I’ve have seen four dermatologists and they said it was eczema. It’s not eczema, that much I know. I’ve been using Ketoderm 2% for 7 weeks now. Can’t put anything on my face without getting a big peeling. How long does this fungus take to go away? I’m beginning to think it something else, ya think? I am very frustrated.
WAIT. WHAT? you just changed my life. I’ve had systemic skin yeast overgrowth before and never realized the flaking around my nose, eyebrows, and chin could be this. I love you. Thank you. Edit: the ‘die-off’ when treating this is brutal. I’d love a full video on the topic!
Seconding a video about the die-off from inflammation. I am immunodeficient and have chronic viral and fungal infections. Candida die-offs internally are the worst I ever had. I went crazy mentally for a few days!
Omg yes i would LOVE a video about this please!!! So many people suffer from candida overgrowth and have no clue. The die off is terrible but its SO worth it in the end!!!
Currently my toxic trait is tearing my scalp up to open sores bc I feel a bump or thickness or dryness.

I have had seborrhoeic dermatitis since I was a teenager. Only recently, I started to use Ketoconazole shampoo from Boots (UK drugstore) and my flaky scalp and ears are gone! The doctors, when i complained about it, never advised me ketoconazole shampoo🙄 Wish I had seen this video a long time ago to save me from the pain and discomfort from dermatitis.
I feel like a lot of these issues are usually a result of a deeper issue, I hate how we only treat things topically and don’t find the root cause. Because if I understood what was causing the issue I would stop that behaviour or fix the issue and I then wouldn’t even need to use the topical interventions, which usually don’t work or stop working after a while because the underlying issue is still there causing the problem 😂
But as there are many reasons that could cause this type of fungus, you can't go into them all for each person. But...this type of flaky skin, is caused by this fungus, this will treat that. That will fit in a short.
It's always in our diet or our environment. But people are so stubborn they dont want to be told they shouldn't eat a lot of what they're used to so they throw a topical solution on it.
OMG girl 😳😳 I've been dealing with this shit for YEARS and I never knew why. I guess I just thought it was weird dry skin. It gets pretty bad in my eyesbrows but i get it on my nose and ears too. In fact, there was one time it nearly got me in trouble. I've been in recovery since 2018 and on MMT/MAT and fortunately, I've worked my way up to only having to come in every 28 days to pick up my medication and do my drug screen as opposed to having to come daily and do weekly UAs. But about a year ago, i had to see the nurse practitioner for my yearly checkup and blood work before collecting my medication for the month. I did everything but when I went to the medication window, outta nowhere I was flagged for an observed drug screen and would have to come in daily until the results came back. I was so confused and upset since I live over an hour away but they wouldnt tell me what triggered it. I finally got it out of my counselor a few days later that the nurse practitioner had seen the flaky skin around my nose and decided I must've been snorting meth or something? Which was insane cuz my drug of choice was pain meds, not dope. Never tested positive for it or any other kinda of upper for that matter. I was FURIOUS and my counselor wasn't too pleased either cuz the NP lady hadn't bothered to speak to her before setting all that bullshit into motion. If she had, my counselor could've informed her that my skin has been like that for years and it was just flaky skin, not fucking meth residue. It was all cleared up within a few days and other than being pissed, I was okay since I had been stable for so long but the thought of them fucking with people like that really bothered me because playing games like that with someone that hasn't reached that level of stability could easily relapse because of it. It's a serious risk that can cost someone their lives.

I have inflammatory autoimmune seb derm. I can't use any moisturizers or creams bc it traps the oil and feeds the critters. I am resistant to the topical azoles too. I found zinc pyrithione and sulfur helped, along with keeping the oil low at all costs on my face. Unfortunately this triggers rosacea like symptoms. Cutting oils out of my diet and skincare also seems to help. It feels like everything that restores the skin barrier is a cream or has herbs fragrance, so it's a balancing act.
I am pasting my reply here to another commenter: Try a high-quality probiotic to treat your systemic yeast. Please, just try it! I have an autoimmune disorder and had the same problem with dandruff not knowing it was fungal. When my stress level was highest I even had painful thrush in my mouth. I drink kefir daily now (I don’t care for Kombucha) or yoghurt, and I used to periodically treat a a flare-up with a high dose of supplemental probiotics like Pearls. I would take 4x the recommended dose for healthy people. Not all probiotic supplements are created equal (the cheap ones don’t survive your stomach acids) so invest in one with an outer “shell.” If you want a list of brands I’ll be happy to share others that worked for me! Anyway, I no longer suffer with these infections and I rarely have to use even OTC anti-fungals unless I neglect to include probiotics in my diet. It has been life-changing! Read about how probiotics and your gut microbiome impact your immune system and even your mood, it’s fascinating!
@@carolyntalbot947 Wow, thank you for sharing, and I am sorry you had to deal with the horrible yeast as well. I'd love to know the brands if you're allowed to post. I've tried some probiotics in the past, but because what I have also is classified as an immunodeficiency, I tend to become ill. I either get constipation severely or a full-body histamine reaction when even eating regular yogurt, and the probiotics trigger my interstitial cystitis. I have been using the "regular nature food store brands" that are OTC, so maybe a purer one or one for people with histamine disorders would work. When I could take probiotics, I remember I reacted less poorly to eating foods (no runny nose, no facial flushing).
