I’ve almost always had acne problems on my chin, but lately more and more I’m noticing that it’s happening in a pattern… and that pattern is, directly from the corners of my mouth down!! It goes like in a line!

So my only thoughts are that the drooling is aggravating it. I know that this is common, for drool to cause baby acne… so why the heck can’t it be causing mine?

What I need from you all, is a solution… do i put vaseline on my chin and then cover it with something? (so as to repel the drool, whilst saving my pillowcase from the vaseline stains) Or do you have any other ideas?? If I just put like gauze or tissue on my chin, that won’t work well enough becaue the drool will just saturate it, and will end up making things worse because it will stay wet.
No, I’m not British. I had no idea the word ‘whilst’ was on the British side of the english language.

Anywho, I think I will make an appt with a dermatologist, but they take months to get in to see. So what could I try in the meantime? I like the idea of brushing and using a good mouthwash directly before bed and putting some acne lotion on. I think I’ll switch to white pillowcases, which won’t get damaged by acne lotion.

Any other ideas? And thanks everyone for your quick answers! I didn’t expect any answers yet, and there were 5 already!!
I meant to add that, yes, I likely do have sleep apnea. I’ve not been tested for it though. I suppose I should go ahead and make the appt for a sleep study while (hehe, not whilst), I’m making the derm. appt.

Thats actually really cool. I always thought that saliva could dry out acne but I guess if you think about it saliva has bacteria in it and the mouth is the most dirtiest place on your body (belive it or not). So i guess it makes sense. Tyr brushing your teeth and rinsing with some good mouth wash before you go to bed. Also put some acne lotion on your face so that there will be a layer of protection while you sleep. Vaseline might make it worse.

These small whiteheads might be surrounded by reddish skin. They can become more pronounced when your baby is hot or fussy or if his skin is irritated by saliva, spit-up milk, or fabric that’s a little rough or that’s been washed in strong detergent.

By the way, if your baby had tiny bumps on his face at birth that disappeared within a few weeks, these are called milia and they’re unrelated to acne. If the irritation looks more rashy or scaly than pimply or it appears elsewhere on his body, your baby may have another condition, such as cradle cap or eczema.

What could be causing my baby’s acne?
As with adolescent acne, there’s no clear answer. For some time, experts have pointed to the hormones babies receive from their mother at the end of pregnancy as a cause of baby acne. But researchers continue to study other factors and have yet to agree on one culprit. If you take certain medications while nursing, for example, or if your baby takes certain medications, they might trigger baby acne.

How long will it last?
Baby acne usually clears up within a few weeks, but it can linger for months. If it doesn’t clear up within three months or you’re concerned about it, talk with your baby’s doctor.

What can I do about my baby’s complexion in the meantime?
Well, there are some things you should not do. Don’t put creams or oils on your baby’s skin, because these can make the acne worse. Don’t use over-the-counter acne medicines. And don’t scrub. Baby acne isn’t caused by dirt.

In fact, too much washing can further irritate your baby’s skin, so don’t overdo the cleansing. Simply wash your baby’s face with mild baby soap and water once a day. Gently pat it dry.

Patience is usually the best course of action. Your baby’s

Here is an excerpt from Drgreene.com:

o many parents’ dismay, their beautiful newborn’s face breaks out with red bumps. This is called baby acne. It tends to occur at about the same age as the baby’s peak gas production and fussiness. How attractive! (This all coincides with parents’ maximum sleep deprivation.) Parents are often quite concerned both about how these bumps look and about their significance.

These bumps, Beckie, are quickly fleeting evidence of the connection between your body and your son’s. During the final moments of your pregnancy, your hormones crossed the placenta into your son. Among other things (such as maturing his lungs), this stimulated the oil glands on your son’s skin, eventually giving rise to the baby acne.

Fleshy or red pimples can be present at birth, but typically appear at 3 to 4 weeks of age. They occur predominately on the cheeks, but are also quite common on the forehead and chin. Whiteheads are sometimes present. This condition tends to come and go until the baby is between 4 and 6 months old.

The acne will be most prominent when your son is hot or fussy (increased blood flow to the skin), or when his skin is irritated. If his skin comes into contact with cloth laundered in harsh detergents, or becomes wet from saliva or milk that he has spit up, the condition may appear worse for several days.

Gently cleanse his face once a day with water, and perhaps a mild baby soap. Oils and lotions do not help, and may aggravate the condition. If the acne is severe or lasts beyond 6 months, your pediatrician may prescribe a mild medicine to help.

Otherwise, you can expect that the rash will soon be a memory. The oil glands will disappear, and you won’t see the acne again until you turn around once, and he’s a teenager. This time the acne will be evidence that his own hormones are turning him into a man.
