If the pediatrician confirms the diagnosis, then such a rash does not require treatment.
Doctors explain the appearance of acne by an excess of maternal hormones in the body. Usually by the end of the third month the rashes disappear without a trace.
Another common cause of facial rash is. Pink pimples occur as a result of overheating and poor hygiene of the child. In addition to the face, raised inflammations appear on the head and in the folds of the skin. With good care of the baby, the air temperature in the room is not higher than 21 degrees and sufficient air humidification, the rash goes away on its own.

How to get rid of baby rash on face?
Treatment of allergic rashes
If you suspect an allergic rash, it is recommended first of all to review the diet of the baby or his mother if the child is breastfed.
It is necessary to remove allergenic foods from the diet:
- chocolate, cocoa, exotic fruits;
- eggs, citrus fruits;
- whole cow's milk, store-bought yoghurts with fruit additives;
- confectionery;
- pickled vegetables;
- red fish, shrimp, seafood;
- fast food, semi-finished products, products with flavor enhancers and dyes.
It is advisable to switch to vegetable soups, dairy products and porridge until the cause of the allergy is determined.
To relieve skin irritation, as directed by a doctor, you can take antihistamines: Zyrtec, Eden, Erius, Zodak. Probiotics are recommended to restore intestinal microflora.
If the suspicion falls on a contact allergen, you should change household chemicals and children's cosmetics to hypoallergenic analogues.
At contact dermatitis It is necessary to review the baby’s wardrobe, remove synthetic clothes and bedding.
Sometimes in infants, a rash on the face is caused by toys made of low-quality material, pacifiers or pacifiers. Children who are fed formula milk are likely to be allergic to one of the components of the baby formula.
At home, for minor rashes on the face, I use sulfur, tar or resorcinol soap.
To dry weeping rashes, use medical talc, starch powder or white clay.
During infectious diseases The skin can only be helped by stimulation by taking echinacea tincture.
In the summer, you need to remember about the danger of insect bites, so before going out for a walk you need to use children's protective equipment - repellents. They create an invisible barrier on the skin that will repel insects.
The main measure for preventing skin rashes is attention to the health of children on the part of parents.
If parents suspect an infectious disease, they should call a pediatrician at home so as not to infect others. Moreover, if the child is not feeling well.
Whatever the cause of the rash on the face, you should not self-medicate. Skin rash accompanies great amount childhood diseases. Applying hormonal cream or alcohol-containing products without consulting a doctor can seriously aggravate the skin condition.
A rash on a child’s face is most often associated with allergies and the need to introduce a diet. Since the allergy is combined with symptoms that are unpleasant for the baby, the mother, as a rule, wanting to alleviate them for the child, immediately switches to a strict diet. Meanwhile, rashes on a child’s face may have various reasons, often quite trivial and not associated with any allergies. What causes a rash in a child and how to deal with it on the baby’s cheeks? Below is short review the most common causes and treatments.
Small red pimples (sometimes with a white tip) may appear on the baby's face in the first days after birth (sometimes later, even several months later). Acne is caused by the mother's hormones remaining in the baby's body, and not by contact with an allergen. Pimples on a child’s face are quite easy to distinguish from allergic reactions, because they look like separate rashes and do not merge into one erythema.
Acne in newborns is usually mild and disappears on its own within a few days or weeks after birth. They do not need to be lubricated with anything and should absolutely not be squeezed out. Just wash your baby's face boiled water. Acne that occurs in older children (after 3 months) may appear with greater severity. Then you should consult a doctor, preferably a dermatologist.
When your baby's skin gets overheated, it develops skin-colored blisters or small red rashes called rashes. They can thickly cover sweating surfaces of the body. The formations remain separated and do not merge into one erythema, as in the case of allergies. They form most often in places where the skin has problems with sweat evaporation: in the folds of the neck and hips, in the groin, on the bends of the elbows. In severe forms, they can cover the baby's face, chest, neck and back.