You really need to research more about what you eating! Inflammation starts if something is wrong in the body, something is missing, microbiome, gut bacteria, everything starts in your stomach, with stress and wrong food you are not doing yourself any favor
*slow blinks* thank you for this knowledge. I thought I just had eczema around/in my ears. Will need to speak to a dermatologist since I do have allergies.
My hair started falling out because of this condition. I tried every single haircare routine before I was diagnosed, and it made everything worse. We should talk about it so much more
I have seborrheic dermatitis on my scalp and eyebrows, I could never stop the flakey dry skin or the musty smell of my hair, once I switched to Ketoconazole shampoo it’s been a life changer, no more itchy dry skin or smelly hair!. I wish more drs were taught about the fungus side of dermatitis, it would save us all so much trauma and embarrassment 😅
For my sebhorric dermatitis friends, the Burt’s bees gentle cream cleanser has been my savior. When I go to the derm they tend to give me stuff I’m not comfortable putting on my face but using that cleanser and the skin fix moisturizer I have been able to keep it under control!
I was fighting this for the past few years getting progressively worse around my ears and eyebrows. Tried all sorts of different shampoos, oils, and moisturizers. I changed jobs and started drinking a large Smartwater exclusively every day. That was a big change for me since I had a tendency to go all day with just a small purfied water from the grocery store and never felt hydrated. also started using LaRoche Posay moisturizer when I hardly ever used moisturizer before. Those were the only changes to my routine and after a few weeks noticed it helped significantly, but it finally fully disappeared after using that Nizoral shampoo. My husband and I saw a TikTok about recommending it for dandruff and preventing hairloss from another dermatologist. I've only used it a few times but have had zero issues since! So happy I can wear dark colors again!
I had it around my nose, it got worse when I moisturized it, then I used anti dandruff shampoo and it cleared up! So guys all you need is a cheap bottle of head n shoulders or other anti dandruff shampoo Something NOT MOISTURIZING Apply near them wash off morning and evening or whatever Works really well
Oh wow! I used to have this. I accidentally discovered a solution. I quit using my favorite, homemade potion, and it came back. I discovered the key ingredient was sandalwood. Now I make sure I’m using sandalwood in my face moisturizers, homemade, of course. It’s never come back.
🥺 this explains a lot. Pimple popping vids flooded the Internet a few years ago, that made people paranoid over a tiny blocked pore. We all started picking at our skin, and I bet, doctors now get flooded with people worried about their skin!! I don't have this so far, but it definitely made me think. Thank you!
OMGOSH, I have wondered for a long time WHY I get this on one ear. I thought it was just dead skin build up. I also get it on my nose!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH I'LL BE BUYING THIS TO USE TODAY!!!
As far as I know seborrheic dermatitis is a chronic condition that will never fully clear. The fungus mentioned in the video is found on most people's skin, but on people with this condition there's too much of it. Now there are theories that this is because of an autoimmune disease or issues with the skin barrier. So while she mentions that moisturizers will feed the fungus, it may also restore the skin barrier a bit. I found that pure Vaseline (petroleum jelly) put on after a shower (when your skin is losing most moisture) will maintain the moisture in the skin and prevent flaking, without adding too much for the fungus to eat
Ketoconazole? It doesn't work for me. Fluconazole shampoo was the best thing they had on the market. No dispute here, different strokes for different folks
The shampoo works. Suffered with dandruff for over a decade. I tried EVERYTHING. My parents thought it was lice when I was a kid. No more face dryness or peeling. Dandruff is nearly nonexistent now. This is after maybe 4 washes.
@@AD-jq7ow my derm told me that is can be in individual places or multiple, for me I have it on my face mainly, my scalp, and my ears, my sister only has it on her scalp.
yes, my ears have been constantly itchy and I was just diagnosed w it. I’d recommend going to see a dermatologist if you can-I was prescribed a mixture of hydrocortisone and anti fungal cream-forgot what it’s called.
I had this problem before, I used Neutrogena T/Gel and it cleared it up mostly in one use, completely with the second use. Just be careful of getting it in your eyes, that stuff really burns the eyes haha
I got diagnosed with this decades ago, and have religiously used the blue shampoo as bodywash like my dermatologist recommended… it hasn’t ever really helped or went away. 😢
Omg I've had dryness and flaking in my eyebrows, eyelids and a lil around my nostrils 😢 thank you so much. I'll try the over the counter stuff. Thank you!
I had dandruff and flaky skin around my nose for YEARS and I always was told it because my skin was either dry or dirty. I had no idea it wasn’t my fault 😭 two washes with the (ANTIFUNGAL!!) dandruff shampoo and I haven’t had any dandruff since. Literally changed my life, I feel so much more confident
I have this and it flares up really bad when the weather starts to cool off. It’s actually really bad on my scalp to the point I’ve went through periods where I’ve had significant hair loss due to this. Selsun blue shampoo works really really well for my scalp and although I know I’m not SUPPOSED to lather my brows with it…I do when it gets really bad. (I do it really quickly and keep my eyes shut as tight as possible the whole time. I’m not recommending ANYONE do this. It’s just what I’ve done.)
