Agreed, its anxiety for me. If I'm having a good string of days then my skin will clear up, but if I keep having reoccuring anxiety then my sebder flares up incredibly bad.
@@Alishba_ヅ Stress is what's triggering it the most for you and manny others, because stress affects the immune system. 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.
Cut stress and sugar. Antifungal creams for the face with cerave daily moist 30 SpF. Head&Shoulders clinical selenium sulfide 1% shampoo, ketoconazole/zinc didn't work for me in the long run. The game changer was black seed oil, take it daily - totally destroyed that nasty fungi.
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.
@jimmys7985 its bad based on ingredients but people are ignorant about or while at the same time dandruff is so horrible you really get to put anything on younto solve it 😢
I think some of the stuff around the nose could be due to an Omega 3/6 imbalance and could probably be cured with eating more fish or taking fish oil. Worked for me.
for people who cant afford or dont trust creams - try cutting all sugars and all grains out of your diet and see if your skin clears up after a month or two. basically a meat & vegetable diet.
@@damnwhyisitsohardIt’s not just grain or wheat, it’s basically cut out carbs, except natural whole food vegetables. Check out either clean ketogenic or carnivore diet. When I went clean keto my skin and scalp got much better, when I went carnivore for a month, it completely clear up without any special cleanser or medicated products. Just sharing what I experienced, everyone’s different but strongly suggest to check out the diet and see if it fits your need.
Wikipedia says it’s due to potential water toxicity, which is also low, however in typical eu fashion, since no one made the paperwork to have it legal continuously, it was banned by default
“Zinc pyrithione can in the laboratory setting trigger a variety of responses, such as DNA damage in skin cells.” -Wikipedia. Also, research has shown that monkeys topically treated with ZP have been shown to pass it in their urine. So clearly it is cytotoxic (kills cells) and can cause DNA damage (cancer) and be absorbed by the body. I would avoid it. Wouldn’t be surprised if it contributed to baldness.
Appreciate the input ! I’ve been dealing with this for almost 20 years without success. The topical creams I was given by my old dermatologist burned my skin so badly I never wanted to go back and try again.
My seborrhoeic dermatitis has gone 90% away after I started supplementing vitamin D. This was entirely unexpected. It is a very very cheap supplement with many benefits, so it's at least worth a try!
I use a pill that has a vitamin D3 and K2 combo. I heard it is an inflammation from immune system response as I am now closing in on 51 y/o. It kicked-up out of nowhere as a slight rash on the forehead in early 2018 and worsened since spreading to both cheeks. I also use a a topical steroid. Cortizone-10. After treating 2 dufferent workout injuries, I had to orally take Prednisone. It goes away completely after 5 days, is good for about a week but then come back.
@@wiilkahargeysajecel8748 less than a week! Beware: 2000 UI was not enough for me, I need to take 4000, at least in the winter. This summer I will try to lower the dose. I started taking it because I was mildly deficient, so for the first two weeks or so I took trile dose, then went down to 2000, that is the usual maintenance dose, and the dermatitis quickly came back. Upped to 4000, and it went away again. Good luck!
My brother and I BOTH have a problem that sounds ALOT like what you’re saying. DEFINITELY gonna try these products out. CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH MY FRIEND. This skin condition has been driving the both of us CRAZY for years. If this helps YOU ARE AN ANGEL and you have NO IDEA what your video would have done to help us out. Again THANK YOU.
No don’t try these products. It will just treat the symptom and not heal the root cause. Its like having headaches and taking aspirin. Fix the damn root with DIET.
@@GameTrends-w4w I have it and I've also been using similar products for a couple years now and really helps, just don't get lazy with it and it wont come back as often. Unfortunately it's a lifelong condition because it's basically an allergy. Figuring these things out really make a difference.
Ceramides play a significant role in managing Malassezia-related skin conditions. They possess antifungal properties, and their deficiency has been linked to increased Malassezia growth, particularly in atopic dermatitis and seborrheic dermatitis.
The CeraVe Renewing SA Cleanser is great for it too, use it each time you shower and moisturise after with either CeraVe Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Serum or CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion. Curlsmith Post Wash Calming Conditioner for your scalp. These worked great for me + having a healthier diet makes a huge difference!
Thank you so much for sharing this in-depth experience that you've had! I found that for me, Salicylic Acid helped to prevent the Malassezia from having effects on the skin/scalp. As Salicylic Acid is naturally antiinflammatory, the redness and irritation caused from Seborrheic Dermatitis can be targeted simultaneously. I'm sure this video will go on to support many other people with this skin condition, so thanks again for all of your efforts towards this video!
