Try getting in more fluids. I went through the same thing. I upped my fluid and my skin started to improve.

Vitamin E oil works well

Definitely fluids, I'm at the same point as you, had surgery 11-21 and no lotion works on mine either. But I got more Water in and saw improvements a few days later. Sorry you're having this issue. Best wishes.

I have noticed not the dry skin. But rather the cracked heels of my feet. I researched causes for this online and it stated being dehydrated. I think I am just not hydrated enough and have made a vow to work harder on getting more fluids in to help avoid this.

6 months out and my skin is horrible. I use Gold Bond for Eczema it works great.

I use Dermol emollient but fluids are useful too.

I use generic Lubriderm.Works great.I out it on my feet too with socks.

Remedy skin repair cream with olivamine, I have very sensitive skin and lymphedema in my legs so I have to use moisturizer all of the time. This is one my physical therapist used for my massage treatments and I haven't used another since. You can buy on Amazon.
