What Is Keratosis Pilaris?

Keratosis pilaris (KP) is a common, harmless skin condition that causes small, rough bumps to form on the skin, most often on the upper arms, thighs, cheeks, or buttocks. The bumps may look like persistent goosebumps or tiny pimples and can sometimes feel dry or slightly itchy, though they are generally painless.

KP occurs when keratin, a protein that protects the skin, builds up and blocks hair follicles. This buildup creates the characteristic rough texture many people notice. The condition is especially common in children and teenagers but affects people of all ages, and it often runs in families.

While keratosis pilaris is not a sign of anything serious, many people find it frustrating, particularly when it flares during dry or cold months. The good news is that with the right skincare routine and targeted treatments, significant improvement is very achievable.

Causes
Excess Keratin Buildup
Keratin clogs hair follicles, forming rough bumps.
Genetics
KP often runs in families and has a hereditary link.
Dry Skin
Low moisture levels worsen symptoms and texture.
Associated Skin Conditions
Eczema and ichthyosis increase KP likelihood.
Hormonal Changes
Puberty and pregnancy can trigger or worsen flares.
Symptoms
Small, Rough Bumps
Typically appear on upper arms, thighs, or cheeks.
Dry or Sandpaper-Like Texture
Skin feels rough to the touch, especially in winter.
Mild Redness or Irritation
Bumps may appear pink or red around the follicle.
Worsening in Cold, Dry Weather
Symptoms often flare during periods of low humidity.
TREATMENT OPTIONS

How Is Keratosis Pilaris Treated?

KP doesn't always require medical treatment, but when it's bothering you, several effective options can significantly improve texture and appearance.

We had such a wonderful experience at the dermatology office today. My 10-year-old daughter had a mole removed from her head, and honestly, I was much more nervous than she was! Dr. Lauren Page was absolutely phenomenal. She was kind, patient, reassuring, and made my daughter feel completely comfortable throughout the entire process. The facility was extremely clean, and every person we encountered was so friendly and welcoming. It made what could have been a stressful experience feel so much easier for both of us. We are so thankful for the wonderful care and would highly recommend Dr. Lauren Page and the entire team!

One of the best medical offices I’ve ever been to. Front desk was thorough friendly and professional. Nurse Peaches was caring and listened and explained things. Dr Haibo was fantastic!!! He knew what he was doing and explained so well. Asked several times if there was anything else he could do (he asked several times cuz I kept asking him things as they popped in my head) Highly recommend this hidden gem in Clinton. Best dermatologist I’ve been to. Worth the higher copay I had to pay to not use the other one.

I am a physician and I have been going to see Dr. Bill Kras for at least five years. This practice is very strong in melanoma prevention. Under leadership of well known Dr. Vasiloudes, they are aggressive about removing potentially dysplastic nevi. This is important to me because my father died of melanoma. I was shocked to learn that Dr. Kras has only been in the Derm space for eight years, because he seems so experienced. He is incredibly knowledgeable and dedicated to the field. He often speaks of things he has learned from his colleagues in the practice such as Dr. V and dermatopathologists. He is smart, thoughtful, and kind.

I have been a patient at Maryland Dermatology Institute for many years and have nothing but compliments for the doctors and the medical assistants. I’ve had many visits for routine skin checks/concerns about suspicious moles/ laser procedures. I am prone to basal cell ca. so it's reassuring I can easily schedule appointments. I usually see Dr. Margaret Weiss. I am so grateful for your expertise and caring approach. You are the best. This time I saw Dr. Noell. I was concerned about a spot that I thought might be a changing mole. Dr. Noell was very nice, professional, and reassuring. Thankfully it turned out to be benign.I highly recommend this dermatology practice..

What an outstanding experience this was. It is always alarming when you hear the word cancer. That strikes terror. This facility is just wonderful. They made me feel comfortable. listened, provided all the information regarding the procedure. My cancer is gone and now the healing begins. My suggestion is preparation is everything. Make sure you have all that you need for the first 24 to 48 hrs. Ask questions, write down your own questions. do exactly as prescribed and you will be great. Dr. Monte, his assistants, the front desk are consummate professionals. The waiting area is clean and inviting along with a coffee station. My word to everyone. WEAR YOUR SUNBLOCK. no tanning beds. and contact them if ever needed.

I received phone calls after each surgery from Dr. Bermudez. The first phone call concerned me, thinking they had found an issue. After listening to the voice mail, he was just calling to see how I was. Who does that anymore!!!!????? I highly recommend this practice!!!