Dr. I'm from Indonesia thank you so much for all of your information that really helps me. I've been dealing with seborrheic dermatitis, and i'm using any kind of ketoconazole 1-2% but that's not enough to help my scalp or even my face. Can you help me please myb there's something wrong in the lifestyle or foods that making it worse. Thank you so much ❤
So does dietary changes. Which is something a lot of people do, it’s also been studied which is why anecdotal evidence isn’t reliable as well as also misunderstanding a condition. It’s only temporary because if you stop using it or if you have a particularly bad flare, it sometimes doesn’t help. Fixing it internally also have those two variables but leaves an even more unrealistic approach as many cut our entire food groups or the majority, which isn’t sustainable especially for your health. Doing such can put your body in a form of stress and as it’s hormonal it can trigger the worsening of it every flare or extend the length of a bad flare up. Internally managing stress with meditation, exercise etc is good for health overall but there’s no way to completely control how your body/mind will react to any future situations. In said cases it’ll just reintroduce the flare ups (even if you’ve avoided having one for months) thus being a continuous cycle of dietary changes/restrictions, maintaining a habit of meditative practices + exercise routine to manage stress, trialling supplements meant to help and constantly spending money to find the next best thing to incorporate into said cycle. Even if you omit most of the tasks, focusing on one that you deem would work for said internal condition unfortunately can easily cause stress, physically or psychologically. There are bound to be days where you’d be sick or the condition flares when you least expect it, will leave you feeling defeated, stressed worrying if it means your current regime won’t work anymore. There is no cure for seborrheic dermatitis, you can only manage it, essentially putting it into ‘remission’. That could last years and years, while you could also have a small patch/lesion that you can’t see, that isn’t flaking and you haven’t noticed itching, it doesn’t mean you’re cured though just unable to see.
I used to have this behind my ear, it was bad to the point that there was blood behind my ears because of scratching all those flakes, my dermatologist just told me to apply coconut oil on it and wash my ears properly while bathing and it was gone in a week 😭
My disabled brother has this, but I don’t. Therefore, I never knew how to help him! Thank you so much! My dad and I always thought he needed to scrub and moisturize. Duh!
More people need to see this, I found out this is what was wrong with my skin for years and one month of ketoconazole from my dermatologist has drastically improved my overall quality of life lol
I fought this for almost a year! It got bad, and I was trying to deal with it myself. I would wash with Dove soap, then afterwards my skin felt dry so I would "de-bridge" with a wet washcloth to get the skin away. Next I use Gold Bond Ultimate hydrating lotion. Next day it looked the same.... and I'd do the same thing. 😢 Finally, I saw this, and started using ketoconazole shampoo as a face wash. My skin vwould feel dry so I used hydrocortisone cream. After 2 weeks my face is 110% better! 😊 No skin flakes, no redness, no dryness. My skin has never looked this smooth. 😊
ive been using your major fade system for about 2 weeks now and ive already seen a difference. i have hyperpigmentation from electrolysis, and those spots have fade quite a bit. looking forward to a few months from now ^_^ also i love the pumps used, i think i can efficiently use the products.
Shes absolutely right!! I get it around my nose an eyebrows an behind my my ears and have horrible dandruff i cant live without my ketoconzole shampoo!! I also use tea tree serum on my face an that cleared my face
I’ve gotten this in my brows for YEARS and I always thought it was just dry skin bc of hashimoto’s thyroid issues. I’d even take a soft toothbrush and use it with my face cleanser and I couldn’t get rid of it!! Thank you so much for telling me I wasn’t imagining it and how I can fix it. Dr always said it was just dry skin. 💗💗
Research Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS).Dermatographism is linked to hyperactive immune system reactivity when mast cells in the skin degranulate and release histamine and other inflammatory markers that make us itch with hives, cause redness & swelling, runny nose, itchy eyes etc. You’ll find heaps of info and you’ll have quite a few light bulb moments. Good luck
@@DeepikaSharma-ug5vv Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. It can happen to someone after exposure to a pathogen or environmental toxins. They are still learning about it, but it causes mast cells to release extra histamine into the body like allergies or dermatographia, hives, etc. People can get really sensitive to triggers in food (histamine) and skin products. A lot of the triggers for rosacea overlap in my personal experience. They still don't know what causes it but allergist/immunologists or functional medicine doctors tend to know more. Usually they treat it with antihistamines.
Had this issue for 8 years and it was because i was allergic to dairy. Stopped all dairy and i have been clear for almost a year. Don't even have to use any lotion what so ever. Face is soft and smooth.
I had this from the ages of 9 up until i was 18... i am 20 now and i still have a little bit of dermatitis / eczema on my eyelids but i brought it under control by using a toner with prebiotics and probiotics, hyaluronic acid and pure squalane oil 😄
Sooo i used so many different things that make my skin itchy and even worse for 30 years. I just ordered it and hope it will help Update: it worked im so happy cant stop touching my forhead its smooth like a peach no mor patches ❤ you changed my life all the scales are gone 🤗
I have this. You can get a shampoo from your dermatologist as well as a cream for your face. Also, Dove Dermacare has a shampoo and conditioner that really help as well. I put the rx shampoo on my scalp and let it sit for 10 minutes then I use the Dermacare shampoo on the rest of my hair. Then I condition it with the Dermacare conditioner. It has made such a difference with birth my skin and self confidence!!!
