Keratosis Pilaris

Description

Keratosis pilaris—also commonly known as “chicken skin,” “chicken bumps,” or “goose-bumps”—is a harmless but widespread skin condition caused by tiny follicular keratin plugs that create rough, bumpy patches on the skin. These small bumps, which often have a sandpapery or dry texture, most frequently appear on the upper arms, thighs, cheeks, or buttocks. Sometimes called follicular keratosis or lichen pilaris, keratosis pilaris is usually more noticeable in colder, drier seasons and can affect people of any age or skin type. While not dangerous, many people seek smooth, even skin by exploring treatments such as gentle exfoliation, moisturizing, or professional procedures like chemical peels—especially in popular medical tourism destinations like South Korea, renowned for advanced dermatological care. If you’re frustrated by stubborn “chicken skin” and seeking convenient, effective solutions, discover how leading-edge therapies and custom skincare can help reveal softer, clearer skin.