I truly appreciated how knowledgeable and attentive they were. I never felt rushed during my appointment, and all my questions were answered with patience and care.

It had been years since I was at the dermatologist and I was a but anxious for this appointment. Turns out, that was not at all necessary! From check in with Jocelyn and Jaycee, to check out with Meghan (with interaction with Joann, too!), I felt welcomed as soon as I walked in, was 100% comfortable through the entire visit, and felt valued as a patient. The tech/assistant (I will butcher the spelling but her name reminded me of Marina) who escorted me to the exam room was super friendly and helped me be at ease with her explanation of what I should expect. The doctor I saw (Kerri), was so patient and thorough, making sure that all of my concerns were addressed and that I understood what she was doing during the head-to-toe exam.

Please let me express my gratitude to Dr. Wu. I had Vbeam lasers and Kenalog injections for my skin issues, and I’ve seen great improvements. Dr. Wu is very skillful in these procedures and answered all my questions with patience. It was a great treatment experience, and the staff are friendly as well. Highly recommended.

Check-in was immediate ! My wait to be called back was less than 10 minutes! The exam room looked neat clean and organized. Whitney and her assistant were very kind friendly and knowledgeable about my dermatologic issues . Treatment was efficient and painless (yay) and plan of care agreed upon seemed sound and wise. Very pleased with overall care!! Would recommend Whitney to anyone with even the most serious of skin conditions. I believe her knowledge and skill can be trusted to help any patient arrive at best possible outcome. So grateful she is my practitioner!

My experience at Anne Arundel Dermatology in Greenbelt, MD was excellent from my first appointment through the last visit. When I walked through the front door I was greeted by very friendly and efficient front desk staff and I never had to wait long to be called back to see the doctor. Also, all of the medical technicians and doctors were friendly, knowledgeable and very thorough in explaining all of the medical information. I would highly recommend Anne Arundel Dermatology in Greenbelt, MD to anyone looking for a very professional and customer-centric practice.

Dr. Dawn is so awesome, fast and has A very soothing, calming voice. This was my 2nd visit with a small procedure and it was a breeze! These ladies made me so comfortable and my mind was at ease!

Good visit. Long wait due to new software system. Being in IT, the data was not ported over correctly leaving the staff to enter the data. Understood that even the first and last names were switched and the staff had to change themselves. Before the next office is upgraded, I suggest the implementation plan be changed to perform more robust data conversion testing. This suggestion is made based on my 30 years in IT. The visit with Kevin Blazer was great and his assistant was wonderful. They answered all my questions very well.

My husband and I had CO2 laser done by Sharnel Reed, NP, and I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience We were both nervous going in especially my husband, who wasn’t convinced laser would be effective for men\. I’ve also had microneedling, chemical peels, and laser in the past, so I was worried this would be another disappointing experience. But Sharnel completely changed our minds,She was gentle, thorough, made sure we were comfortable, and took the time to educate us about our individual skin, concerns, and how to safely get the best results.The entire experience was a **360° turnaround from what we expected My husband was so impressed he said, I won’t let another woman touch my face if it’s not her,That says it all. Sharnel is absolutely amazing, and we definitely won’t be going to anyone else. We can’t wait to see our final results! 10/10 experience ❤️✨

I had a wonderful experience as a new patient here. I called after having severe flare ups with my chronic skin condition, HS, and was able to be seen by a dermatologist the next day! Everyone from the front desk staff to the assistants were warm and pleasant to speak with. Lina Weber was absolutely amazing. I was very nervous after having to have an abscess drained but she was patient and explained every step of the process to me as well as gave me several recommendations for daily products and long term treatment. I look forward to visiting this office again during my next visit!

ADDRESSING TOP KERATOSIS PILARIS CONCERNS

Your Keratosis Pilaris Questions, Answered

KP is a chronic condition, but symptoms can be managed effectively with consistent care and, in many cases, improve significantly over time.

No. KP is caused by an internal buildup of keratin and cannot be spread from person to person.

Cold, dry air strips moisture from the skin and worsens the keratin buildup that causes KP. Consistent moisturizing during colder months makes a meaningful difference.

Yes. KP can appear on the cheeks, particularly in children, and may be mistaken for acne or rosacea. A dermatologist can help confirm the diagnosis.

Some do, particularly those with lactic acid, urea, or salicylic acid. For more persistent cases, prescription-strength options or in-office treatments offer better results.

KP is typically diagnosed by visual examination. In cases where the presentation is unclear, your provider may recommend additional evaluation to rule out other conditions.

KP is most common in children and adolescents, but it can appear at any age and often persists into adulthood, particularly in people with a family history.