My flaking is due to psoriatic arthritis, and it causing psoriasis. It's not fungal - confirmed by my dermatology consultant. I tried all the medicated creams and they only helped a little. Guess what DID help. Estee Lauder Night Repair Serum. Yep. A serum that costs a bloody fortune. I've tried cheaper dupes with the same ingredients, but they just failed miserably.😢
Yes, I have crater size pores and to much sebaceous glands on my face and lots around the nose area. I have been using Vichy which has salicylic acid facial wash which is helping with my over abundance sebum and large pores. I also have that scaly skin which is a fungus and I am getting some results. When the fungus is gone I intend to use the Vichy face wash.
This sounds like a good plan! Maybe some tetracycline antibiotics would help to clear this up, and/or Accutane! Accutane is very good at shrinking pore size AND your oil glands too! @@Loulou47762
Girl...many scientific papers and literature reviews suggest that moisturizing does indeed HELP with seb derm; and no, it's not gonna create a "breeding ground" because your skin isn't a petri dish. These doctors nowadays are so incompetent smh.
I've been with my husband for over 20 years. Awhile back we thought the answer was an antiseptic. But it i only works very short term. I bought him the Nizoral scrub and whoa does that dry or the hair! But now I know the name for the best answer. Crossing my fingers and a Huge 👍 thanks!
My partner sent me this, and after using that shampoo on my face just once my skin has cleared up and is smooth for the first time in years, and my beard feels softer. Really appreciated this info. I also followed it up with cetaphil non-oil spf moisturizer and it seems to be a good combo. Plus, while I’m using this shampoo on my face, I grabbed Selsun Blue for my hair. Big difference in one night! Fingers crossed it holds up 🤞🏼
Yeah i had this all throughout highschool and it never went away, and at some point i just stopped caring and within like... A week, it was all gone and hasnt been back since
Since this video is discussing skin fungal infections I feel this is a good place to ask. Any tips for tinea versicolor? I’ve tried creams, pills, dandruff shampoo, everything and it’s starting to get worse on my neck and face 😢
Im not a professional at all, but i add a tiny bit of iodine to my face lotion before putting it on. It is extremely potent- you dont need alot to kill all types of microbials. 1:1,000 of water will disinfect water in 15mins. Theres quite a few studies you can find online about its efficacy
firstly, are you sure it's tinea versicolor? because if various antifungals don't work you might want to get back to the starting line and recheck the diagnosis
Clotrimazole did it for my ear which was a painful two year infection misdiagnosed as eustachian tube dysfunction, but now I will try ketoconazole as a study I see shows it's the best inhibitor, and the pain did come back after the clotrimazole, which isn't as effective. Thankyou.
Nah fam you don’t need anything fancy just rub some extra strength polysporin on it and it’ll be good! I did it once and NEVER had an issue with it and it has never reoccurred
That Nizoral stuff is awesome. Actually cures dandruff/fungal issues! It's expensive but other products like selsung blue just gives a temporary illusion of working for a bit.
@@aprilrahee idk of your making a joke or not. XD but the active ingredient is 1% ketoconazole. So pretty much any shampoo with that substance as the active ingredient should pretty much work about the same.

ive had severre seborrheic dermatitis since i was about 12, formed almost a helmet under my hair at the worst point. i knew it was causing my ears to flake but i never made the connection to the flaking in my eyebrows and on my nose. thanks, ill stop overmoisturizing :)
You know what is insane to me. I literally had an itch scalp on 1 side, so I bought this. I have always had dry skin in the fall around my nose and mouth, I used this on my face and literally use it like everyday. My skin is smooth and flake free, and cleared up. This entire time it was a fungus. Blew my mind.
I just went through this. I thought I was having a psoriasis flare but it wasn't responding to my normal treatment. I used a miconazole cream and my face cleared up really quickly. In my case I picked at my eyebrows and I guess I spread it. I have an autoimmune disorder so once I get fungus/yeast it's hard to get rid of. This worked so well
Oh gosh. I think you answered my problem Dr. Idress … l have this for four years now and no doctor has diagnosed my problem.

I drink kefir daily now (I don’t care for Kombucha) or yoghurt, and I used to periodically treat a a flare-up with a high dose of supplemental probiotics like Pearls. I would take 4x the recommended dose for healthy people. Not all probiotic supplements are created equal (the cheap ones don’t survive your stomach acids) so invest in one with an outer “shell.” If you want a list of brands I’ll be happy to share others that worked for me!
Anyway, I no longer suffer with these infections and I rarely have to use even OTC anti-fungals unless I neglect to include probiotics in my diet. It has been life-changing! Read about how probiotics and your gut microbiome impact your immune system and even your mood, it’s fascinating!
@@carolyntalbot947 Wow, thank you for sharing, and I am sorry you had to deal with the horrible yeast as well. I'd love to know the brands if you're allowed to post. I've tried some probiotics in the past, but because what I have also is classified as an immunodeficiency, I tend to become ill. I either get constipation severely or a full-body histamine reaction when even eating regular yogurt, and the probiotics trigger my interstitial cystitis. I have been using the "regular nature food store brands" that are OTC, so maybe a purer one or one for people with histamine disorders would work. When I could take probiotics, I remember I reacted less poorly to eating foods (no runny nose, no facial flushing).
Red light helps with rosacea
Yes sulfur acne cream works
You really need to research more about what you eating!
