We send humans into space and we have doctors who don’t know how to cure this. Weird.
My thoughts exactly.
A fun fact. Space only exists in people's minds 😉
I have it & there is no cure. Just have to know how to control it
David L wow that’s crazy
I'm pretty sure I found the cure.. please read my comment :)
@@truthertv1 How do you know it's not in your mind that space is only in peoples mind?
I went to a dermatologist and it was such a disappointment. She told me "you have this, k bye" no explanation at all. Thank you so much :))
same. i've learned better tips managing it from literally anyone but the dermatologist i went to.
Same
Fucking same
Same. He said i have it because i am a woman. Hormones. So i wonder will it disappear when i am in menopause.
Crazy! This happened to me as well about 10 years ago, I still have dermititis but I've stopped going to the doctor's...
Who else learnt the hard way that hydrocortisone is not de way 😅😭
why not?
Definitely me, it made my face extremely red
Yeah, same. I mean it did stop the flaking. but where the flakes were, really pink rawish skin took over. Which wasnt the greatest 😅
@@TheNiueanOne oh, see for me my skin was already raw and pink way before using hydrocortisone, and it seems to be the only thing to make the itching and flaking stop :/
@@sizzlingguatemalan5877 thats cool! so from my limited knowledge i think my skin had become reliant and gained a higher tolerance for it, so using other creams would result in nasty flare ups and taking more than 2 days off meant return of the flare lol. I do think that maybe/most likely from excessive use, thats where the pink came from... My comment wasnt meant to say hydrocortisone doesn't work, but more like, that cream wasnt the winner its cracked up to be 😅
It seems odd that no one has formulated a face wash to target this problem, as its seemingly fairly common.
literally what I'm looking for right now
@@sheemdee1893 me too...
My doctor prescribed me Ketoconazole shampoo. Almost completely gets rid of it for me if I stay on top of it . Had this problem for years after alot of stress from divorce , loss of my Dad an close friends suicide at the same time. Many times when it would flare up it could kinda painful . My skin really doesn't react well to sunscreen now , before had no problems . Tried many over the counter things like dandruff shampoos an eczema creams didn't help much at all. Another kicker is when I 100% quit drinking it came around full force . Maybe this might help somebody .
@@brianholt8208 it will thank you 😊 seb d is really depressing ....😥
@@brianholt8208 really? not drinking made it worse? I've also been almost not drinking at all, and have also noticed it coming back much more for me.... super weird :( Shampoo does help, but they give me such a small teeny bottle for my thick hair X_X
I hate SD but the comments make me feel you're all my sisters and brothers in one gigantic flaky family. We know exactly how it feels like and we've been there done that often.
Currently have it but had me wheezing with the gigantic flaky family
I used to have this problem. But now its gone completely.
My treatment
1. Selsun shampoo - it contains selenium sulphide. It's the only thing which worked for me.
2. Salicylic acid Facewash.
3 Cetaphil moisturizer for sensitive skin.
Hey, do you have any brand recommendations for facewashes?
@@capriccaa Saslic by cipla.
Uh Winter is approaching _again,_ you know what that means? Itchy, irritated skin - flare ups!
It's been bad 😩 At least the %100 humidity in the summer helps a bit lol
Read my response, it may help you. I suffer too in winter
Update!: I started leaving my 2 in 1 head and shoulders on my hair and face for as long as I could (it starts to get a little "tingly" after it starts to dry up, so I wash it off) and it totally cleared up my dermatitis. Like completely. My right eye in the corner still gets a little "rough" but not flakey and its definitely going away as well, but other than that %99 of it is gone. Its amazing not worrying about my face being a parmesan factory or "oh, I though it was leftover toothpaste" if I forgot to deflake. Seriously, it totally nuked it and I feel like a new man lol Unfortunately I think I will have to keep soaking my face as if I skip a day of H&S on the face, it starts to creep back a tiny tiny bit. I didnt have too bad dandruff before, but it's pretty much gone now.
What I do:
1: Good sized dollop enough for your hair, lather into hair, then use H&S lather/foam and cover areas affected (or whole face for "salted earth" policy)
2: Hang out in shower and occasionally rub effected areas to keep from drying out. Go as long as you can or until "tingly", then wash off.
4: ????
5: Profit.
Surprisingly my skin was fine this winter. Just got weird now (during summer)
@JoJoKiwi please moisturise your face and wear sunscreen
Hi! I just want to share my experience with SD, and the only treatment that has worked on me so far: I've struggled with severe SD on large parts of my face, scalp and chest since I hit puberty. I've found that using a shampoo containing selenium disulfide on all affected areas, cutting my nails frequently to avoid scratching and avoiding fermented beverages such as beer, cider and wine, clears up all rashes within a fortnight. With this treatment I'm 100% free of both rashes and dandruff. Hope this might help others who are struggling.
@Harry Pannu. I enjoy beer from time to time but a lot less than I used to, as it really worsens my condition. Liquor is okay however, but most fermented alcoholic beverages (beer, cider, wine etc.) aggravate my dermatitis.
But if I'm quick to shower with the shampoo I mentioned in my original comment after I've had a couple of beers, it can sometimes counteract the effect.
I agree selenium sulfide is a very effctive tool to combat sd. Same i had at 17 years old for almost 27 years now
@@Ofjelgewhich are tablet u taken orally
@@jumpototo It's a shampoo. Not a pill. Try finding a shampoo containing selenium disulfide. Using a shampoo with ketoconazole might also work for you, and a combination of both could be a possible treatment for severe cases.