Bless you!! You have no idea how many times I have discussed my skin problems with doctors in Canada, also dermatologists. (the dermatologists did help with accutane) I got more information from you in this video on the seb derm!! Thank you for being a good, kind guy!!
@@adonaielohim4147 A GP prescribed and I am not sure if hair loss I had was typical or unusual. Some grew back, some did not. But my skin was perfect while I was on it-loved it. Good results lasted for 5 yrs or so and had to go back on. It helped a lot and I ended up on it about 6 or 7 x.
So, as a skeptical kinda person, I have to say thank you for your testimony. I am using these products, and after three weeks, I am seeing impressive results!! My itching head has stopped. My red rash on my face is better, and the flaky skin on my face is clearly getting better. Thank buddy, keep being a good person!!!
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.
Raw honey daily on affected area aslong as you can and wash it off with water only. Don’t use soap daily on face. Once it disappeare you can put honey 2-3 time a week.
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.
Sulfur soap... I struggled with this for 20 years (and used the ketoconazole creams and shampoos to keep my flair ups under control). But the one thing that solved the problem for me was using sulfur soap on a regular basis. I think it's wise to cut down on processed sugar as well, but sulfur soap, for me, was it. I've since stopped buying the ketoconazole creams and shampoos. Thanks!
, I'm not the original commenter, but I started using sulfur soap for my face and hair about a month ago, and, yes, it's gotten rid of my dandruff, scabs, and welts in my hair as well.
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.
This was what I was hoping the video was about. Your external is a reflection of your internal. Thank you for sharing. I've been inspired to take a look at my health and address the core issue.

I am 55 and got this the first time this winter. Thanks for the video. I'm starting off with fasting. Then no carbs no sugar in my diet. I am outside in the summer... I think UV light might be helpful. Great video. Ty
Try giving up dairy. Cheese is the trigger for me. Small amounts of milk occasionally don’t seem to cause it but cheese more than once in a week definitely flares it up. I got it in my fifties too. It took a couple of years to figure out was doing it.
My evidence is anecdotal, but I found that after consuming Flax oil, which is mostly omega 3, for a few weeks, my skin flare-ups decreased substantially. It has a sort of nutty taste, so I mix it with peanut butter and then do whatever I'd usually do with peanut butter.
I’ve also noticed an improvement since taking omega 3 fatty acids (I’ve opted for algae oil, as it’s a superior source). My theory is that it supports the skin barrier and that impaired skin barriers are an underlying cause of many skin conditions 🤷🏼♀️
In a 2001 study, people with seborrheic dermatitis of the face or scalp applied a mixture of 90% raw honey and 10% warm water to affected areas. The mixture was left on for three hours before rinsing it off with warm water. This was done every other day for four weeks. All the patients responded markedly with application of honey. Itching was relieved and scaling was disappeared within one week. Skin lesions were healed and disappeared completely within 2 weeks. In addition, patients showed subjective improvement in hair loss. None of the patients (15 patients) treated with honey application once weekly for six months showed relapse while the 12/15 patients who had no treatment with honey experienced a relapse of the lesions 2-4 months after stopping treatment.
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.
Have you tried Selenium Sulfide? There's a Head & Shoulders Clinical Strength Dandruff Shampoo with Selenium Sulfide instead of Zinc. It is specifically for Seborrheic Dermatitis
19 years i have been suffering from this, ill give it a go thanks Your explanation and analysis sounds spot on as opposed to the doctors who just thrown corticosteroids at it i gave up with the dermo and gp years ago and just learned to accept it
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.
Check your gut microbiome, look for Functional Medicine doctors that make you thorough tests. As above so below: if you have fungus on your skin you likely have fungus in your microbiome.
@@jmc8076 Nope. If you don't have time to lose, you need to test. Not only poop, blood, breath, urine, hair. Define "expensive" in a system where public health doesn't exists or doesn't do what it should. Public health should offer those tests and diets but they won't do it, they'd rather let people suffer.
Ketoconazole completely cleared my skin up after one wash…. Been rash free for 4months meow…. Stuff is golden 🤙🏼been dealing with this issue for over 10yrs. Highly recommend
So, for years I was using corticosteroid creams on my face to treat the plaques, but at some point, I realized it wasn’t doing me any good long-term. I decided to try more natural stuff, and now I’m managing my flare-ups pretty easily with simple products. What works for me: Be careful with baking soda because it’s alkaline and can mess up your skin’s pH if you overdo it. I dissolve a teaspoon in warm water, dab it on the plaques with a cotton swab, leave it for 10-15 minutes, then rinse off and apply coconut oil. ⚠️ Important: Don’t use it every day! Better to use it every 48-72 hours depending on how bad your flare-ups are, and make sure you see how your skin reacts the first day before using it often. Coconut oil is super moisturizing and anti-inflammatory. If you’ve got oily skin, you could try olive oil instead. For my scalp, I use pharmacy shampoos made specifically for psoriasis and dermatitis. I also changed my diet and started taking marine lecithin supplements to help prevent flare-ups. ⚠️ Very important: What works for me might not work for everyone. You’re responsible for your own health, so definitely check with a professional before trying anything new, especially if your skin is sensitive. I don’t want anyone having a bad reaction to something just because it worked for me. Also, I know that in America, meds and doctors can get expensive, so I wanted to share this in case it helps anyone out there. Sorry if there are any spelling mistakes, and sending greetings from France!