Inflammation starts if something is wrong in the body, something is missing, microbiome, gut bacteria, everything starts in your stomach, with stress and wrong food you are not doing yourself any favor
*slow blinks* thank you for this knowledge. I thought I just had eczema around/in my ears. Will need to speak to a dermatologist since I do have allergies.
It can be eczema though. I have flaking on my eyebrows and behind my ears. Dermatologist confirmed it was eczema.
Seborrheic dermatitis is a type of eczema tho if you didn't know
• u thought u were in the clear 😭
My hair started falling out because of this condition. I tried every single haircare routine before I was diagnosed, and it made everything worse. We should talk about it so much more
How's it now? Are u on medications now?
I have seborrheic dermatitis on my scalp and eyebrows, I could never stop the flakey dry skin or the musty smell of my hair, once I switched to Ketoconazole shampoo it’s been a life changer, no more itchy dry skin or smelly hair!. I wish more drs were taught about the fungus side of dermatitis, it would save us all so much trauma and embarrassment 😅
Ketoconazole isn't available in Europe :(
@@evilsnowflake7414 it is but you need to go to a pharmacist with prescription from doctor or dermatologist
How did you treat your face?
@@evilsnowflake7414yes it is
@@joshshirk5356 Wash your face with the ketoconazole shampoo. I works wonders!
For my sebhorric dermatitis friends, the Burt’s bees gentle cream cleanser has been my savior. When I go to the derm they tend to give me stuff I’m not comfortable putting on my face but using that cleanser and the skin fix moisturizer I have been able to keep it under control!
I was fighting this for the past few years getting progressively worse around my ears and eyebrows. Tried all sorts of different shampoos, oils, and moisturizers. I changed jobs and started drinking a large Smartwater exclusively every day. That was a big change for me since I had a tendency to go all day with just a small purfied water from the grocery store and never felt hydrated. also started using LaRoche Posay moisturizer when I hardly ever used moisturizer before. Those were the only changes to my routine and after a few weeks noticed it helped significantly, but it finally fully disappeared after using that Nizoral shampoo. My husband and I saw a TikTok about recommending it for dandruff and preventing hairloss from another dermatologist. I've only used it a few times but have had zero issues since! So happy I can wear dark colors again!
I had this for YEARS. It went away when I went keto a couple of decades ago. Now I understand why. Yeast loves sugar.
So trueeee...sugar is evillll
I had it around my nose, it got worse when I moisturized it, then I used anti dandruff shampoo and it cleared up! So guys all you need is a cheap bottle of head n shoulders or other anti dandruff shampoo
Something NOT MOISTURIZING
Apply near them wash off morning and evening or whatever
Works really well
wait how do i use it tho? like a face wash?
head and shoulders will only provide a temporary relief
My dry skin with flakes comes back after i put dandruff shampoo as soon as my skin is dry again what am i doing wrong?
You have to use an antifungal dandruff shampoo like Nizoral. H&S is for temporary relief of symptoms
it’s just your experience, is not that easy
Lol, I thought it was overgrown dead skin cells i keep picking it up 😂 oh my.. I got a fungus at my eyebrows😮
Thank you so much. Saved my life, the struggle around the nose has been real.
Did it work ? I have it around my nose and above my chin I’ve seen people say maybe a change of diet too
Oh wow! I used to have this. I accidentally discovered a solution. I quit using my favorite, homemade potion, and it came back. I discovered the key ingredient was sandalwood. Now I make sure I’m using sandalwood in my face moisturizers, homemade, of course. It’s never come back.
🥺 this explains a lot. Pimple popping vids flooded the Internet a few years ago, that made people paranoid over a tiny blocked pore. We all started picking at our skin, and I bet, doctors now get flooded with people worried about their skin!! I don't have this so far, but it definitely made me think. Thank you!
I love your wit and advice, keep it coming please
OMGOSH, I have wondered for a long time WHY I get this on one ear. I thought it was just dead skin build up. I also get it on my nose!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH I'LL BE BUYING THIS TO USE TODAY!!!
Had this in the nose area as shown. Don’t know how I got rid of it but luckily it went away.
after how long? mine started around a week ago and it's on the sides of my mouth and under my nose- pretty sure it's from the skin care i was using-
@@uraveragehypochondriac64I've now had it for about 2 and a half years

How to treat it?
As far as I know seborrheic dermatitis is a chronic condition that will never fully clear. The fungus mentioned in the video is found on most people's skin, but on people with this condition there's too much of it. Now there are theories that this is because of an autoimmune disease or issues with the skin barrier. So while she mentions that moisturizers will feed the fungus, it may also restore the skin barrier a bit.
I found that pure Vaseline (petroleum jelly) put on after a shower (when your skin is losing most moisture) will maintain the moisture in the skin and prevent flaking, without adding too much for the fungus to eat
It would be really helpful if you could discuss this further for both the face and scalp ♥️
And also itchy eyes--I'm afraid mine is from the fungus...*sigh*
I literally have this in my bathroom and I never thought I could use it on my face! Thank you so much, I'm definitely trying this.
Holy shit. I thought it was “just dandruff” and I’ve been struggling with this for over a year! THANK YOU!
Ketoconazole? It doesn't work for me. Fluconazole shampoo was the best thing they had on the market.
