Bioderma ABCDerm BabySquam is a cream for occasional targeted care of dry skin in infants and children with cradle cap. It moisturises affected areas, softens scales and makes them easier to remove. It is suitable for treating the scalp, eyebrows and the area behind the ears.

Key Benefits

• Softens cradle cap scales and makes them easier to detach.
• Moisturises dry skin; corneometric measurements in 10 adult volunteers demonstrated an 81% increase in hydration after 2 hours.
• Non-sticky after application and easy to rinse out with a gentle shampoo or ABCDerm product.
• Fragrance-free and formulated to avoid stinging the eyes.
• In a two-week user test conducted under paediatric supervision, cradle cap removal and easy rinsing with shampoo were recorded in 100% of 15 children aged 2–21 months.

The cream combines moisturisation with scale softening and easy rinsing, enabling targeted care of areas affected by cradle cap.
