KP and tween / teen skin. To treat or not?
My tween has pretty bad KP. I don't think, from our conversations, that it bothers her and I don't want to make her feel like she needs to "fix" her beautiful body. She's also coming into the trickier teen years though so I want to be prepared.
Is KP something that needs to be treated? Is it harder to treat later if you don't try and stay on top of it? Does it get worse?
If it does need treating what is suitable for young skin? I was looking at the Cetaphil Gentle SA lotion.
I have had a look at other posts but most seem to focus on adult skin.
I don't want to be the parent who didn't help their kid cos they felt the treatment was only for older people and I don't want to be the parent who made their kid feel like they needed fixing!
The discussion question (so this isn't just a routine help question) is:
Does KP actually need treating if it doesn't bother you?
