If you think that acne is a problem only teenagers and adults face, think again. Infants can also have signs of acne. They could have breakouts as early as 2-3 weeks after birth. Baby acne is more common in the in the facial area (cheeks, chin and forehead) and they can even have back acne in this early stage of life.
Baby acne should not be mistaken with milia or eczema. Milia are also known as milk spots. These are small, hard and white-colored spots that usually disappear in about two weeks. Eczema, on the other hand, is a type of skin inflammation and is more serious than acne. Symptoms of eczema include scaling and blisters. Whiteheads are also an issue and these are small bumps, either white or flesh-colored, that are caused by blocked pores. You would know that your child has acne if pimples start to appear within their first month.
Some medical studies show that baby acne could start forming while babies are still in their mother's womb. In the latter stage of pregnancy, a mother's hormones are passed through the placenta and are received by the fetus. This can actually stimulate your baby's oil glands and with the presence of oil, acne can easily appear. This is why some babies would appear to have red pimples even right after birth.
To prevent acne, be sure that you are not using strong detergents in washing your baby's clothes. Some detergents may contain harsh chemicals that can aggravate the skin. Immediately wipe any food, drinks, or saliva that may drip off from your baby's mouth as this may worsen baby acne.
Always see to it that your baby's face is cleaned with water and a mild soap every day. Do not try to scrub their face because baby's skin is so sensitive and scrubbing would cause reddening. Do not use any oils and lotions that are not recommended by your doctor. These may irritate your baby's skin easily. You should be alarmed if your baby's acne problem lasts for more than six months. It is important to get your doctor's advice if baby acne gets worse. |
