Does microdermabrasion help reduce the appearance of keratosis pilaris?

My best friend had the same problem as you (she is 30). This is what she did (after trying many at home remedies and a few medium chemical peels). She has a series of 8 microderma professional treatments and bought one of those at home kits and used it several times a week for a few weeks. Now the skin on her arms looks very good, it's like she never had the keratosis. she still uses the microderma kit once a week for maintenance. I believe its the body kit form Neutrogena, but there are a lot of other options out there that can help you.


microderma exfoliates only the top layer of skin, not hurting it in any way, but thus cleans the inside of pores and follicules and reduces the cicken skin appearance.


hope this helps.

yes it will. Also you should use an exfoliant and an acid (like retin A, glytone, etc) I'm trying to think of a company that makes a product just for that...I think its Glytone. Try looking online for someone that sells this product line. I used to work in skin care business.
