Keratosis Pilaris
Keratosis Pilaris (KP) is a common, benign skin condition characterised by small, rough bumps, often on the upper arms, thighs, and buttocks. It results from keratin build-up blocking hair follicles. Though harmless, keratosis pilaris can be aesthetically displeasing and may be managed with moisturisers and exfoliants.
