Can a baby who regularly uses skincare products avoid itching and redness, Doctor?

The Shiro Copr Many parents are still doubtful whether babies really need to use skincare products or not.

After all, just like adult skin, a baby's skin also needs care to remain moist, healthy, and protected.

One of the main purposes of using skincare on babies is to maintain the skin barrier, keeping it strong and protected from irritation, dry skin, and other problems.

A baby's skin is very sensitive, so parents must be careful in choosing safe skincare products that suit their child's needs.

Choose products specifically for babies, free from chemicals, fragrances, or alcohol that can cause irritation.

To learn more about the use of skincare for babies, we can directly ask a competent pediatrician such as Dr. Hans Natanael Sp.A, BCCS, CIMI, CBATR, C.HydroT.

Hans Natanael is a pediatrician.

She practices at Taksim Medika Clinic, Cibarusah, and several hospitals.

Question:

Using baby skincare to keep the baby's skin soft and prevent inflammation. Does it mean that if a baby uses skincare products regularly, it can prevent itching and redness that babies often experience?

Dr. Hans Natanael Sp.A, BCCS, CIMI, CBATR, C.HydroT replied:

If it is 100% avoided, then yes or no.

Does it enhance protection? Yes. And the most accurate answer is that it's not necessarily guaranteed that using this skincare product will definitely prevent itching and redness that often occur in babies.
