Strawberry skin on legs and forearms
I hv keratosis pilaris on legs and hands. Its there since years. I go for waxing and laser is not an option. I use loofah and bodywash for bath and vaseline coco moisturiser. Can u suggest any medicated cream for the same. I was referred to some salycilic acid cream in 2018 and it provided some relief, but issue is still there. Im married and planning pregnancy after 2-3 months.
Also my arms, knees and ankle are darker than the rest of the body. Especially under the ankle, some area of skin is hard and dark. Please suggest. Attached pictures.

This condition is very resistant to treatment and especially if you continue using waxing as a hair removal method. So detailed history is required for the same to suggest medicines