Video is legit. Do the p-zinc (head and shoulders). Let that sit on your face for about 10 min. Try not to drink alcohol and try not to consume simple carbs like sugar (candy). If you do those few things, the seb. Derm will lesson over time. This dude knows what he is talking about.
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 started to develop this condition in the past few months. I have psoriasis, so I sadly thought the redness on my face is related to that. always during and after gym, those red patches used to "come out". now I have multiple red patches on my face, which I can only treat with 2% Ketoconazole Shampoo. do you think that would be enough? Zinc Pyrithione has been banned by the EU, so I don't know what else to use to stop things getting worse.
@@David-qr5sg le medecin m'a prescrit du ketoconazole en shampoing, et de la ciclopiroxolamine et du metronidazole en crème. Le traitement est long, il faut le poursuivre plusieurs mois mais ca fait effet. Par contre il faut eviter tour ce qui est parfum (à base d'alcool) et eau chaude.
my dermatologists always said this thing basically never clears up and the best I could do is use the creams they gave me when it flares up. I've been through the ringer because of seb derm, and this video is actually very helpful, thank you for this!
Hi! I had the same problem as you did but I used a cheaper method. Protex soap. I washed my head and face any other day and for me worked perfectly. Great video though.
I use Dercos Anti-Dandruff Shampoo For Normal To Oily Hair, which was more effective for me with less side effects than Ketoconazole. The sensitive version seems to lack some of the active ingredients of the normal-oily variant, so I wouldn't recommend that one unless you find it works for you. Thanks for the ZnP tip, I'll try that one.
I suffer from Seborrheic Dermatitis since I am 10 years old. Actually I am 48 years old. Since half a year I avoid alcohol, caffeine, sugar and stress. Moreover I use Ketoconazol shampoo and vitamin D and K2. And what have I to say? My Seborrheic Dermatitis has disappeared for 99% 👍🏻🙂
Much simpler remedies are gelatin of animal origin in lukewarm water and then applied to a clean scalp. Then rinsed with warm water. For the face I used ghee for months instead of moisturiser. And after several months, I use a moisteriser, I stopped using ghee, because I do not need it anymore. Doctors thought I had rosacea and wondered how I cured it. But I don't stop applying the gelatin to the scalp every time I wash my hair. It stops the malassezia from growing.
@@markrem6573 I make my own ghee from unsalted butter. Gelatin I buy from the shops, any make will do, as far as it is from animal origin. I use Dr. Oetker's. Try these remedies, it is a completely natural, safe and cheap way to have healthy skin and scalp.👍
@@markrem6573 I make my own ghee from unsalted butter and gelatin I buy from the shops. Any make will do as long as it is from animal origin. I use Dr Oetker's. The same that I use in cakes. 😊👍
One key thing that drastically helped clear up my skin 98% head and face. Is I stopped smoking and drinking alcohol, and started taking vitamin d supplements, combined with the shampoo he mentioned. I just need to stop eating so many carbs and fats to cut the 2% out
Great video. When my son was an infant, he was diagnosed with Asthma as well as having odd spots of red angry dermatitis on his back and upper arms. We were lucky enough to find a doctor who specialised in infant dermatitis, he told us to use Selsun Gold but in very small amount, diluted in warm water, as a wash on the areas. We only used it only a few times, and the skin problem resolved and didn’t return.

Tried all this a loooong time ago in my 20s. After a while it stops being effective. Also, you don't actually need it. Face: I use native coconut oil (the one you can eat) as after-shave for the last 12 years. Not a signle flake on my face since... Dandruff: Just go to sauna, and rub your scalp with your finger tips while there. Initialy 3 times a week. When it clears up, just do it once or twice a month to maintain.
