Can I use this on keratosis pilaris (chicken skin)?

Yes, this is specifically formulated to address keratosis pilaris and other texture concerns on arms, thighs, and other body areas. The 20% glycolic concentration effectively breaks down the keratin buildup.

How long before I see results?

Most patients notice smoother texture within 1-2 weeks, with significant improvement by 4 weeks. Consistency is key - daily use provides the best results for stubborn texture issues.

Is this too strong for sensitive areas?

Avoid using on face, neck, or intimate areas. This concentration is formulated specifically for thicker body skin. If you have sensitive skin, start with 2-3 applications per week.

Can I use this with other body products?

Yes, but avoid combining with other exfoliating products (scrubs, other acids). Follow with a moisturizer once the treatment has absorbed. Wait at least 20 minutes before applying other products.

About SkinCeuticals Body Retexturing Treatment

SkinCeuticals Body Retexturing Treatment delivers professional-grade exfoliation with 20% glycolic acid to address keratosis pilaris, rough elbows and knees, and uneven body texture. This potent alpha hydroxy acid works by breaking down the bonds between dead skin cells, promoting cellular turnover and revealing smoother, more refined skin underneath. The fast-absorbing, non-greasy formula is specifically designed for thicker body skin that can tolerate higher concentrations of active ingredients. Clinical testing shows significant improvement in skin smoothness and texture after 4 weeks of consistent use. This treatment is ideal for those struggling with bumpy 'chicken skin' on arms and thighs, rough patches on knees and elbows, or overall body texture concerns. The 6.8 fl oz bottle provides ample product for full-body application, making it an economical choice for comprehensive body care.

How to Use

Apply once daily in the evening to clean, dry skin. Start with 2-3 times per week and gradually increase to daily use as tolerated. Massage a thin layer into affected areas, focusing on rough patches like elbows, knees, and upper arms. Allow to absorb completely before applying additional products. Always follow with broad-spectrum SPF during the day as glycolic acid increases sun sensitivity.

Pro Tip from Our Clinicians

Pair with our Morpheus8 body treatments for enhanced texture improvement results. The glycolic acid preps the skin for better treatment penetration while maintaining results between sessions. Start slowly and always use SPF - Indiana sun can cause irritation with AHA use.
