I've been dealing with really rough and dry skin on my elbows and knees for a while now. My dermatologist recommended Lanaphilic 20% Ointment with urea, saying it should help soften and moisturize the skin. I've started using it, but I'm curious if anyone else has tried it and had good results. I've also been a bit worried about the possible side effects, especially the allergic reactions. Has anyone experienced any issues like that? Any tips or advice on using this ointment would be greatly appreciated!

I used this for a few weeks and it worked great. No side effects for me, but I did notice that it made my skin feel a bit oily. Just be aware of that.

I've been using it for a month now and my skin feels so much smoother! Just make sure to apply it at night so you don't get any stinging from sunlight.

I've tried a lot of stuff for my rough skin and this is the best I've found yet. I'm a convert.

Auto correcting my daughter's message, Lanaphilic doesn't work but she has tried a bunch of other stuff. Sorry for the confusion.

This stuff is a lifesaver! I’ve always had tough, dry skin on my hands, and this took care of the problem. My hands feel soft again.

I had a bit of itching initially, but it went away after a few days. Just be patient and give it some time to work.

I had a really bad allergic reaction. Rashes, itching, the whole deal, but I guess that's why they warn you about it.

If you’re using it on your face, be careful, because I got a rash. I don’t think that’s normal.

I tried it and didn’t see any improvements. I’ve had better luck with other creams, but everyone's skin is different, right?

I'm using it for the callouses on my feet. OMG it's way better than a pumice stone! I'm obsessed.
