Dermatologist Questions Xerosis

What is the best treatment for xerosis?

My father has xerosis, and it is terrible for me to just see his skin be so excessively dry. We regularly use a cream on his skin that's water-based, but it's really not working. Do you have any recommendations for treatment?

Look at some of the newer products that have ceramides in them. Check out eucerin or aveeno products.

Quick cool showers using superfatted soap then moisturizers with combination of urea and lactic acidosis.