She wash her hair by 8x shampoo by brand cipla
I have SD on my scalp, behind my ears, my eye brows, and around my nose. Suffered since 3rd grade and was always conscious about it. I have tried head and shoulders, T Gel and many more. Winter is the worse for me!
I developed it around 18 years old. I got it only on the hair and the only shampoo that works for me is the one with ketoconazole. Or getting a short cut. Also I saw it getting worse when I drank alchool, eating sugar and during stressful periods.
yeah alcohol can make it worse; thanks for sharing!
I have it on my scalp as well and i tried a looot of medicated shampoo / hairloss/sensitive scalp shampoo from french pharmaceutique brand (la roche posay / avene / bioderma ) yet none worked. It was actually worst ! So i use just gentle regular shampoo and i take zinc and biotin / hair supplement
Noemie Chevalier has the zinc helped
the reason alcohol makes it worse is because of the sugar... Sugar is the number one ingredient to stop eating....Cancer patients are told to stop eating sugar... that tells you everything you need to know about sugar.
Ketoconazol will leave you bald at some point, it is harsh on the scalp and it won’t cure it.
I was diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis, and I believe it was caused by exposure to pollution (as well as low immune system / bad sleep). It started a month after I began cycling (I live in a big city) and my worst flare up was after a bonfire. It comes back if I have been in a place with people smoking indoors. I haven’t seen any source or doctor mention air pollution as a trigger but am 99% certain it is the cause of mine.
Heat and sun exposure can be triggers.
I have a similar experience
As far as i know sun is great against sebo d. as its a fungi and they hate too much light.
Bad sleep is happening to me that’s one of my symptoms thanks. I’m thinking stress bad sleep and rice/ bread and hard work. These videos are so bad
Just wanted to leave this here. I found this video 3 years ago and tried your advices. It's been 3 years and my SD never came back the way it was. You literally saved my skin. My solution was the anti dandruff shampoo plus an oil free moisturizer. The products I use are: heads and shoulders 2 in 1 classic (shampoo + conditioner) and the clinique dramatically different moisturizing gel. I use the anti dandruff shampoo during shower, leaving it for a few minutes in the affected areas and the moisturizer in the morning and before bed.And that's it. Those 2 products keep it in control! Thank you so much Dr Dray!
The oil is "free moisturizer"? Or whats the product name? Thanks
@@Ryan_1997 Hey! The moisturizer is "Clinique Dramatically Different moisturizer gel"
@@Phliipme hi Sedesin, could you briefly describe your routine using these? Thank you!!
@@Phillipwnn sure. My routine is pretty simple. I found that overly complicated routines seem to make it worse to my skin. I wake up, rinse my face with water, dry it, and use the clinique moisturizer on the affected areas (around the nose and T zone). Then, I go on with my day. At the end of the afternoon after getting home from work, I take a shower, I use the shampoo H&S on my hair and spread the foam to the affected areas (mainly forehead and arround nose). I then leave it there while I wash the rest of my body (but if you are slow, dont leave the shampoo foam on the skin too long, for me 5 minutes max, or I will get very red patches of irritated skin). Then when I'm done, I rinse everything together. After I shower, I dry my face using soft cloth in a patting motion, so it doesnt irritate the skin, and put on my clinique moisturizer once again in the affected areas. And thats it. I dont do nothing else. Hope it helps 🙂
@@Phliipme thank you - im going to try that
"Running from a bear" too funny! Puts stress in perspective! Thanks for another great video. Hope you're doing well. Hugs ~Dee.
Lol!
I laughed when I heard that too. Whenever I'm running from a bear, my skin condition is barely even noticeable. So running from dangerous predators is a good stop-gap treatment at least.
I am so happy to have found you today! I am 56, was diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis/folliculitis (sensitive, oily,very coarse, wavy, salt and pepper hair) on my scalp over 30+ years ago, and have tried everything. I visited the dermatologist in November and she told me I don't have seborrheic dermatitis anymore but I still have folliculitis and a very sensitive on the oily prone to scabs scalp. She advised me not to use any irritating products. I prefer clean natural products. I have found that a clean clarifying shampoo works best for me, leaves my scalp clean and clear, and keeps my hair cleaner. It allows me to to only shampoo only 2x a week.
In the end , wtf do we have to use?😂
Always relieved when you upload! Thoughts & prayers with our Southerners! Blessings! Jackie in NY state
Thanks Ms Jackie! We are so grateful for your sweet comments of support. TX needs the love right now for sure!
I'm 23 years old, and I have had SD since I was 13. After having tried many things, what has helped me the most the for last 4 years has been using Head & Shoulders for my hair (which it's better to wash everyday, but I wash it every day and a half) and Nivea Express Hydration (or any moisturizer kind of the brand) for my face. I apply the Nivea every single day after I shower, on the affected areas, and even some times during the day (when I start noticing some flaky scales, I immediately put Nivea on them). Nobody who knows me would know I have a skin condition if I didn't thell them. In fact, a lot of them don't seem to believe me! This is to tell how great of this combination is! I hope it works for you (it's true we all have different types of skin, but I'll be glad if this helps you). :)
Is effctiveness still the same because i Noticed that sd forms resistence to medication which works nicely at the begining. Happy that u are able to control it.
When I've got SD on my eyebrow, I'd lather a tiny drop of Selsun shampoo on my eyebrow and leave it for 5 min. So far, it has worked for me.
