Hi
Thanks for choosing Ask a Doctor platform
I can understand your concern. In this age neonatal acne is common and usually does not need any specific treatment. In most of the cases it resolves itself by 6 weeks of age. In such cases the skin lesion does not leave any scar.
So you need not to get overly worried. Just observe the lesions and if you are finding any significant increase in number or size please consult your pediatrician.
Acne should be differentiated from other skin rashes.Avoid using any oil or cream and Clean the lesions with lukewarm water.
I would request you to attach an image so that I better able to help you out.
I hope this helps.
I shall be glad to help if you have any more questions.
Regards

I have seen the attached image and it appears like milia. Other possibilty is neonatal acne.
You need not to worry as both these conditions are benign, does not need any specific treatment and do resolve gradually over a period of time.
Observe for any abnormal increase in number or size and if you notice any abnormality, please consult your pediatrician.
I shall be glad to help you further if needed.
