What can you do for baby acne??!


Question: "Well, there are some things you should not do. Don't put creams or oils on your baby's skin, because these can make the acne worse. Don't use over-the-counter acne medicines. And don't scrub. Baby acne isn't caused by dirt.

In fact, too much washing can further irritate your baby's skin, so don't overdo the cleansing. Simply wash your baby's face with mild baby soap and water once a day. Gently pat it dry.

Patience is usually the best course of action. Your baby's acne doesn't bother him in the least, so try not to let it bother you, either. "

leave it alone.

Might be eczema. Should go see a doctor.

Babies get acne??!

alcohol and lotion put alcohol on your face or whereever you need it and then lotion

I believe you just leave it alone and it will clear up on it's own.

go to a doctor and they might give you something for it.

Acne is not, as far as I know, something a baby should be getting. Maybe it's something else?? Either way, see your pediatrician or better yet, a dermatolgist. This is something an expert should be treating, not people on an answers website.

it will go away on it's own. just keep baby clean by wiping him/her down with a warm moist (very soft) washcloth, immediately drying each area as you go, do the face and neck after every feeding, and give them an occasional bath with baby soap.

on a baby?!?!? go to its baby dr. k??? u need to get it checked

Its probably not acne. Does it look like small red scaly bumps or patches? If so, that is pretty common. Also, they might have cradle cap. Heres some links for you.

Take care :)