Lucky you I got it on 50% of my face🤦♂️🤦♂️
Selsun made it worse for me. It just dyed the sebboric skin blue and it fell out more.
I have seborrheic dermatitis on my face, mostly in my nose area & these skincare products have saved my life! Cerave Hydrating Cleanser, Cerave Daily Moisturizer, Cerave Daily AM facial lotion w/ sunscreen and VASELINE EVERY NIGHT at the end of your routine!! If you’re into toners, the Pixi Rose Tonic is so gentle and refreshing. All total game changers.
Around my nose always red/flare up is that the same?
I mean they did make my condition less agressive
No red flare ups like I had before
They are still there but not so much flare like it used to be
It occasionaly at lower rates ahows up but its very tame
Its still peeling a little bit
But yeah it helped a bit
It's around my nose and forehead too. The skin affected feels tight. Is it normal?
Vaseline seems to make mine itch more
I just had a dermatology appointment and found I have this condition. I thought I just had really dry skin and dandruff haha. I have it on my scalp especially around my hairline, forehead, nose, and eyebrows. It’s always been a huge insecurity of mine. Hoping to hopefully treating it well!
Really, is it SD. I have same symptoms like you. I also thought It’s really dry skin. What did they recommend you? Please let me know as well. Thanks
Do you still struggle with this
@@Fast4.6 I was prescribed a Ketoconazole Shampoo that definitely helped, but yes it’s still a big struggle, especially with wanting to dye my hair because the shampoo has sulfates in it
I had red dry patches on the sides of my nose for years to the point I just accepted it as normal..it would itch and bother me..I use head and shoulders but never thought to put it on my face..my face seems so much better now after a week of using it .thank you so much
I use a dilute Apple Cider Vinegar & water solution on my scalp and areas of face where the S D is; resolves the itch and scales. Then I rinse it off after a half hour.
@@matthewbowers7707 I just use warm water and a roughish washcloth...
Just scrub Gently with the washcloth!
@@matthewbowers7707 I do it in the evening, when I am home for the day...and, I use a light moisturizer after I rinse it off.
But, in your eyebrows, maybe not... ;)
I just started using apple cider vinegar on my face & it works fast
Sounds like something you put in a salad
This may make your skin bleed. That's what happened to me.
My scalp cant tolerate over-the-counter anti dandruff shampoos, it sort of dries down the skin and create dry patches on the hairline. Yet it responds better to sensitive/damage hair shampoos.
And i notice the dandruff easily triggered when i get sweaty out on the road, so probably it's sweat and the dusts/polluted air
ilove2929 same for me! Try Nizoral, your body may respond better to ketoconazole like mine. I also do an apple cider vinegar rinse before I wash my hair for like an hour. But I have very severe SD. Good luck!
Loe does the ACV burn?
This happens to me too ... Nizoral dosent help me anymore. I put SudocreM on my face, an the itchiness goes away for few hours but my face is still red.
@@Quiteinfamous ACV made my skin bleed :(
İ agree that dust and pollution makes it worse.
Moisturizer recommendations at 6:10. Sunscreen recommendations at 11:48.
Thank you for this, I have been struggling with this for a few years. Glad to know it is not just me.
I used the clinical strength head and shoulders and it definitely alleviates the itch and flake but after a couple of years I noticed significant hair loss. As soon as I stopped using it the hair loss subsided and hair grew back but being 32 it was terrifying to see the top of my head thinning so badly. I now use the T/Gel which helps control it well but will definitely be trying more of the options you've recommended. Thank you!!
I have SD. Anyone have issues with small blisters in scalp that can hurt and bleed? I heard this is connected to SD?
Dblood85 watch this ruclips.net/p/PLOMT8u4B-RxL_P44RohOYrYGK8zlY07-m
I was officially diagnosed today and I did have those symptoms before. Hope you find some relief!
Use coal tar shampoo. Works pretty fast and gives you relief! T-gel works wonders
@@sanandreasfault what is tgel
Yep.
Thanks Dr Dray! I haven’t had any dermatitis flare ups since using dandruff shampoo on my face. It’s a life saver! Your the best
What shampoo
What shampoo?
I'm a nurse and several of the providers I work with prescribe T-Gel for SD to be used on scalp AND face and I've had several patients who I've seen personally benefit from using this. Also I love your content and your information is so valuable! Thank you 😄 also just purchased the hado labo from your link, excited to try it!!
that is a good one! thanks Ms Carla!
Thank you very much for the tip on using the anti dandruff shampoo on my face, it’s worked brilliantly for me! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
What shampoo is that
Thank you for your suggestions re. Seborreic Dermatitis and the face. I used Selsun Blue on my forehead and the Zinc pyrtihione really helped clear my forehead.
Very interesting topic! I love how informative you are, and simply cannot thank you enough for being kind enough to share so much information with us. I found your channel back around winter, when your subscriber count was under a thousand (If my memory serves me correctly lol). I just want to say congratulations on growing your channel so quickly, you DESERVE IT (high five).
I was struggling with my skin so much, until I came across you, following your helpful advice, my skin is the best it's ever been. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU Dr. Dre!!!
Have a wonderful & safe holiday weekend! =D
Thanks so much Ms Sophia!!
I just wanted to say thank you so much for this. I can't be the only person who was washing my hair less often thinking i was helping the dryness by not overwashing. I started washing more and using selenium sulfide and washing my forehead and eyebrows with it and I have finally managed my SD that has been an issue for 15 years. I could cry. I love you and I appreciate you so much! 💜
Lauren Milosevic is hair growth thicker and coming back? And is it completely gone
Hello Lauren. Where can I get selenium sulfide from?
