layer of skin

Salicylic acid is a keratolytic medicine (softens, separates, and causes desquamation (peeling) of the cornified epithelium or horny layer of skin).
Salicylic acid increases moisture in the skin and dissolves the substance that causes the skin cells to stick together.
It breaks down the clumps of keratin, removes dead skin cells, and softens the skin. Salicylic acid is also an anti-inflammatory agent and topical antibacterial.
Treats
It treats acne, dandruff, seborrhea (scaly patches and red skin mainly on the scalp) and removes corns and calluses.
Coal tar belongs to a class of drugs known as keratoplastic (thickens the keratin layers).
It works by removing dead cells from the skin’s top layer and slowing down skin cells’ growth.
This effect decreases scaling and dryness, thus relieving itchiness from various skin conditions.
