Acne in the newborn (also known as acne neonatorum) or baby acne is a common condition that affects roughly 20 percent of newborn babies.
Acne is actually very common in newborns. As with adult acne, it usually appears as some small whiteheads on the face, or less frequently on the back. These blemishs are different from the little bumps called milia that your baby may have had on her face at birth. Milia usually go away within two weeks. These hormones cross the placenta into your baby and after delivery they cause the oil glands on the skin to form bumps that look like pimples. Miliaria acne is rarely present at birth. It develops during the first week of life. It is associated with the warming of the baby by an incubator, occlusive dressings, clothing, or fever. Milia usually appear as white bumps on the skins surface distributed over the face and scalpInfants usually develop neonatal acne because of stimulation of the baby’s sebaceous glands by lingering maternal hormones after delivery.

So here we have another acne “miracle? cure, Bruunhause. But this one actually ticks me off! And I’m not easily ticked off?To start with, according to their website, this is named the “Strongest Acne Serum in the World?. Based on what? Did they actually test this against every possible acne serum available? Was there an independent study done or are they just talking crap?

Adult acne is definitely a common problem. Women are more likely to suffer from adult acne than are men. Adult acne, as well as teen acne, are caused by a variety of factors such as hormones leading to excess oil secretion, the hair duct closure and infection. How to get rid of adult acne depends on the type of acne you have.
