To treat baby acne, it is important to understand what it is first. With adult acne, your body produces hormones, which will stimulate to sebaceous glands to produce more oil. The oil production begins in your follicles and as your hair grows, it brings it out through the layers of the skin. The follicles become clogged with oil and bacteria and your skin becomes inflamed. In baby acne, it begins much the same only the hormones cross the placenta during birth and then stimulate the baby's sebaceous glands. Your baby's skin is irritated by those hormones and that is when the little pimply bumps occur. It can occur in one area or all over the body. Baby acne can also be caused by certain medications or if nursing, by ingesting something that is in the breast milk that could cause acne to flare up. When flared up, looks like little whiteheads and the skin may be red.
According to research, it's the oil in your sebaceous glands that causes your problems and not the oil in your French fries or in the stomach. Sure, it makes sense to follow a healthy diet, which involves greasy food, but avoiding such foods doesn't guarantee a clear complexion.
