For newborns and babies 0–6 months, sodium hyaluronate is usually safe. It helps skin hold water and is not commonly linked to allergies, cancer, or growth problems.
Use products that are specifically made for infants or labeled for newborn skin. Keep it simple: choose a baby lotion or wipe with few other active ingredients. Avoid medical or high‑concentration forms. Apply to small areas first and stop if you see any irritation.
Watch for any redness, swelling, blisters, or new rash after use—stop the product and check with your pediatrician. Avoid putting products on broken or infected skin. Safety reviewers note data gaps and recommend limits on concentration and attention to purity (Cosmetic Ingredient Review); Environment Canada has also flagged uncertainty about environmental effects. Also, do not use injectable or medical formulations—only topical baby products.
