It's an overreaction from the immune system towards the waste of broken down sebum by the Malassezia living on our skin. You have to figure out why your immune system overreacts.
      Nr. 1 is food intolerances, 2. is other food and drinks causing digestive inflammation, 3. is stress: consistent sleep(!), exercising, walks, sunlight, meditation etc.. If you figure out these three factors you will se major improvements.

    My dermatologist has me rotate Head and Shoulders, Selson Blue, and Nizoral and that seems to work fine. This is for scalp. Also have issue around nostrils so I apply on that area too. Basically I treat for 5-10 min every 3-5 days. Using different shampoo each time. Nizoral does seem to be the best of the three so thats cool to see in this vid. And yes this dermatitis does flare in the winter. I think getting a few min of sun on the scalp helps too. For me the issue has settled down over last few years (am now doing a Mediterranean diet just for health but who knows). I still rotate the 3 shampoos but do shorter treatment times. Great vid and explanation. Thanks.

    Zinc shampoos never worked for me. I believe most of my issues came from build up on my scalp and skin - as well as perhaps a breakdown of my skin barrier. Here’s what I use now: For my face I use Cerave Hydrating cleanser followed by Paula’s choice 2% bha exfoliant or the ordinary azeliac acid suspension 10%, and a cerave spf moisturizer lotion. (All of these you just use a little to stretch your bottles but use plenty of spf as these acids can make you susceptible to sun). For my head I use a tea tree oil shampoo and a silicone brush to massage the scalp and beard.
    Although dry skin still happens with low humidity environments - it’s much better than before.

    I have the same condition and I use the exact same products you advised, which the dermatologist gave me. I also only use one cream to moisturize my skin, it's Uriage D.S emulsion. In France there are several products that are safe to use and they're all called D.S something (for dermite séborrhéique). Several brands like Uriage, Bioderma or Vichy sell those. Since I have this condition I've only been using 3 products on my face, no hot water (nzither on my face nor on my scalp) and it's way better than what it used to be, eventhough I can still have after the gym or when it too hot or humid outside.

    I also have seborrheic dermatitis, and these are information shared by my doctor. This is not a disease, but a skin condition. It cannot be cured, but maintained under control. It gets triggered by genome, more often to men than women. It's more progressive as reaction to stress. For treatment, same medication will help some people, while not others. So you will need to change it, until you find what suits you. Fungus that Alexander is mentioning is responsible for skin condition, but root cause is genome and stress that helps fungus to "do it's work". Other external factors can help progression of seborrheic dermatitis (sun, dry weather, swimming pool, etc.) Treatment requires a lot of patience and persistence. It will not be "cured" with one day treatment, you have to keep on using one type of products until you see the change. If no progress after several weeks, you need to try some other products. And once you resolve the issue, you must continue with skin care products to keep it under control. There is a lot of cosmetic products specially developed for treatment, and lot of them have "DS" mark in their name. Try to find products that have more natural ingredients, less or not at all sulfates, that don't make your skin more dry, and do your best to keep stress level as low as possible. Be more active, in the nature, outside, with people you love and care for.

    I had sebderm and the doctor gave me something called TERBISIL.
    The side effects were brutal for me: depression, anxiety, diarrhea, joint pains. It did cure the sebderm though, but it came back after I stopped taking it.
    So I had a really bad experience with this product and wanted to share.
    I also use nizoral now and it is pretty effective, going to try out the other skin care product mentioned in the video.

    I had almost identical face rash. Ketoconazole worked for a while, maybe a year or so, but then it stopped working for me. Since then I have changed my diet to carnivore which mitigated it drastically and now I only use coconut oil on my face. At first I had to use coconut oil 3 times a day, now it’s just once every other day.

    wow your skin looks great and so even. the ketoconazole shampoo worked for me for a couple months but isn't as effective anymore. lately the only thing that's been helping is the Living Proof Scalp Care Dry Scalp Treatment. I add it all over my scalp after I wash my hair (about twice a week) and its been amazing at keeping the SD at bay. I also like to put it on certain areas on my face/body that flare up mostly around my nostrils. Thanks for the tips!

      Ugh. I put up with red itchy SB flare ups for years around my nostril and eyelid creases. Finally went to a dermatologist and got the best remedy ever. It was Hrydocortisone Ointment 1%. Clears it up in practically 48 hours and kills the itching instantly. I'll put in on from time to time before bedtime as soon as I think I'm feeling itchy and it prevents a flare up from happening. Give it a try sometime, it's right there on the shelf at CVS and Walgreens. Be sure to get the ointment version and not the cream.

    I used to have seborrhea on my face (nose to cheeks area and lower forehead) since my mid teen years. I suspect that it was triggered by a very stressful family event when I was 14.
    I was given a few creams and corticosteroids but it only became worse. My condition started getting much, MUCH worse around the age of 24 and I remembered there were even days when I literally couldn't leave the house. It was extremely depressing and I completely lost hope about life. The most interesting thing was that there were moments when I felt like the burning and sort of a "darkness" is coming up my body and in few hours it hit my face and the condition just became extremely bad. Seborrhea was always there but these "attacks" were very scary. I always compare it to as if you have all the energy and drive to do things, accomplish your daily task, etc. but it felt as if there was an invisible hand that is holding you on the ground and not releasing you.
    Around that time, I went to India (Tamil Nadu) and stayed at yoga ashram for 2 full months. We ate twice a day, only oragnic local food, had a lof of movement, did cca 50 mins of meditation a day. My seborrhea completely vanished and my skin never looked better.
    However, after returning back home to Europe, I noticed it is slowly coming back and even though it was not as severe as before, it was clear to me that either: 1) I did something in India that I normally don't do at home, or 2) I was not doing something that I normally do back home. I came to conclusion that it must be something about the food and since I heard about the digestion/skin connection, I decided to visit a gastroenterologist. They did the endoscopy, took a sample, and after two weeks sent me the result that confirmed that I have celiac disease.
    I had to completely change my eating habits but most importanty - after a few days without gluten, my condition became much better and since then I have NEVER experienced seborrhea in any form again. I used no cosmetics, I did not even wash my face, nothing of that sort. It was just about omitting gluten in all of its forms.
    This is my personal story and experience and other people might get in because of different reasons but I can only recommend to get your gut checked.
    Good luck and a lot of strength to everyone who is still dealing with seborrhea.

    Grapefruit Seed Extract LINDERS AND allows you into direct sunlight Without Any pigment-damage. I just intuitively tried it when I had something similar (perhaps worse) that was making even just the reflections of sunlight burn while sitting in the shade. And it was amazing, as well for the discomfort of the skin itself that I constantly had even while indoors without any sun at all. It stings for half a minute or so, and then it takes the soreness away all freakin day.

    I've had these problems for literally decades and the times I asked doctors they just kind of shrugged and said "use dandruff shampoo," which did shit-all. Finally I tried nizoral 2% and it was the first thing that ever made the condition go away, but I have to use it almost constantly. I have since discovered a much cheaper shampoo with the same active ingredient (it's called Sebizole) which also works really well. On top of that, I've discovered that nizoral also make a cream that you can apply directly to your skin with the same medicine in it, which I have started applying on my face as soon as I notice my skin becoming rougher of redder in the places I get the breakouts. It helps a lot.