@@kyokowalker4285 head and shoulders clinical strength!
Words cannot express how thankful I am for your wonderful and so very informative videos. I have seborrheic dermatitis and have suffered with it for years. I was told by a dermatologist to use over the counter hydrocortisone which did not really help much. I occurred to me to use a little dandruff shampoo in the affected areas and that worked better, but it gets in my eyes. Thanks again!
thank you so much for your sweet comments and for sharing your experience here in the comments :)
I was doubt if it would help using head and shoulder shampoo on the areas on my face would. Where the flakes and the redness would usually be. But it truly helps. Prefer head and shoulders than nizoral. Cause nizoral make it really dry and actually sometimes really red! But as I said, it is much better than before. Now usally i have now flakes at all. You have cured the red skin and the bumps!Thank you! ;)
Thanks for sharing! Yeah nizoral can be pretty drying
I have a nice Eucerin shampoo for oily dandruff ! Will go on my nose!
What type of head and shoulders is it? Is it the shampoo or conditioner? Also what type si ce theres a few different head and shoulders products? Thank you
I wonder how related/common this is with other immune disorders. I suffer from, and know so many others who suffer from, rheumatoid arthritis on the severe end of immune disorders, but also have the more "nuisance" level immune issues like severe seasonal allergies, eczema, flaky itchy inflamed scalp, etc. It's like our whole bodies are just constantly experiencing a massive immune system overreaction, and the flaky scalp part is the part I've NEVER been able to get relief from. 😫
nothing keeps my skin moisturized when having a flare up! It always feels tight…
Thank you so much for this video! I'm still trying to combat SD on my face, but I've managed to tackle it on my scalp. I had the worst seborrheic dermatitis on my scalp as a teen and in my twenties. Big gross scaly flakes. The burning/itching was so bad it would keep me up at night and I'd just cry constantly. I felt disgusting. I tried a few prescription shampoos with no results. I'd tried T-Gel and Head & Shoulders, but no dice (though I'd still try anything new that was released). For some reason, when H&S released a version of their anti-dandruff shampoo with almond oil, my scalp finally started clearing up! I've been using it for several years now and the only time my dermatitis comes back is when I forget to bring it with me on trips and use hotel shampoo. IDK what it is about the addition of almond oil that seemed to finally make H&S work for me. I only recently thought to use it on my face when I have flareups on my chin/mouth area. Gets rid of scales/flakes/burning, but unfortunately not the redness!
thanks for watching
Can you link me that stuff I’m losing allot of my hair because of seboorhic dermaitis please I’m really really depressed and feels like shit I spent 4000$ on products to fix my hairloss nothing have done anything to me I took every medication for bald people same I take them on excessive doeses nothing works you could help me just by simply linking me that shampoo
Does the vegamour scalp massager help with seborrheic dermatitis? My hair is falling because of it and online it states once the oily substance/flakes are eliminated my hair will grow back (hair follicles are blocked/prevented from growing new hair). I am in my teens and I use ketoconazole 2% topical shampoo. My hair drys out because of the shampoo, so if anyone has tips to prevent that as well I would highly appreciate them. My scalp also itches from time to time as a result of the condition. If anyone has tips on how to reverse hair loss caused by seborrheic dermatitis in general I would appreciate them.
I wish she was my dermatologist. She is so calming and surely can comforting
Take 2000 mg Vitamin C daily
Drink water
Apply apple cider vinegar to your affected areas as often as you can
NO JOKE ..two weeks its gone!!
Haven't taken vitamin c but have been using the apple cider vinegar as a local toner for about 2 months and have been very pleased! It's better than all the prescription creams I've been given so far.
@@milliemouse6525 I'm glad to hear..but you really should use the vitamin C what your body doesn't usual just urinate out it won't hurt you and it's not expensive
I used to use ACV and thought I saw positive changes, but then it dried out and irritated my skin (I diluted it with 4 parts water, then 8 parts). I read later that it's not recommended!
@@streetofdreams4538 sorry to hear that. I'm still using it and keeping it under control. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be one solution for everyone. I tried probiotic yogurt on the area at the suggestion of someone for whom It worked but it did nothing for me.
@@streetofdreams4538 Yup, ACV made my skin bleed.
I've had it on the front of my scalp, forehead, and my eyebrows for a long time. It's now spread to my chin, below my eyes, and the back of my scalp. It's really hard to not pick, especially when there's giant flakes just waiting to fall off. It always makes it worse though. Sometimes when I get a flare up it's actually painful to shower because it's like raw skin. I really hope a cure can be found for this in the future, it's embarassing as hell and it itches really badly. It's one of the reasons I don't even like going out on warm days anymore, warm weather makes it itch even worse
have you tried CeraVe? face wash and face cream really works. my dermatologist recommended it to me last year. cvs has several different face wash types. I use the hydrating facial cleanser for normal to dry skin. ( moisture balance). the other on is hydrating cream to foam cleanser for normal to dry skin. ( removes makeup). the moisture balance is accepted by national eczema association. the label is on the container. this one is soap free of suds and fragrance free. it has glycerin and it works wonders on my face. you'll see on the container develop with dermatologist. give this one a try and the jar of face cream. I also have it on my eyebrows, down to my chin to the side of my mouth. I think your going to like this CeraVe. I think it's going to work wonders for you. I hope this helps.
