A clinical guide to choosing the best AHA body lotion for keratosis pilaris, strawberry legs, and rough texture. Learn why strength and pH matter, why body skin needs different care, and how to get visible smoothing results safely.
Rough, bumpy body skin is not a moisture problem. It is a cell turnover problem. This in-depth guide explains how high-strength glycolic acid works at a biological level to resurface skin overnight, dissolve keratin plugs, and visibly smooth conditions such as keratosis pilaris and strawberry legs.
Many body lotions improve surface softness but do not address the underlying causes of rough or uneven texture. This in-depth guide explains why texture returns, what makes a body lotion truly texture-focused, and how modern formulations combine exfoliation, hydration, and barrier support to deliver longer-lasting results. Learn how a treatment-level body lotion can redefine what effective body care looks like for rough, bumpy, and keratosis pilaris-prone skin.

Glycolic acid can improve body texture when it is formulated specifically for the body and used consistently. This guide explains what works, why many products fail, where glycolic acid should not be applied, and how to use it correctly for smoother looking body skin.
