Emollient treatment has a good safety profile and most of the ingredients used in formulations are nonirritant for sensitive newborn and infant skin. There is some evidence of the positive effects of emollient treatment in prevention of AD in predisposed populations. The relatively high cost of emollient treatment (vs regular infant skin-care routine) would support the necessity for further evaluation of their effectiveness in nonpredisposed populations.
