Hi Ive had Keratosis Pilaris for as long as I can remember I am 22 now showing no signs of it getting better! The consition seems to be in the family as my sister also has it. I have it the same as everyone (arms, legs etc) else except that I also have it on the face and it is very red - which I have found embarrasing and quite depressing at times!I have tried numerous creams some of which help slightly but not making a huge difference! I have often thought about the laser hair removal thing because it seems the obvious solution with the problem being asociated with the hair follicle itself. I would be interested to know if this has worked for anyone as it may cost a lot of money to have it all done!!