No dispute here, different strokes for different folks
The shampoo works. Suffered with dandruff for over a decade. I tried EVERYTHING. My parents thought it was lice when I was a kid. No more face dryness or peeling. Dandruff is nearly nonexistent now. This is after maybe 4 washes.
I had a question I hope you can help 😅. Is she saying that we need to use the shampoo on our face??
I have dandruffs in my ears.. and it never goes away…
is that it??
I have sebhorric dermatitis, in my case yes I get it in my ears too! I’m not a doctor but that’s what it seems to be
@@morgan2106 but i have it only in my ears nowhere else
@@AD-jq7ow my derm told me that is can be in individual places or multiple, for me I have it on my face mainly, my scalp, and my ears, my sister only has it on her scalp.
do you use hairspray often? sometimes a layer of hairspray can get in the ear and it looks just like flaky skin when it peels of
yes, my ears have been constantly itchy and I was just diagnosed w it. I’d recommend going to see a dermatologist if you can-I was prescribed a mixture of hydrocortisone and anti fungal cream-forgot what it’s called.
Oh my god I’ve had had this for over a year! Thank you 🙌🏼
Y’all just gotta use diluted vinegar it works beautifully!
How long should I use this solution?
I use the shampoo she shows here for my eyebrows and it works very well!
I find that my glycolic acid toner kills it too.
I've read using diluted white vinegar and MCT oil as a moisturizer can work too :)
This is a nice idea if the skin barrier hasn't broken, if it has that will definitely cause it to burn
@@MaryAX It does burn a lil, but as a millennial we like the burn 🤣
@@jemmavonhoff1548 agreed 😂
I love Nizoral it cleared up my dandruff no joke
Alright, well I've had this problem for a long time and I finally have the answer. Thanks Doc.
“picking at it is only gonna worsen it” right as i was picking the flakes on the sides of my nose
Thank you very much for this Doc!
Well, I just learned something 😭 This is so helpful, thank you
I had this problem before, I used Neutrogena T/Gel and it cleared it up mostly in one use, completely with the second use. Just be careful of getting it in your eyes, that stuff really burns the eyes haha
I’ve had every diagnosis under the sun the past 10 years for my flaky skin accept for this one so definitely gone try this 😊
I had something like this on the outside of my ears, and I just used rubbing alcohol.
Burned like fire but it worked.
I got diagnosed with this decades ago, and have religiously used the blue shampoo as bodywash like my dermatologist recommended… it hasn’t ever really helped or went away. 😢
Yeah that video is BS, not all flaking is shrooms, some are autoimmune and require a completely different treatment and are uncurable
then your flaking is not caused by fungus... you have a different issue.
Omg I've had dryness and flaking in my eyebrows, eyelids and a lil around my nostrils 😢 thank you so much. I'll try the over the counter stuff. Thank you!
I had dandruff and flaky skin around my nose for YEARS and I always was told it because my skin was either dry or dirty. I had no idea it wasn’t my fault 😭 two washes with the (ANTIFUNGAL!!) dandruff shampoo and I haven’t had any dandruff since. Literally changed my life, I feel so much more confident
oohh my can you please tell me what eyeshadow you used ? I would appreciate it 😊
I have this and it flares up really bad when the weather starts to cool off. It’s actually really bad on my scalp to the point I’ve went through periods where I’ve had significant hair loss due to this. Selsun blue shampoo works really really well for my scalp and although I know I’m not SUPPOSED to lather my brows with it…I do when it gets really bad. (I do it really quickly and keep my eyes shut as tight as possible the whole time. I’m not recommending ANYONE do this. It’s just what I’ve done.)
Dr. I'm from Indonesia thank you so much for all of your information that really helps me. I've been dealing with seborrheic dermatitis, and i'm using any kind of ketoconazole 1-2% but that's not enough to help my scalp or even my face. Can you help me please myb there's something wrong in the lifestyle or foods that making it worse. Thank you so much ❤
Omg you changed my life. I get this very minorly whenever I moisturise. It makes so much sense now.
ketoconazole only works temporarily, as with all topical treatments. This is an internal condition
So does dietary changes. Which is something a lot of people do, it’s also been studied which is why anecdotal evidence isn’t reliable as well as also misunderstanding a condition. It’s only temporary because if you stop using it or if you have a particularly bad flare, it sometimes doesn’t help. Fixing it internally also have those two variables but leaves an even more unrealistic approach as many cut our entire food groups or the majority, which isn’t sustainable especially for your health. Doing such can put your body in a form of stress and as it’s hormonal it can trigger the worsening of it every flare or extend the length of a bad flare up. Internally managing stress with meditation, exercise etc is good for health overall but there’s no way to completely control how your body/mind will react to any future situations. In said cases it’ll just reintroduce the flare ups (even if you’ve avoided having one for months) thus being a continuous cycle of dietary changes/restrictions, maintaining a habit of meditative practices + exercise routine to manage stress, trialling supplements meant to help and constantly spending money to find the next best thing to incorporate into said cycle. Even if you omit most of the tasks, focusing on one that you deem would work for said internal condition unfortunately can easily cause stress, physically or psychologically. There are bound to be days where you’d be sick or the condition flares when you least expect it, will leave you feeling defeated, stressed worrying if it means your current regime won’t work anymore. There is no cure for seborrheic dermatitis, you can only manage it, essentially putting it into ‘remission’. That could last years and years, while you could also have a small patch/lesion that you can’t see, that isn’t flaking and you haven’t noticed itching, it doesn’t mean you’re cured though just unable to see.
