.com/blue_eyes.gif

Reply http://www.beautyfashionandstyle.com/smiling1.gif how do you use the salex? I saw some directions online for salex that said to soak the area for 5minutes with water before applying, then to put on a bandage or wrap afterwards until morning. Is that much work really necessary to see results?

How fast did you see results?
