What causes acne on baby's face?

Not only people entering puberty will get acne, but even newborns will get acne on their faces. What causes acne on newborns' faces? Why do newborns get acne on their faces? I believe that there must be many people who want to know the answer to this question. The doctor has given us the answer through the following content. If you want to know more, please take a look at the following content.

The small papules and pustules on the faces of some newborns are not really caused by blocked and inflamed sebaceous glands, but are caused by the blockage of the baby's sweat gland ducts, which are not fully developed. After a few weeks, when the baby's sweat glands develop normally, the small papules on the face will disappear.

Some babies will develop acne on their faces a few months after birth, which is basically the same in appearance as adolescent acne. Blackheads, papules, pustules and cysts may appear. This may be caused by a gonadal or adrenal tumor and is worth checking with a dermatologist or pediatrician.

Secondly, some babies may have eczema on their faces rather than acne in the usual sense. At this time, parents should pay attention to using warm water and non-alkaline bath agents to clean the baby's body when bathing the baby. For babies with intertrigo, special attention should be paid to cleaning the folds of the skin. When taking a bath, the shower gel must be rinsed off. After washing, wipe the moisture off the baby's body and apply a non-oily moisturizer to avoid hindering the normal breathing of the skin.

In general, parents should confirm what the pimples on their newborn's face are and then treat them accordingly. If the pimples on the newborn's face are too severe, he or she needs to be taken to a pediatric hospital for treatment in time and do not delay.