@@jenbest4972 I've had pretty good luck with Sebamed but it's quite expensive. My doctor prescribed me this shampoo, Ketoconazole I think. It seems to be helping a lot, I haven't noticed nearly as much flakiness as before
Dr Dray's channel is like a dictionary for any skin problems. Keep it up, doc! Thank you so much 😊 anyway I happened to suffer from dermatitis seborrheic and my dermatologist suggest a desonide lotion. But now I'm also using Selsun Blue and shampoo that contains Zinc Pyrithione and Climbazole. I really hope to get cleared up soon.
Hi Dr Dray, is squalane oil safe to use on face while dealing with seb dermatitis?
this is the only thing that has helped my skin heal from my worst ever flare up. Deep-diving into Reddit has turned me onto MCT C8 oil as well. Can't use most moisterisers due to the burning and stinging, but these two oils are soothing and healing for me.
Mine seems related to sugar. If I have processed sugar, my skin flares up about 24 hours after eating it.
Once when it was extremely bad, I was prescribed a yeast infection pill and it cleared up everything in a couple days.
Did it stay away after the yeast infection pill or did it come back? Thanks!
@@inside91 For me it came back.
Just found your channel this week and have been binge watching! Thanks so much for all the great info. I have lupus which comes with a multitude of skin problems. No dermatologists within 200 miles of here. Also, thanks for the Ibotta link - signed up today and already saved $18.50 at Walmart!
Thanks!! Love ibotta and hope you do too!
Dr. Dray, thank you for these great videos. I have pretty severe SD. The CeraVe moisturizer for dry skin and face wash has been very helpful. Also, I wear a sunscreen everyday and the dandruff shampoo too.
i hope thie video was helpful
@@DrDrayzday , have you heard of Sebclair Cream for this? It’s sold on Amazon. If you have heard of it, do you think it’s good?
Whenever I get flare ups on my face, usually around my nose, eyebrows and upper lip, I use Neutrogena T-Gel Shampoo to wash the affected areas with a clean wash cloth. I rinse it off with warm water, then pat dry and apply Hydrocortisone cream to the affected agreas once a day for a few days. I treat those same areas once a week until it's gone. Knocks it out fast. You will notice a difference the first time you try it.
Cortisone is pretty bad for health on the long term it should not to be used randomley
Sunlight for dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis treatment best I ever get. In summer 5-8 AM , Winter 6-9 AM . 1 hr is sufficient, Front face against sun for 1/2 hr backward face against sun 1/2 hr. Diadvantage -- don't go afterwards 9 AM because Sunlight become worse by UV rays .
I've had seborrheic dematitis for almost two years on the chin and nose, at first I tought it was some allergic reaction, but then found out it was s.d. It never stoped until 7 months ago, were it started to expand on the areas of my mouth and under the chin, that also caused me to have blacks heads and some acne problems. So I started to use Retinoic acid on my cheeks about three months ago and I have to say that my dermatitis has desapeared completely, does anyone know if there are some studies related to this?
From what company is it from, the retinoic acid, what is it called exactly so I can also try it on me. Please I really need this badly its spreading everywhere on my face now.
Did this ever flare up and get worse after using that?
@@Visibleoutdoormedia It’s been almost three years and my s.b is gone, in this period of time I’ve never had an episode again, however i do suggest to go to a dermatologist, even tough the retinoic acid helped a lot, she also prescribed some pills to make the actual fungus stop and dissapear. I never use the retinoic acid while i was taking the pills, i started using it progressively when my s.b was almost gone, because i was afraid it might cause some type of irritation
@@allisonmartinez8664 what pills did you take? Was it diflucan?
Cereva face wash and face cream develop with dermatologist. my dermatologist recommended it to me that i use it every day and it works. this lady says she's a dermatologist but yet she doesn't know about cerave to recommend to people '
Dealing with seborrheic dermatitis was a difficult one. It all started when I was in 6th grade I noticed some flakes falling off my hair and I am so shy to fix my hair in our classrom because All windows were not covered and the flakes. might notice them falling. It affected my social life, I loss my self-confidence and self-steem because of those fllaky scalps lying around me. Everytime they touch my hair, flakes are falling off. Whats more embarrasing is that everytime I go to a barbers shop, they always notice those scaly patches on my scalp.
4 years ago I started using shampoo with Selenium Sulfide in it--Selsun Blue. Walmart has a bargain version of Selsun blue, which i use. I use it when i shower, not only washing my hair, but spreading it all over my face and into my ears. I allow it to sit for a couple minutes before rinsing it off. I use this shampoo 4-5 times a week and the Seborrheic Dermatitis is completely under control and my face is clear. I suffered with this condition since 8th grade and in high school it destroyed my self image. I'm still glad I found this remedy at 52 though.
I developed dandruff on my head during my teens and then in my early 20's, I started getting red rashes on my face that tend to scale up. I have pretty much self diagnosed myself with Seborrheic dermatitis since I've gone to many dermatologists and they say it is just eczema but I can clearly tell the difference. Sadly it's always around my nose, my chin, and flaky skin around my eyebrows near my nose. I have tried almost every topical cream, antibiotic, lotion, etc and nothing helps. Such a frustrating dilemma.
I also noticed this came about a few years after I moved to Arizona. They say the sun helps, but I found that my dermatitis was always worse out in the desert.
