Gordon Laboratories - Calicylic Exfoliating Cream, Treats Calluses, Cracks and Fissures on Feet, For Rough, Dry Skin, 2oz

Salicylic Cream is effective as an aid in treating callus conditions, cracks and fissures, and rough dry skin. This is due to the action of an exfoliator (Salicylic Acid) and a moisturizer (Urea). Salicylic Acid exerts a marked keratolytic action as it breaks down or dissolves the dead, scaly skin in the layer of the epidermal tissues known as the stratum corneum; and thereby makes room for new tissue growth. Urea adds elasticity to the skin to make it supple by drawing upon the body’s own moisture.