First of all, prickly heat should be prevented. Don't bundle up your baby, dress him according to the temperature environment in clothing made from natural fibers. Make sure the house is not too hot. If this type of rash appears, bathe your baby in water with the addition of starch or potassium permanganate. Ventilate your baby's skin frequently. Miliaria that does not go away after a few days or is infected with bacteria should be seen by a doctor.
The rash in a newborn may be a mildew. These are small milky-white papules on the nose or chin, characteristic of very young infants. Millet has nothing to do with allergies and is the result of clogging sebaceous glands, which do not yet work effectively in such young children.
Do not press on the rash. It is enough to wash the baby's face clean water. The skin will clear itself of them as the sebaceous glands mature, when your baby is 3 months old.
Skin irritation during teething
Many babies drool profusely during teething. The baby's cheeks and chin are constantly wet from saliva, and, in addition, the baby constantly touches them with his hands or rubs against the surface when he lies on his stomach.
Not surprisingly, this quickly leads to irritation of delicate skin and cheeks becoming rough and red. In fact, they may look like they're covered afterward. allergic rash. However, good care is enough to improve the appearance of your baby's skin.
The baby's face should be washed frequently with clean water, slightly dried and moisturized, for example, with a protective cream.
Food allergies
Changes on the baby's face (rash on the cheeks, for example) before the age of 3 months, as a rule, are not a consequence food allergies. It takes a little time before the body sensitizes a substance. In older children, a food allergy (most often to cow's milk protein) can cause a rash on the face that merges into erythema, the cheeks become red, rough, and the skin cracks and itches. Such erythematous changes on the cheeks can develop into atopic dermatitis. It often also occupies the bends of the elbows and knees, and sometimes the entire skin. It's heavy chronic illness, which most often begins by 1 year of life.
The rash on the cheeks is very itchy, the child cries and sleeps poorly. In addition to this, cracks and wounds on the skin are easily susceptible to bacterial, viral and fungal infections. A doctor's help is necessary. You need to choose skin lubricants that relieve itching, and antihistamines, supporting treatment. If skin changes are very serious, your doctor will likely prescribe steroid treatment. It will be necessary to use products (for bathing and lubricating during the day) that moisturize the sore skin. In case of food allergies important element treatment is a diet with the exclusion of irritating foods.
Predisposition to allergies can be checked immediately after childbirth. It is enough to take blood from the umbilical cord and find out the level of IgE antibodies. If it exceeds 15 units per milliliter, the newborn is prone to allergies (although it is not known what the allergy will be to). In this case, it is better to create conditions for him that will reduce the risk of pathology.
A rash or redness on a child’s cheeks may be a sign of a contact allergy, that is, increased sensitivity to substances that irritate the baby’s skin.
Most often, the “culprits” of the rash are cosmetical tools for children: face cream or bathing product. Allergies can be caused by the powder used to wash the baby's clothes.
It is necessary to identify and then eliminate the allergen - then the rash disappears without treatment. If changes persist, a visit to your doctor will be required.
Seborrheic dermatitis
Unlike allergy symptoms seborrheic dermatitis often appears already in the first days after birth. Infants have several levels of erythematous lesions with a golden-yellow hue, sometimes with exudate.
If seborrheic skin changes are not very serious, simply bathe your child in clean water with mild restorative agents and lubricate the skin with zinc preparations. In more severe forms The disease requires consultation with a doctor, preferably a dermatologist.
If the skin changes are severe or do not go away for a long time, you should visit a pediatrician with your child. The doctor will assess whether treatment should be started and will prescribe necessary therapy. If necessary, he will refer him to a dermatologist or allergist.
Steroid use
The use of drugs with steroids in children of the first year of life raises a lot of controversy. Of course, you cannot consume them thoughtlessly. However, sometimes they are necessary.
Used correctly steroid drugs will not harm the child. However, for such treatment to be safe and effective, several rules should be followed:
- You should not use steroids on your own without consulting your doctor. Not every change in a child’s cheeks requires such serious treatment.
- Worth finding good specialist, preferably a dermatologist or allergist, and strictly adhere to his recommendations.
- The doctor must prescribe medications that are appropriate for the child’s age in terms of the strength of the drug and its form (lotion, cream or ointment). When treating children, only mildly potent steroids (hydrocortisone derivatives) can be used, preferably in the form of a suspension, which is easier to use than a cream or ointment.
- Steroids for children should not be used for longer than 7 days.
- Particular care should be taken when applying the product to rashes on the face, neck, and also on the bends of the elbows and knees, because the skin in these places is thinner and absorbs the drug more intensely. Apply the product in a very thin layer, only in the area of skin irritation.
The rash in an infant may be various shapes– these can be various pimples, spots and papules. The causes of a rash in a child are very different. It may be the result of allergies, dermatological problems or infections caused by viral disease. When is a rash harmless, and when is specialist intervention required?

A rash on a child's face can have various causes. The diagnosis and treatment must be determined by a doctor. If your child has a rash on his cheeks, but other than that nothing bothers him, just watch the baby for a few days. Perhaps the rash will disappear and a visit to the doctor will not be necessary. When this does not happen, take your child to a dermatologist.

A rash caused by an infection is easy to recognize because it appears in certain areas and has characteristic “patterns.” Then you will need a visit to the pediatrician, who will assess the extent of the disease and prescribe an appropriate treatment method.
Children's skin is especially sensitive. Parents may be concerned about the appearance of a rash or redness. The reasons for this are different. Changes in the epidermis do not always signal the presence of diseases.

It is difficult to distinguish it from other conditions on your own. Difficulties with differentiation are associated with the presence of several varieties.
Miliaria rubra. The surface of the skin changes color. In severe cases, it turns bright pink. Rashes form with cloudy contents inside. A red tint to the epidermis indicates inflammation.
Crystal prickly heat. A large number of bubbles with transparent contents form on the skin. When touched and pressed, they burst easily. There is no redness with this form.
Papular miliaria. Manifested by the appearance pinpoint rash on the face and body. It can form quite large accumulations on the skin.
Infected heat rash. This is a complicated option. The diagnosis is made if microbes enter the wound formed when the vesicle ruptures. Bacteria provoke an inflammatory process.
Possible suppuration of the affected area. Possible deterioration in health, rise in temperature.
Rash appears due to problems with work sweat glands . Miliaria can be caused by various factors. The main ones are:
- indoor humidity;
- lack of hygiene;
- excessive insulation of the child;
