FIGURE 1

A 2‐month‐year old girl presented with moderate cradle cap, characterized by yellowish adherent scales involving most of the scalp and the eyebrows (A). Dermoscopy evaluation (X10) of the affected area showed moderate erythema and scaling (C). The mother had been empirically applying olive oil as emollient with no improvement. Microbiological evaluation prior to treatment showed the presence of abundant Staphyloccus aureus and Malassezia spp colonies. After 30 days of treatment with the tested gel cream, used twice daily, clinical examination showed an excellent clinical response (B). The clinical result was confirmed by dermoscopy (D). Skin swabs at the end of treatment revealed normal skin flora
