Way to prevent or heal skin thinning? my 7 weeks old baby was prescribed hydrocortisone 1% for a skin condition on her face. is this irreversible?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hydrocortisone: Personally I do not like to use steroids on a young infant's face unless absolutely necessary. The effects are not irreversible. Use warm water and aquaphor. In time the skin will replenish and become normal appearing again.
