Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per your case history of keratosis pilaris, my treatment advice is -
1. Use a Chlorhexidine soap like Devlone soap for daily use.
2. Apply a Tretinoin 0.025 %cream once at night on lesions.
3. Take a Vitamin A supplement once daily for 3 months.
If problem persists then consult a dermatologist.
Thanks.