I have tried the dandruff shampoo on my face. It's had mixed results. I find that Gold bond lotion tends to help with the dryness, but it depends on how severe an outbreak I get. I have noticed I can get a flare up that lasts for months and then go 6 or more months with clear skin. It's weird how it works. I find a light cleansing using St Ives cucumber scrub can help with the dry skin but then the skin becomes red. That is the worst thing. I've tried using a light amounts of makeup to cover up the redness, and that shows all the dry patches. I'm probably not doing it right since I don't wear makeup. I just figured I wanted to find a way to cover up the horrid redness that leads to embarrassment.
it is tough condition to deal with and i am sorry to hear you are affected; thanks for sharing your tips and story here in the comments and i hope you are having a great night :)
absolutely! It's important to share what works and what doesn't. We can hopefully find some correlation in remedies and find something that truly works.
Just reading your post here and it explains everything i'm going through and it really sucks... we here in the UK don't have gold bond or st ives scrub but i have a solution that actually helps with my dryness it works for me and it might also work for you, they is a cream i purchase on amazon called blackmores its quite oily so it helps control the flakes and softens them so they ain't as noticeable its not a steroid cream but its more of an oily moisturiser but seems to stay quite oily on the skin apposed to your skin soaking it up and drying out straight away. i think its from australia or new zealand. i hope this helps you.
IT IS CAUSED BY FUNGI, KETOCONAZOLE WILL DO THE JOB, I'VE EXPERIENCED THAT BEFORE MY DANDRUFF WENT TO MY GROIN, IN MY TOES, FACE, BACK OF MY EAR EVEN MY EYEBROWS.
You shouldn't use physical scrubs on the face ever but especially for SD it will just cause it to get irritated and spread.
The vanicream really helped my SD it clear up in less than a week. Thanks so much 🙌🏾
so glad to hear!
Bridget Bridges the facewash or the bar?
Thank you for this video. This started happening to me during my depression specifically on my eyebrows, the top bar of my hairline, the area where the nose meets the cheeks that you talked about in the video, my chin, and sometimes my ears. Not using oils on my face and hair helped a lot.
I am so concerned for you and your mom. I do hope you too are well and have suffered much loss. Many hugs!!!
Thank you so so much! We are very lucky to be dry, safe, and not affected by the storm. TX needs all the love right now as many many people's lives have been devastated. Thank you so much for your support :)
Thanks for another great video. I'm addicted to your daily vlogs and Q&As. So fun and interesting! I'd love to see some further discussion of how to treat aging "combination" skin, as I have very dry flaky patches and oiliness at the same time. Seems treating one thing exacerbates the other, and it can be difficult to strike a balance. Thanks!
Thank!
I´m having this dermatitis for almost 15 years. I tried different shampoos, even with antifungal and some containing cortisone. I also have dense scalp, so the scalp doesn´t get much air which make it all worse.
The best way to handle this sickness for me is by using diluted apple vinegar. Here is what I do. Take a medium sized bowl. Fill the bowl 50% with apple vinegar and 50% with water. After that wash your hair so your hair is soaked up with water (because if you dont your hair is soaking the vinegar mix up and your scalp doesnt get much). Use your hand as a spoon and put the vinegar/water mix on your scalp. You can also use cotton balls to put it on your eyebrowns and other parts of your face if you have also red areas there. After you put the whole mix on your skin let it rest for 30 minutes (dont wash your skin)! After that you can wash it off. If I do this for 2-3 days I don´t even have 1 single red area on my face or head. The reason why it reoccurs is the following: stress, to much hair on scalp (scalp doesnt get much air), too much scratching myself. I´m doing this treatment for 13 years and it is really a great help keeping the severity of this sickness to a minimum.
Boltor Taure ur msg looks like a good treatment do you mean apply cider vinegar ?
@@shabnum2010 Correct
I finally got into the dermatologist here and she said this is what is making me itchy and miserable. So glad to find Dr Dray had info on this condition. 😊
Hi Dr. Dray, I'm so thankful for this video because my primary MD would not give me a referral to see a dermatologist for my seborrheic dermatitis. I have flakes falling off my eyebrows, in my ear, on the folds of my face, my nose, and the days when work gets really stressful my forehead looks like a mild case of cradle cap. When the patches come off they are irritated and red. I haven't wore make up in over a year because I couldn't find a good skin care routine. I will definitely try the facial products that you recommended.
milk, sugar and stress are the worst. Shampoo with oil base works for me and I put olive oil in it.
Thank you, Dr.Dray, for this video. You are very appreciated.
I have S.D. flares; if I skip washing my face for a day( in Winter, in the arctic northeast of the US), the next day I have an angry red patch next to my nose, and between my brows, extending up my forehead..... Sigh.
Trying to pamper my skin by leaving it alone just doesn't work!
Sue Ludwig dude I have exactly the same. Ofc when you don’t wash for a day, you get oil on the face but I also realized that it doesn’t happen when you are in the sun all day and don’t take a shower. Weird
@@emilk4743 The SD fungi is killed by UV, that's the reason why you're good in sunlight. You can check the wikipedia article about SD, it mentions that sunlight curbs the fungus.
Alexandra Pryakhina not always. You just need to take care of it. The sun maybe delays it for a bit but it still comes back until you need to treat it again.
@@emilk4743 Yes, I agree with this! Just saying that there is some correlation. Also, I would never try to cure it with sun, neither do I recommend it to anyone. UV is dangerous, and its impact on SD is indeed temporary.
Damn, the video is so accurate. This Doctor here knows her stuff.
