My keratosis pilaris is really bad all over my body arms, chest, stomach, legs, shoulders, thighs. I've seen multiple dermatologists but nothing has worked so far. Right now I'm using Retino-A 0.0025 but even that isn't helping much. Are there any laser treatments or plastic surgery options for KP in Mumbai?

View allI'm really worried about using Emolene because I keep hearing it's packed with chemicals and might not be safe. My skin is super sensitive and dry, and I'm afraid it might cause breakouts. Do you think it's okay to use, or should I look for something else?
Emolene cream is generally considered safe for use on sensitive and dry skin. It is a moisturizing cream that helps to hydrate and soothe the skin. However, as with any skincare product, there is a possibility of individual sensitivity or allergic reactions to certain ingredients. It is always recommended to do a patch test before using it on a larger area of the skin. Emolene cream does not typically cause breakouts, but if you have a history of acne-prone skin, it is advisable to consult with a dermatologist before using it extensively. The key is to use a small amount initially and monitor how your skin reacts. If you experience any redness, itching, or irritation, discontinue use and seek medical advice.

I'm curious about which tablet would be better for skin whitening, Glutone 1000 or Glutone C. Can you help me understand the difference between the two and which one might be more effective? I'm a bit confused about which option to go for.
Glutone 1000 contains L-Glutathione which is a powerful antioxidant that helps in skin lightening and anti-aging. It is recommended for overall skin health and whitening. The usual dosage is 1 tablet daily. Glutone C, on the other hand, contains L-Glutathione along with Vitamin C. Vitamin C helps in enhancing the absorption of Glutathione in the body, leading to better results in skin whitening and brightening. The usual dosage is 1 tablet daily. If you are looking for a more potent formula with added benefits for skin health, Glutone C would be the better choice.
