Flaky baby scalp? You’re not alone, and it’s not because of dirt. 👶💛
What you’re seeing is likely cradle cap — a common, harmless condition in babies.

✨ Use a soft baby brush to lift flakes.
🧴 Wash gently with a mild shampoo.
👩‍⚕️ Visit your pediatric dermatologist if flakes persist or spread.

Gentle care goes a long way in keeping your baby’s skin healthy and happy. 💕

Acne myths spread fast — but the truth clears faster.
I’ve seen many teens try “instant” cures like toothpaste, harsh scrubs, or viral hacks… only to end up with rashes or burns.

Here’s what really works:
💧 Gentle cleansing
🧴 Proper moisturization
🩹 Evidence-based acne treatment

Let’s guide teens toward healthy habits and real results — not internet myths. 💙

☀️ Even in November, the sun doesn’t take a break!

Many parents are surprised that UV rays in the Philippines stay strong year-round.
Before your kids head out to play or do sports:
🧴 Apply sunscreen on all exposed areas
👕 Use hats or light long sleeves when possible
💧 Reapply every 2 hours, especially after sweating

Consistent protection now means fewer sunburns—and healthier skin for years to come. 💛

Your baby’s skin should feel soft, not rough or itchy. 👶💧
If you notice red, dry patches that don’t go away—it might be eczema, not just “dry skin.”

Here’s how to help:
🛁 Keep baths short and lukewarm.
💧 Moisturize right after bathing.
👩‍⚕️ Seek early advice to prevent irritation or scarring.

Baby skin needs extra care—and it starts with gentle, consistent routines. 💙

Teen skin is full of change—but with the right habits, it doesn’t have to be full of breakouts. 💫

✨ Hormones make oil glands more active.
🧴 Gentle, consistent care is key.
🚫 Skip harsh scrubs—they can do more harm than good.

Acne prevention starts with balance, not over-cleansing. Build your routine around cleanse, moisturize, protect—simple steps that go a long way. 🌿

Your child’s skin changes as they grow—so should their soap! 💧

What worked for baby may not be enough for an active preschooler. Here’s how to tell:
👉 Skin feels dry or itchy after baths
👉 Baby soap no longer cleans well
👉 Sweat and dirt linger despite washing

Dermatologists recommend switching to a gentle, age-appropriate cleanser that supports healthy, balanced skin as your child grows.

Your baby’s skin is amazing—but it’s also delicate. 🍼

A newborn’s skin barrier is thinner and more sensitive, so it needs extra gentle care from day one. 💧
Here’s how I guide parents in clinic:
🧼 Choose mild, fragrance-free cleansers.
🧴 Moisturize right after bathing.
🧺 Avoid overwashing and harsh fabrics.

Healthy habits early on help protect your baby’s skin for life. 💗

🌍 Today is World Psoriasis Day.
As a pediatric dermatologist, I want families to know:

💜 Psoriasis is common, chronic, and manageable.
💜 Support and awareness reduce stigma for teens.
💜 Family partnership with your doctor builds the best care plan.
💜 Regular check-ups matter because psoriasis can also affect joints and overall health.

With the right care, teens can live confidently—beyond their skin condition. ✨

Psoriasis is more than just skin trouble. It’s a chronic condition that can affect teens both physically and emotionally. 💜

Here’s what every parent and teen should know:
🩹 Types: Plaque (thick, scaly patches) and Guttate (raindrop-like spots after strep throat)
🔎 Psoriasis vs. Eczema: Psoriasis = thicker, less itchy, outer surfaces. Eczema = itchier, inside folds.
🧴 Care: Moisturize, use gentle topical treatments, and protect skin from scratches/trauma to prevent new spots.

With the right care and medical guidance, psoriasis can be managed effectively. 👩‍⚕️
