Erythema toxicum neonatorum, neonatal cephalic pustulosis, transient neonatal pustular melanosis, folliculitis, miliaria and milia are often ruled out before diagnosis. [4] [7] Some experts consider neonatal cephalic pustulosis (NCP) a form of neonatal acne while others do not. [5] NCP presents with facial papules and pustules but no comedones.
Milia is labeled at bottom right. A milium (pl.: milia), also called a milk spot or an oil seed, [1] is a clog of the eccrine sweat gland. It is a keratin-filled cyst that may appear just under the epidermis or on the roof of the mouth. [2] [3]: 780 Milia are commonly associated with newborn babies, but may appear on people of any age.
Neonatal milia: This type of milia, often present at birth, affects infants and young babies. The milia often appears on or around the nose. The milia often appears on or around the nose.
Miliaria occurs when sweat glands become clogged due to dead skin cells or bacteria such as Staphylococcus epidermidis, [9] a common bacterium that occurs on the skin, which is also associated with acne. The trapped sweat leads to irritation (prickling), itching, and a rash of very small blisters, usually in a localized area of the skin.
3. Exfoliate regularly. Regular exfoliation with an alpha hydroxy acid (like glycolic or lactic acids) will help clear out dead skin cells, and salicylic acid (a beta hydroxy acid) will help tone ...
Neonatal acne (acne infantum, acne neonatorum, neonatal cephalic pustulosis) ... Milia-like calcinosis; Morquio's disease (mucopolysaccharidosis type IV)
Neonatal pustular eruptions are a group of disorders characterized by various forms of pustulosis (rashes consisting at least in part of pustules) seen in the first four weeks of life. [ 1 ] This grouping can help aid in differential diagnosis .
Infantile acne has a later onset and is less commonly seen than neonatal acne, occurring between 6 weeks to 1 year of age. It is also more commonly seen in boys rather than girls. [3] Infantile acne tends to be more inflammatory and wide spread than neonatal acne. It presents with both open and closed comedones, papules and pustules.