Dr Dray does indeed
Clinical Strength Head & Shoulders really helps when I use it to target the areas around my nose and in my beard. I’ve had the worst flare up in years recently and it’s the only thing so far that helps
How long it takes for the head and shoulders to heal your skin??? I am using it everyday for 6 min on the area (mustache area) , but it burns a little bit, and peels a bit too.. is this normal??? I am not as red as before, but still a bit redish..
i have seborrheic dermatitis on my scalp, ears, and face. i find what keeps it at bay is washing with a gentle cleanser (cerave foaming face wash) and using a salicylic acid lotion 3% or benzoyl peroxide 10% when i'm having flares ups on my face (usually from not washing enough) and on the scalp i used to use ketoconazole but that stopped working for me after a while so now i use selenium sulfide shampoo from head and shoulders and it works LIKE A DREAM!!!!!!!! it keeps my dandruff away for a while i don't have to wash my hair as much. maybe like once a week. stuff is amazing. skincare is a very personal journey with lots of trial and error.
I know Dr Dray mentioned stress and sleep, but I just wanted to say my trigger is not sleeping well/enough. On the flip side, meditating regularly seems to help, which of course is probably decreasing stress.
The method I use is: Q-tips, clean water and your hands. Sucks when it's on your nose and surrounding area but yah deal with it like anything else. Best method is do a decent job the night prior cleaning it. The anti dandriff shampoos can be okay... but theyre tough on the face, esp your nose, I would delude them with water if you can.
Good info here though. Thx.
What do you recommend for SD in eyebrows?
Hadalabo oil? Or one shampoo?
Thanks from Spain
Zinc Pyrithione, nothing else helps. This disease is a nightmare.
How often to use ZP shampoo?
@@Angela-Gee When the condition pops up, wash 1-2 times and it is gone for a few weeks. In my experience. I always let the shampoo stay on my skin and hair for a few minutes.
What is the brand name of the shampoo you use please?
I have cured myself naturally after a period of 2 years suffering from it. Zinc was not part of it. I am so thankful! There is a video in my channel if you are interested.
I think I have Seborrheic Dermatitis, for years I thought it was Eczema. I haven't been diagnosed by a doctor yet, because I don't have insurance to pay for it. But I have found that the Fragrance-free dove soap (the gentle kind) works well in combination with some Charcoal soap. Although I have noticed if I walk outside, I immediately get itchy. And my (I assume) Seborrheic Dermatitis flares up. So I don't know what's going on there. I always use a soft rag and scrub gently across my face. I have also noticed (for me at least) that the "philosophy Purity Made Simple One-Step Facial Cleanser" works well with it. I use it when taking a shower before I use regular soap on the skin.
This is the video I needed. Love your channel!!!
What worked for my scalp was "As.I.Am., Dry & Itchy Care Olive & Tea Tree Oil" Hair Care line. It cleared up my scalp and itchiness after one use. Instant relief. I also used it on a friend of mine and he would buy it for himself as well. Didn't have flakies on his shoulders anymore.
I was just told I had this on my scalp. I have had issues with this for years:/
Just saw the comment from Brian about soap. I definitely need to try it! My story began in 2001. I got in the shower and my face/arms were on FIRE! I looked in the mirror afterwards and had spots EVERYWHERE. I was finally diagnosed with SD in 2003 and have been using just about every medicated shampoo known to humans since. I get it EVERYWHERE, but it stays pretty persistent on my abdomen (that showed up in 2012), face, eyebrows, and behind/in my ears. I’m always looking for anything that can help me, so I’m definitely going to try the Z-Bar soap!
Is it effective?
What's been working for me for a few years is after I get out of the shower I apply coconut oil to my face. If I stop using it the flare ups return but as soon as I start using it again the flare ups subside and my skin returns to looking normal. Before I was using honey but that stuff is too sticky and was both a mess to apply, leave on and remove, but boy did it taste good, lol.
Hi Dr Dray, Friday night! I'm watching your videos and I just tried the egg white mask and I loved it , thank you for doing the review, and for educating us . Have a great weekend and say hi to your sweet mom
Thanks! It s a fun one
I was 19 when I first got seborrheic dermatitis, it lasted until I was 24 years old and covered my cheeks, nose and chin. The doctor gave me antibiotics for the infected areas, antifungal creams and after a few months it cleared up with these treatments. It was a stubborn condition to get rid of and never seemed to heal in the years I had it. I don't know why I got the condition to begin with. To keep the skin well I use plain moisturiser and it seems only my nose is effected these days with the dermatitis.
Plz can u suggest the name of medicine 🩸 plz 🙏 😢
Thank you so much! Absolutely needed this!
I’ve used Head & Shoulders on my face, neck and hands when my eczema was flared. It burns a bit but works well.
I struggled with finding a face wash, then I discovered that gentle washes with a milk base products work for me. They have a lot of milk products at Sephora. Also, the Pure Argan Milk Intensive Hydrating Treatment really helps my skin, I wake up with a moisturized face and prepped for makeup.
I think I have SD. I have these patches on my scalp and around my eyes.
Anything that has worked for you? I have a similar condition.
gaurav seth i hear using medicated shampoo helps with the scalp. i havent tried it yet since i still have some of my old stuff left.
for my eye, i exfoliate it and then dont touch it / moisturize it for as long as possible. that seems to help. when i scratch is when it gets bad.
Try biom8 helped me get rid of my dermitis on my eyelids and around my nose
What helps around your eyes??
