Dandruff

A prevalent skin issue that predominantly impacts the scalp, leaving white flakes of dead skin visible on the scalp and shoulders.

What is it?

Dandruff is frequently accompanied by scalp irritation. Multiple triggers for dandruff include parched skin, sensitivity to hair care products, insufficient shampooing, and a yeast-like fungus known as Malassezia. Dandruff usually affects adults and is more prevalent in males than females. Despite its common occurrence, it can be distressing and cause self-consciousness for those impacted by this condition. However, it's crucial to understand that dandruff is not a result of poor cleanliness, but it may become more noticeable if you do not cleanse your hair frequently.


How is it treated?

We can pinpoint the exact cause of your dandruff through a comprehensive scalp inspection, and if needed, we can run further tests to identify the root of the problem. Based on the cause and severity of your dandruff our board-certified dermatology providers may suggest medicated shampoos, creams or lotions. For more severe cases, we recommend prescription-grade shampoos or steroid lotions. We can also recommend instructions on proper hair maintenance and lifestyle changes to reduce your symptoms. With routine follow-up appointments, our dermatologists – based in Farmington Hills, Shelby Township, Clinton Township, Warren and St. Claire Shores, Michigan – can monitor your progress and modify treatment for ideal management of your dandruff.
