DERMAdoctor KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub — 16 fl oz with 10% AHA+PHA Exfoliation for Keratosis Pilaris & Rough, Bumpy Skin

This exfoliating body scrub blends chemical and physical resurfacing to target keratosis pilaris (KP), strawberry legs, ingrown hairs, razor bumps, and overall rough or uneven body texture. Developed by a board-certified dermatologist, the formula is hypoallergenic, cruelty-free, and clinically tested to balance effective exfoliation with skin tolerance, making it suitable for many who struggle with stubborn body bumps and discoloration.

How does this scrub reduce bumpy, rough skin?

The scrub pairs a 10% AHA + PHA acid complex (glycolic and lactic acids with gluconolactone and lactobionic acid) to chemically loosen dead skin and hydrated silica as a physical polish to slough away buildup. Together they help clear plugged pores, smooth raised bumps, and improve surface tone without aggressive irritation.

• 10% combined AHA + PHA blend for gentle chemical exfoliation
• Hydrated silica provides non-abrasive physical polishing
• Targets plugged follicles and reduces the appearance of KP and razor bumps
• Fragrance-free, sulfate-free, and dermatologist-tested for sensitivity

When should I use the scrub in my routine?

Use the scrub on damp skin during showering, 2–3 times weekly or as tolerated, to remove dead skin and prep the surface for moisturizers. It also works well before shaving or self-tanning to create a smoother base and help prevent post-shave ingrown hairs.

• Apply to wet skin, massage gently, then rinse thoroughly
• Best used before shaving or tanning to reduce bumps and catch missed flakes
• Follow with a hydrating body treatment to lock in softness
• Adjust frequency if you experience sensitivity—use less often as needed

Is this safe for sensitive or dry skin prone to KP?

The formula was developed to balance effectiveness with tolerance; it’s hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, and PETA-listed cruelty-free. PHAs in the blend offer milder, moisture-friendly exfoliation, making it a reasonable option for many with sensitive body skin, though patch testing is wise with active acids.

• Includes PHAs (gluconolactone, lactobionic acid) for gentler action
• Dermatologist-formulated and clinically tested for body use
• Free of sulfates and added fragrances to reduce irritation risk
• Suitable for areas like arms, thighs, chest, and bikini line when used properly

What visible benefits can I expect and when?

Regular use can lead to smoother-feeling skin, fewer visible bumps, and more even tone as dead skin and clogged pores are addressed. Results vary by individual, but many notice a difference in texture within a few weeks when combined with consistent hydration and sun protection.

• Improved skin texture and reduced bump prominence over weeks
• Fewer ingrown hairs and reduced razor-bump formation when used pre-shave
• Smoother canvas for self-tanning and makeup-free confidence on exposed areas
• Continued use helps maintain clearer pores and even skin tone

Who is this for: This product is designed for people dealing with keratosis pilaris, rough or bumpy body skin, strawberry legs, or recurring ingrown hairs who want a professional-strength exfoliant suitable for regular body use. It’s a good option for those seeking a combined chemical and physical approach from a dermatologist-formulated, fragrance-free formula; anyone with highly reactive skin or active open wounds should consult a dermatologist and patch test before regular use.
