Urea cream is a topical moisturizer used to treat dry, rough, and scaly skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and keratosis. It works by softening and hydrating the skin while also helping to remove dead skin cells. Urea has natural keratolytic properties, meaning it breaks down hardened or thickened skin, making it effective for conditions like calluses and cracked heels. Higher concentrations may also be used to treat nail disorders. Regular use of urea cream helps improve skin texture and retain moisture, promoting smoother and healthier skin.
