Informazioni su Dandruff

Dandruff is a common scalp condition marked by flaking of the skin on your scalp. While it isn't contagious or serious, it can be embarrassing and sometimes difficult to treat. Mild dandruff can be treated with gentle shampooing, but more stubborn cases may need medicated shampoos or prescription treatments.

Sintomi Comuni

  • White, oily flakes of dead skin in hair and on shoulders
  • Itchy scalp
  • Scaly, crusty scalp
  • Red, irritated skin
  • Dry scalp
  • Flaking on eyebrows, beard, or around nose (seborrheic dermatitis)
  • Symptoms that worsen in fall and winter

Cause Comuni

  • Dry skin
  • Seborrheic dermatitis (oily, irritated skin)
  • Malassezia (yeast-like fungus on scalp)
  • Not shampooing enough
  • Sensitivity to hair care products (contact dermatitis)
  • Skin conditions like psoriasis or eczema
  • Stress and hormonal changes
  • Cold, dry weather

Opzioni di Trattamento

  • Prescription antifungal shampoos
  • Topical corticosteroid solutions
  • Ketoconazole treatments
  • Coal tar preparations
  • Salicylic acid treatments
  • Selenium sulfide prescriptions
  • Scalp care recommendations

  • •Scalp is very itchy or red

FAQ sul Trattamento di Dandruff

Can I get prescription dandruff treatment online?

Yes, our doctors can prescribe medicated shampoos, topical steroids, and antifungal treatments for stubborn dandruff. Prescriptions can be filled at any pharmacy.

What's the difference between dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis?

Dandruff affects only the scalp, while seborrheic dermatitis can also affect oily areas of the face and body. Our doctors can assess your condition and provide appropriate treatment.

Why isn't my dandruff going away with regular shampoo?

Persistent dandruff may be caused by fungal overgrowth or seborrheic dermatitis requiring prescription-strength treatments. Our doctors can recommend more effective options.

Can dandruff cause hair loss?

Severe dandruff and scalp conditions can contribute to hair loss through scratching and inflammation. Proper treatment can help prevent this. Our doctors can address both concerns.

How long does dandruff treatment take to work?

Prescription treatments typically show improvement within 2-4 weeks. Our doctors will explain how to use medications correctly and what results to expect.
