How to solve goose bumps on chest skin

The skin on the chest appears like goose bumps, which is what we call chicken skin. In many cases, it is due to excessive keratinization of the skin caused by a lack of vitamin A. In the face of this problem, it is recommended to apply retinoic acid or salicylic acid to improve it.

Commonly known as "chicken skin", it is a phenomenon of excessive keratinization of the skin due to a lack of retinoic acid. It most commonly occurs on the front or outside of the arms and legs and is often mistaken for acne, pimples or unclean wash. The most common areas where it appears are the outer sides of the upper arms, calves, neck, and even the entire back. Some people have darker and rougher skin on their cheeks. Although the granularity is not very obvious, it is also considered "chicken skin." Due to keratinization at the opening of the sebaceous gland duct of the hair follicle, a "keratin plug" is formed, which hardens and causes the pores to become blocked. "Chicken skin" is not painful or itchy and will not cause disease, but it is extremely dry and flaky, and the raised areas are very dark in color, which greatly affects its appearance.

1. Apply retinoic acid and salicylic acid. It can make the skin appear crystal clear in a few days. But this is only an "emergency measure" and can only have a temporary effect. Moreover, if this treatment is frequently used, it will weaken the skin's barrier function, making the skin drier and more sensitive. Please use under the guidance of a doctor.

2. Fruit acid peel. It must be done under the guidance of a doctor.

3. Functional skin care products. There are many such products now, such as Mao Zhou Shu moisturizing cream. By the way, keratosis pilaris is commonly known as "chicken skin", and using such skin care products can also have a certain removal effect. It is recommended to use those that do not contain fruit acid ingredients.

4. The laser only burns the skin epidermis superficially, which makes the goose bumps disappear and the skin keratin grows again, and can solve the surface symptoms for a period of time.
