Description
Dersol-40% Salicylic Acid Ointment is a high-concentration, topical keratolytic used in the treatment of hyperkeratotic skin conditions including plantar warts, corns, calluses, and chronic plaque psoriasis. With a powerful 40% concentration of Salicylic Acid, this ointment helps shed rough skin layers by softening keratin—the protein that causes thickening of the skin.
This formulation is not intended for cosmetic use but is rather prescribed by dermatologists for targeted, clinical management of hyperkeratosis and related conditions. The strength of this formulation requires professional guidance and should be used with care.
How It Works:
Salicylic acid is a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) that penetrates deep into the skin and exfoliates by breaking down the substance that causes skin cells to stick together. In high concentrations like 40%, it helps to remove layers of thickened skin and dissolve hard keratin plugs. This makes it useful for corn removal, wart treatment, and plaque softening in chronic cases of psoriasis.

- Chronic dermatitis with scaling