I used to have this behind my ear, it was bad to the point that there was blood behind my ears because of scratching all those flakes, my dermatologist just told me to apply coconut oil on it and wash my ears properly while bathing and it was gone in a week 😭
I just use equate daily dandruff shampoo all over my face and ears, skip the conditioner and lotion and it's been gone for months
My disabled brother has this, but I don’t. Therefore, I never knew how to help him! Thank you so much! My dad and I always thought he needed to scrub and moisturize. Duh!
My friend washes her face with equate dandruff shampoo once a week!❤❤❤ got rid of everything !
More people need to see this, I found out this is what was wrong with my skin for years and one month of ketoconazole from my dermatologist has drastically improved my overall quality of life lol
No way I just used that without knowing it was for what I had and OMG YOU ARE SO RIGHT
I fought this for almost a year! It got bad, and I was trying to deal with it myself. I would wash with Dove soap, then afterwards my skin felt dry so I would "de-bridge" with a wet washcloth to get the skin away. Next I use Gold Bond Ultimate hydrating lotion. Next day it looked the same.... and I'd do the same thing. 😢
Finally, I saw this, and started using ketoconazole shampoo as a face wash. My skin vwould feel dry so I used hydrocortisone cream. After 2 weeks my face is 110% better! 😊 No skin flakes, no redness, no dryness. My skin has never looked this smooth. 😊
Wouldn’t the hydrocortisone cream be enough alone for your face?
@harrietxo2310 The keto kills and controls the yeast, the hydrocortisone reduced inflammation, redness.
I have NEVER seen anyone who pink shadow flatters more in my life...This is soo your color😍😍
ive been using your major fade system for about 2 weeks now and ive already seen a difference. i have hyperpigmentation from electrolysis, and those spots have fade quite a bit. looking forward to a few months from now ^_^ also i love the pumps used, i think i can efficiently use the products.
Shes absolutely right!! I get it around my nose an eyebrows an behind my my ears and have horrible dandruff i cant live without my ketoconzole shampoo!! I also use tea tree serum on my face an that cleared my face
I’ve gotten this in my brows for YEARS and I always thought it was just dry skin bc of hashimoto’s thyroid issues. I’d even take a soft toothbrush and use it with my face cleanser and I couldn’t get rid of it!! Thank you so much for telling me I wasn’t imagining it and how I can fix it. Dr always said it was just dry skin. 💗💗
Can you please make a video on dermatographism? How to deal with it and any other suggestions
Research Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS).Dermatographism is linked to hyperactive immune system reactivity when mast cells in the skin degranulate and release histamine and other inflammatory markers that make us itch with hives, cause redness & swelling, runny nose, itchy eyes etc.
You’ll find heaps of info and you’ll have quite a few light bulb moments. Good luck
Check out MCAS stuff. Histamine is a big trigger in diet. I have found makeups with certain herbs or fragrance cause my histamine to just go bonkers.
@@Sidera17 thanks! But never heard of MCAS, what exactly is it?
@@DeepikaSharma-ug5vv Mast Cell Activation Syndrome. It can happen to someone after exposure to a pathogen or environmental toxins. They are still learning about it, but it causes mast cells to release extra histamine into the body like allergies or dermatographia, hives, etc. People can get really sensitive to triggers in food (histamine) and skin products. A lot of the triggers for rosacea overlap in my personal experience. They still don't know what causes it but allergist/immunologists or functional medicine doctors tend to know more. Usually they treat it with antihistamines.
But how do you use on face? Like a face wash?
I have this and treat it with apple cider vinegar straight with a q tip. Its gone over night and i treatbit about once a week.
Did you put the vinegar on your face?
@@oleskool4908 I most certainly did and still do with flare ups.
Dude I've been trying to find a cause for my symptoms and you perfectly describes it omg
Watching this video i did get this shampoo and it has helped my face clear up and my brows not as irritating like before with lots of dry skin flakes.
Had this issue for 8 years and it was because i was allergic to dairy. Stopped all dairy and i have been clear for almost a year. Don't even have to use any lotion what so ever. Face is soft and smooth.
Really???
I had this from the ages of 9 up until i was 18... i am 20 now and i still have a little bit of dermatitis / eczema on my eyelids but i brought it under control by using a toner with prebiotics and probiotics, hyaluronic acid and pure squalane oil 😄
I thought this was normal and I thought I was just not moisturizing enough. You really helped me thank youuuu
OMG this just helped so much!! I have it so bad on my nose!!
My grandfather had this and knowing that he was growing mold explains so much
This was so helpful! Thank you. I am now ordering the cream. 😊
You're the absolute best ❤
I have the same jewelry doc, rings specifically 😂. Thank you for the info!!!
I'm running to get the ketoconazole right now.
Sooo i used so many different things that make my skin itchy and even worse for 30 years. I just ordered it and hope it will help
Update: it worked im so happy cant stop touching my forhead its smooth like a peach no mor patches ❤ you changed my life all the scales are gone 🤗
I have this. You can get a shampoo from your dermatologist as well as a cream for your face. Also, Dove Dermacare has a shampoo and conditioner that really help as well. I put the rx shampoo on my scalp and let it sit for 10 minutes then I use the Dermacare shampoo on the rest of my hair. Then I condition it with the Dermacare conditioner. It has made such a difference with birth my skin and self confidence!!!
