CeraVe Rough & Bumpy Skincare

How can I improve rough and bumpy skin?

Rough and bumpy skin is often caused by dryness, dead skin cell build-up, or keratosis pilaris (KP). To improve texture, use products with salicylic acid to exfoliate dead skin cells and ceramides to restore the skin barrier. CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser gently removes impurities, while CeraVe SA Smoothing Moisturising Cream hydrates and smooths rough areas without irritation.

Does CeraVe Rough & Bumpy Skin work?

Yes, the CeraVe SA range is developed with dermatologists to exfoliate and hydrate at the same time. Salicylic acid removes dead skin, while ceramides and hyaluronic acid restore moisture. With consistent use, many people see visible improvements in skin texture.

Does CeraVe have a treatment for very dry, rough patches?

Yes. For extremely dry, rough areas, CeraVe Advanced Repair Ointment provides intense moisture and helps restore the skin barrier. It’s ideal for areas prone to cracks, dryness, and irritation.

Is the CeraVe SA Smoothing Moisturising Cream suitable for daily use?

Yes, the CeraVe SA Smoothing Moisturising Cream is formulated for daily use. It provides gentle exfoliation and deep hydration to soften rough, bumpy skin. With salicylic acid, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid, it keeps skin moisturised while gradually improving texture.

Can I put CeraVe Rough & Bumpy Skin products on my face?

Yes, but it's best to patch-test first if you have sensitive skin. The CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser is gentle yet effective for both the face and body, helping to refine rough texture without stripping moisture.

Does CeraVe work for keratosis pilaris?

Yes, CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser and Moisturising Cream help soften and smooth KP by removing keratin build-up that clogs hair follicles. Salicylic acid exfoliates, while ceramides help keep skin hydrated and healthy.

What is the fastest way to get rid of keratosis pilaris?

There is no instant cure, but consistent use of exfoliating and hydrating products like CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser and Moisturising Cream can significantly improve skin texture within a few weeks. Keeping skin moisturised and avoiding harsh scrubbing also helps prevent further irritation.

Should you exfoliate keratosis pilaris every day?

Yes, but gently. Over-exfoliating can cause redness and irritation, so it’s best to use CeraVe SA Smoothing Moisturising Cream, which provides continuous exfoliation while maintaining hydration.

How long does it take for CeraVe to work on KP?

Results vary, but many people notice smoother skin within 2 to 4 weeks with consistent use of CeraVe SA Smoothing Cleanser and Moisturising Cream. Long-term hydration and exfoliation are key to managing keratosis pilaris effectively.
