Baby care solutions
Although owning the same structure, baby skin is particularly fragile and with a thinner stratum corneum, taking up to 3 years for its barrier function to resemble that of adults.
Therefore, it is prone to specific features such as dehydration, impaired skin barrier and altered pH that, although not serious, can worsen the quality of life and affect the parent-baby moments.
Among the most common conditions, we have:
- Atopic dermatitis / eczema: affecting around 20-30% of babies, especially in industrialized areas, it appears as red rashes that make the skin dry, itchy and scaly, first on face and scalp, then on elbows and knees.
- Diaper rash: the most common skin condition, it occurs when moisture from diaper causes irritation or growth of fungi / bacteria. It appears as a patchwork of bright red skin.
- Teething: a physiological process, teething is generally associated with gum discomforts, such as redness or swelling, as the tooth erupts through the gum surface.
