Fetal fat is a white, greasy layer on the skin of a newborn baby. It does not require any special treatment, and most of it will fall off on its own as the skin metabolizes. If there is too much sebum, it can be removed by wiping it off with baby lotion.
Most newborns do not need any special treatment for excess sebum on the head, and it will be absorbed and eliminated gradually over time.
If there is too much baby fat on the head, it may accumulate in the skin folds. You can use an oily substance such as baby lotion to dissolve the sebum, thus removing it from the newborn’s head. Be careful not to rub it too hard repeatedly as this may cause skin damage.
When there is fetal fat on the head of a newborn baby that needs to be removed, do not rub vigorously so as not to cause skin damage. If you feel uncomfortable during the cleaning process, you should go to the hospital for medical treatment.
