Quick answers to questions you may have

What's the difference between dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis?

Dandruff is the mildest form of seborrheic dermatitis, primarily characterized by flaking. Seborrheic dermatitis is more severe, involving redness, inflammation, itching, and often greasy, yellowish scales, potentially affecting other oily areas like the face.

Is seborrheic dermatitis curable?

Seborrheic dermatitis is a chronic condition, meaning it often requires ongoing management rather than a permanent cure. However, it is highly treatable, and symptoms can be effectively controlled with proper medical management.

How long does it take for treatments to work?

Symptom relief (reduced itchiness and flaking) often begins within a few days to weeks of starting treatment. Significant improvement in scalp health and reduction in inflammation typically occurs over 4-8 weeks.

Can dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis cause hair loss?

While dandruff itself doesn’t directly cause permanent hair loss, severe or chronic inflammation and intense scratching from seborrheic dermatitis can damage hair follicles and lead to temporary hair thinning or increased hair fall. Treating the condition can help restore normal hair growth.

What are common triggers for flare-ups?

Common triggers include stress, hormonal changes, cold and dry weather, infrequent hair washing, using harsh hair products, excessive sweating, and certain medical conditions or medications.
