What is Dandruff Treatment ?
Dandruff is a common scalp condition that causes flaking of the skin and sometimes mild itching. While it is not contagious or serious, it can be embarrassing and difficult to manage without proper care. Our specialized dandruff treatment targets the root cause to provide long-lasting relief and a healthy scalp.
Don’t let dandruff affect your confidence. Schedule an appointment with our expert dermatologists to get the best dandruff treatment and enjoy a clean, flake-free scalp once again.
What Causes Dandruff?
Dandruff can occur due to several factors, including:
- Dry skin – especially in winter months
- Oily scalp (seborrheic dermatitis) – excess oil and irritation
- Fungal infection (Malassezia yeast overgrowth)
- Skin conditions like psoriasis or eczema
- Sensitivity to hair care products (contact dermatitis)
- Poor scalp hygiene
Symptoms of Dandruff
You may notice:
- White or yellow flakes on scalp, hair, or shoulders
- Itchy scalp
- Greasy patches on the scalp
- Redness or irritation
If these symptoms persist despite using anti-dandruff shampoos, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist for professional treatment.
