Dandruff Treatment

Dandruff is a common scalp condition marked by flaking of the skin on the scalp. While it can be embarrassing and sometimes difficult to treat, dandruff is not harmful. It can be caused by dry skin, sensitivity to hair products, or a yeast-like fungus called malassezia. It can also worsen in cold, dry seasons or due to stress.

What we treat

Dandruff can often be controlled with prescription shampoos containing certain types of active ingredients. In addition, it’s helpful to manage stress and to eat a balanced diet to keep dandruff in check.