What helps my seb derm the most is an Rx cleanser with sulfur and sodium sulfacidamide.
that is a good treatment for sure! Thanks for sharing :)
winter seasons are my flare-up season! not really looking forward to it each year. I should move to a more warmer climate in the future..thank you for this informative video. 😁
winter is rough
thank you, better than any website i found online. Good to hear it from a reputable person orally too. I may just be a random person passing by but I appreciate it. I was definitely leaving those areas oily/greasy to fight off the dry, dead skin
My favorite shampoo for my SD: Soapberry or Neutrogena T-Gel
My favorite soap: African black soap
My favorite sunscreen: A large hat
My favorite oil: No oil
My favorite makeup: No makeup
My favorite exercise: Yoga
The second I stop using head and shoulders is when it comes back. I'm fortunate that mine is mild and goes away easily just long as I keep up with the zinc shampoo.
zinc shampoo works well
Hi Friends, I am suffering from SD since 2.5 years. This year in summer, I was prescribed Tacrolimus cream which helped me tremendously. I have a normal skin now but whenever I get flare ups I apply tacrolimus again for couple of days or so and stop it. That stops the itch and skin becomes normal again. I don’t think you need to apply tacrolimus in summer at all. As for moisturizer, use Eucerin cream twice or thrice daily irrespective of your skin condition or the weather.
And BTW. Congratulations on 22k subscribers!!
Thanks so much for your support!
Hey, new subbie here. I’m curious to know if it’s possible to have both SD and rosacea? Thanks for a informative video.
Hey! I have SD on my face/scalp and also have a mild case I'd rosacea on my cheeks/nose area! Totally possible. :)
Yeah, my husband has both.
Hey Dr. Dray, can you tell us about Head and Shoulder's new re-vamping of their packaging and maybe also the formula? Not sure which kind to buy now that the new ones look so fancy
In my 20 year experience, over indulging in bad, unhealthy foods brings it on for me.
Fasting seems to work wonders and obviously eating really healthy whole foods and yes head and shoulders works really fast but I hate using it due to the chemicals inside it
So yes, diet is key.
My SD flares up in winter but recently I’ve experienced a bit of hair loss from I’m assuming itching and scratching at it in my scalp but will my hair grow back?
D Loading•4 I hope she responds to this Im dealing with the exact same thing
This happens to my eyebrows every few months and as long as I start treating it with the cream that I got from the dermatologist it goes away faster and YES my hair always grows back, if I don’t treat it it just takes longer to go away or I will use a little bit of dandruff shampoo to wash the spot every day. I would be totally hairless if my hair didn’t grow back :)) it happens around my forehead and eyebrows a lot
Same problem here, but my hair has thinned out badly. I was told by my derm. that having SD can put your hair into the TE stage. Obviously mine is Chronic TE and I have no idea how to stop the shedding or to get my hair to grow.
Same here. I have been losing far, far, FAR more hair than usual. I see almost a dozen strands of hair on my pillow when I wake up, I lose quite a lot during the shower, and I lose a few whenever I get that itchy, flaky, and burning feeling. All just because of a flare-up.
Same here. I’ve been treating my brows with over the counter anti-fungal cream which helps but the hairs are STILL falling out. Really hope she responds to this. 🤞🏼
I don't understand why dermatologists don't stress enough on diet. Isn't it essentially a yeast overgrowth due to dietary triggers? I've found that sugar, gluten and dairy causes me to flare up like no other. Eliminating these three triggers stops it from coming back unless I reintroduce it back in. I really wish my dermatologist would've told me about this. I'd rather fix my diet than be on a vicious cycle of steroid creams.
no
Isn't it an inflammatory reaction to a proliferation of a form of the yeast malassezia?
eating a high glycemic diet certainly does not help the skin at all, and dermatologists (myself included) strongly enourage a balanced diet limiting sugary processed foods; that being said, the tendency to be afflicted by seborrheic dermatitis is largely governed by genetic influences, which people can't change
Dr Dray so moderate amounts of sugar, dairy and caffeine is okay? Thanks in advance!
because doctors dont give a shit about you and are trained to prescribe medications which fund the pharmaceutical industry. when it comes to this disease stay as far away from a dermatologist as you can.
I've had it all over my face and in my ears since the age of 13 and now at 48 i still haven't found anyhing that really works to get rid of it. I've used cider apple vinigar and treatment creams from my G.P. but nothing has eased it . But will be trying the head and shoulders . Thank you.
Timodine cream will clear it up fast then wash effected area twice a week with a anti dandruff shampoo such a Tgel or selsun to keep it from returning.
I was diagnosed with Seborrheic dermatitis, it covered most of my body. I tracked it down to my hobby of Acrylic Painting. "Golden" brand paints. I cut painting out, and everything cleared up. I use a different brand now (without some of the chemicals within that they use) , and also ventilate in my painting room. So far so good.
Can Castor Oil be used for a first cleaner? This is so helpful.
Hello Dr. Dray! I would greatly appreciate your thoughts on seborrheic keratosis! What causes it, what are the best treatment options, and how to best prevent it? Thank you in advance!!! ☮️🖖🏽
I found the only thing that works for me is putting honey on my face every night and letting it sit for 15 minutes, rinsing it off with warm water, then rinsing my face with sea salt water for a minute or two, and pat dry with a towel. I never need any lotion! This routine has also helped get rid of my blackheads and shrink my pores drastically. This condition seems to mainly caused by oily areas, and lotions and such actually feed the yeast (fungus) called malassezia(I'm surprised she didn't mention this). I would recommend to stay clear of putting anything on that isn't 100% from nature. I've fought this for 20years before discovering only my kitchen products work the best.
Hey thanks for sharing your experience. Do you have it also on the scalp? What helps there?