I put diaper rash cream around my nose to get rid of it. It's basically the same thing... Weird smelling but it works.
My flaking is due to psoriatic arthritis, and it causing psoriasis. It's not fungal - confirmed by my dermatology consultant. I tried all the medicated creams and they only helped a little.
Guess what DID help. Estee Lauder Night Repair Serum. Yep. A serum that costs a bloody fortune. I've tried cheaper dupes with the same ingredients, but they just failed miserably.😢
Try carnivore diet, its well known cure for autoimmune and specially psoriasis. Michaela peterson has a very famous ted talk on it few years back
I've always used Pine-slave for mine ever since I was a kid it went away for ten years and came back
Do you all ever wish we had very few sebaceous glands on your face?? No itching and no pores!!
Yes, I have crater size pores and to much sebaceous glands on my face and lots around the nose area. I have been using Vichy which has salicylic acid facial wash which is helping with my over abundance sebum and large pores. I also have that scaly skin which is a fungus and I am getting some results. When the fungus is gone I intend to use the Vichy face wash.
This sounds like a good plan! Maybe some tetracycline antibiotics would help to clear this up, and/or Accutane! Accutane is very good at shrinking pore size AND your oil glands too! @@Loulou47762
Girl...many scientific papers and literature reviews suggest that moisturizing does indeed HELP with seb derm; and no, it's not gonna create a "breeding ground" because your skin isn't a petri dish. These doctors nowadays are so incompetent smh.
I've been with my husband for over 20 years. Awhile back we thought the answer was an antiseptic. But it i only works very short term. I bought him the Nizoral scrub and whoa does that dry or the hair! But now I know the name for the best answer. Crossing my fingers and a Huge 👍 thanks!
Tried Nizoral shampoo and it did not work at all for me. The Selsun Blue Naturals works better for me.
Does it cause hairfall?
no @@PandaSubh
I was waiting for the video to cut lmao it felt impossible that a short could give you the answers y'all wanted to hear
My partner sent me this, and after using that shampoo on my face just once my skin has cleared up and is smooth for the first time in years, and my beard feels softer. Really appreciated this info.
I also followed it up with cetaphil non-oil spf moisturizer and it seems to be a good combo.
Plus, while I’m using this shampoo on my face, I grabbed Selsun Blue for my hair.
Big difference in one night! Fingers crossed it holds up 🤞🏼
Thanks 🙏☮️😊
Yeah i had this all throughout highschool and it never went away, and at some point i just stopped caring and within like... A week, it was all gone and hasnt been back since
Thank you!!!🙏🏾
Since this video is discussing skin fungal infections I feel this is a good place to ask. Any tips for tinea versicolor? I’ve tried creams, pills, dandruff shampoo, everything and it’s starting to get worse on my neck and face 😢
Im not a professional at all, but i add a tiny bit of iodine to my face lotion before putting it on. It is extremely potent- you dont need alot to kill all types of microbials. 1:1,000 of water will disinfect water in 15mins. Theres quite a few studies you can find online about its efficacy
firstly, are you sure it's tinea versicolor? because if various antifungals don't work you might want to get back to the starting line and recheck the diagnosis
Just ordered some, late night and unexpected so I hope it helps!
My mom had this for years till I told her to go see a dermatologist. In a few months get skin cleared up and wasn't flaming anymore
Clotrimazole did it for my ear which was a painful two year infection misdiagnosed as eustachian tube dysfunction, but now I will try ketoconazole as a study I see shows it's the best inhibitor, and the pain did come back after the clotrimazole, which isn't as effective. Thankyou.
Nah fam you don’t need anything fancy just rub some extra strength polysporin on it and it’ll be good! I did it once and NEVER had an issue with it and it has never reoccurred
That Nizoral stuff is awesome. Actually cures dandruff/fungal issues! It's expensive but other products like selsung blue just gives a temporary illusion of working for a bit.
Can I use the same product under different name? Like nizodar?
@@aprilrahee idk of your making a joke or not. XD but the active ingredient is 1% ketoconazole. So pretty much any shampoo with that substance as the active ingredient should pretty much work about the same.

ive had severre seborrheic dermatitis since i was about 12, formed almost a helmet under my hair at the worst point. i knew it was causing my ears to flake but i never made the connection to the flaking in my eyebrows and on my nose. thanks, ill stop overmoisturizing :)
omg ive had this all over my nose for so long, finally an answer!!!
You know what is insane to me. I literally had an itch scalp on 1 side, so I bought this. I have always had dry skin in the fall around my nose and mouth, I used this on my face and literally use it like everyday. My skin is smooth and flake free, and cleared up. This entire time it was a fungus. Blew my mind.
I just went through this. I thought I was having a psoriasis flare but it wasn't responding to my normal treatment. I used a miconazole cream and my face cleared up really quickly. In my case I picked at my eyebrows and I guess I spread it. I have an autoimmune disorder so once I get fungus/yeast it's hard to get rid of. This worked so well
I had no idea there was a solution to this. I never knew there was a cause either lol. Thanks
