    Most treatments for ichthyosis are topical, which means that they are applied directly to the skin, not taken internally. Xeroderma is eaily treated by minimizing bathing and applying an emollient cream or mineral oil after bathing while the skin is still moist. Some forms of ichthyosis require two forms of treatment—a reduction in the amount of scale buildup and moisturizing of the underlying skin. Several agents are available for each purpose. Reduction in the amount of scale is achieved by keratolytics. Among this class of drugs are urea, lactic acid, and salicylic acid. Petrolatum, 60% propylene glycol, and glycerin are successful moisturizing agents, as are many commercially available products. Increased humidity of the ambient air is also helpful in preventing skin dryness.


    Apart from this I use called Neutrogena. The Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Facial Peel was discontinued. The replacement product is Neutrogena Ageless Restoratives 5 Minute Facial. I looked for it in the store. The UPC is 7050102561. The exfoliating ingredient that worked so well for me is called Mucor Miehei Extract and is a mushroom protein. It is expensive - $27.99 for a 1.7 oz. jar.
