more susceptible to irritation.Their skin, which is still sensitive, needs extra protection so that it doesn’t dry out easily or get rashes.
Pediatrician from Tzu Chi Hospital, Ian Suteja, explained that babies’ skin is not yet fully developed, so their resistance to weather changes is not as strong as that of adults.
“Babies’ skin easily becomes dry and irritated. If the baby is uncomfortable, sleep can be disturbed,” he said in a written statement, Monday (1/12).

In fact, Ian said, growth hormone is produced optimally during deep sleep, so skin health is closely related to optimal growth and development.
Why does extreme weather trigger irritation?
Erratic weather changes cause baby’s skin to face extreme conditions, heat which triggers excessive sweating, rain which increases humidity, and exposure to cold or damp air during floods.
This combination can cause prickly heat, red rashes, and repeated irritation.To prevent this, doctors emphasize the importance of maintaining skin moisture from an early age.
Ian said the way to protect baby’s skin from extreme weather attacks is by using three main ingredients which are usually found in baby care products.These three ingredients are needed by baby’s skin to keep its natural barrier strong, namely:
• Ceramide to strengthen the skin barrier.
• Oats to soothe redness and irritation.
• Microbiome to maintain the skin’s natural balance.
“These three ingredients are actually well known, but are often used separately. When combined, the results are much more optimal for baby’s skin,” said Ian.
The specialist doctor at Brawijaya Hospital, Sanitca Indah, emphasized that parents need to be more careful in choosing the products they use every day on their baby’s skin.
According to him, a safe product ideally meets the following three requirements, starting from being hypoallergenic tested, dermatologically tested, and free of dangerous and irritant ingredients.
“This is very important so that the baby’s skin does not experience a reaction that disturbs his comfort,” he said.
Sanitca also recommends using gentle soap, daily moisturizer, and minimizing exposure to extreme weather to reduce the risk of irritation.
CEO & Founder of GENTLY Baby, Nyoman Anjani, said that to develop baby health products, it is very important to carry out in-depth research to ensure the resulting formulation is safer and more effective for baby’s skin.
Research must also be carried out involving medical personnel so that each active ingredient used is truly suitable for baby’s skin, which is still sensitive and prone to irritation.
“All formulas must be hypoallergenic, dermatologically tested, and free of dangerous ingredients. The role of Medical Experts is important as a bridge between scientific knowledge and the needs of parents in caring for baby’s skin,” he said.
