Proven Treatments for Stubborn Dandruff

Medicated Shampoos

These shampoos are formulated with powerful active ingredients designed to combat the root cause of dandruff. They are effective at controlling the fungal overgrowth and irritation that lead to flaking, providing you with long-term relief.

Topical Steroid Solutions

For severe cases with intense itching and redness, a topical steroid can be used. This treatment works to quickly calm inflammation and offer fast relief from uncomfortable and painful flare-ups.

Salicylic Acid Treatments

A key ingredient in many scalp treatments, salicylic acid works by gently exfoliating the scalp. It helps to break down and lift away stubborn flakes and scales, preparing your scalp to better absorb other treatments and improving overall health.

Combination Therapy

For persistent or complex cases, a multi-pronged approach is often the most effective solution. This involves combining different treatments, such as alternating shampoos with different ingredients or using a medicated shampoo alongside a topical solution.

Effective Solutions for a Flake-Free Scalp

Initial Consultation

We begin with a thorough evaluation of your scalp and flaking patterns. You’ll have a one-on-one discussion about your concerns, medical history, and goals with our scalp care specialist. If the cause of your dandruff is unclear, we may take a closer look to determine the specific type of condition. Together, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs for a healthier, flake-free scalp.
