Baby face acne

Baby acne, or acne neonatorum, resembles a rash on the face of the infant. It differs from milia (milk spots), another commonly found skin condition among infants and babies, in that it often produces a red color upon the skin rather than white blotches and bumps. In fact, it is often mistaken for a form of hives. Baby acne is very similar to adolescent and adult acne as it resembles red pimples or bumps. Blackheads, whiteheads and other types of pustules may also be found on the skin.