Thank You for this I look forward to trying these. I've struggled with this for years without the benefit of having healthcare. It took me years to just figure out what it was. Then there wasn't much information to be found out there. My condition is pretty severe with patchting my head (bald) and my face (beard) which I grew out to hide the flare-ups, but clearly made flaking more pronounced. Way back when, I used different types of Anti-dandruff on my face and head. Which held the flakes at bay for a day or so, but would greatly agitate my my exposed skin so bad that the patches would practically glow bright red. Sympathy for Rudolph Vibes. There are a multitude of worse things to have, but this can be highly embarrassing and shameful at its worst. So I would like to share what little information I picked up along the way that's worked for me up until now, for others of us out who share in this. I found that by using a Probiotic Soap that was mild enough for everyday use (sometimes twice a day in the beginning and during certain flareups) kept my severe condition highly manageable. I buy mine through Amazon because its not easy to find in stores. I'm not proposing that this works better than what is video offers as I intend on looing into these products as well. I just wanted to put some additional knowldge out there to help our community. I hope this helps anyone who finds this. P.S. Soap use; Lather and work into your skin like makeup removal. Leave for a few, letting it do its thing, then rinse.
And remember to always wear a good sunscreen. Raw flare up plus sun exposure can lead to a basal cell carcinoma. I've had it twice. Not skin cancer - that requires chemo.
@@KA-rr6lu that is the pitfall of carnivore and keto. People think the results show after like a week.. to a maximum of a month.. but it takes a huge amount of time for your body to adapt fully after having eaten everything for your whole life, your body only starts to really get used to it after a minimum of a month..
People always say that in the summer the condition gets less severe but I found it to be the opposite, the more I stay in the sun the worse the condition gets, probably because of the sweat. The only thing that gives me relief is ialuronic acid. I use a Malva based shampoo and I have basically no dandruff anymore but the scalp still itches. My problem is that I have a very oily skin so I have to shower and shampoo every single day. I could try to stop using soap as often to slowly reduce my skin's production but I have become dependant on them to remove the oil from my skin to lessen then dermatitis so I'm stuck.
I suffer from SD. It gets worse from April to September. Scalp: I have no dandruff anymore, but the scalp still itches and/or tingles all year long. On the face: non stop burning sensation from April to September. I sweat a lot. Is your face affected? Do you use a sun cream?
@@anniemoisan4508 I get desquamation/inflammation at the sides of the nose and near the eyebrows, mostly. Minor desquamation also on the right side above the lips and the chin, on the forehead and on the chest, between the pectorals. I only use sunscreen if I'm going outside in direct sunlight for a prolonged period of time, like hiking or the beach.
Thanks for this video. I have had this condition ever since high school and i didn't know what it was or how to fix it until today. I'm going to try these products out hopefully its a goldmine. ♥
Apple cider vinegar 1/2 water works great for me. Mix ACV and water in a bottle and spray it on scalp and face and let it dry itself. Do it once every other day. DONT let it get into your eyes tho. It works great for me. 😊
I always had this but I never knew until this year, when I went to my doctor he thought it was a yeast infection and it only now 4 years later that I’ve found solutions to treat it. Started using a Salicylic acid, Mandelic Acid, & PHA exfoliating cleanser daily while I shower. I just leave it on for a few seconds and rinse. My last flare up was before I started using the cleanser and I had literal scales basically growing in between my eyes and nose. It was so bad I ripped them off and left my face red for a month. Trust me the cleanser works a lot better I also alternate between selsun and head & shoulders for my severe dandruff (when I was a kid I got a buzzcut and my mom thought I was bald from how much dandruff I had. U literally couldn’t see my hair). I’ve also found I get more flare up’s when I pick at my dandruff so just brush the spare flakes and don’t touch your scalp.
Man, this is great and heartbreaking at the same time. It’s heartbreaking because I thought I could just eat better and it would be gone. It’s all over my eyebrows and eyelids…
Hey guys so ive been suffering from dandruff on the scalp and face(around nose, between eyebrows, around mouth) i recently tried applying extra virgin cold expressed coconut oil on my face and scalp(i massage my scalp with as much coconut Oil as it needs to get the whole top head look wet with coconut oil), then i go to the shower room and using a very clean body wash(i use native body wash) i clean my body first and at the end i put soap on my scalp, i dont do deep massage on my scalp i just scrub my hair to get rid of the excess oil, then i rinse, takes like 10 seconds just so it doesnt look oily, you dont want to get rid of the coconut oil on your scalp…then i just rub my face with water(DO NOT USE SOAP) just to get rid of the excess oil, it will feel oily but once you dry your face with a towel it will be fine, dude, i struggled for so long and all this time could of have used coconut oil, cheap and easy, when i wake up i put on coconut oil on my dace and rinse with water and dry it…just beause i used to wake up with dry looking skin and overgrown skin flakes around my mouth still, but i didnt have that this morning. No more itchy scalp(it used to wake me up) , you gotta do this every night, massage your scalp, its gonna be your every night ritual, give it 10 mins make sure you got coconut oil all over your scalp, its worth it, i tried changing my diet,(i avoid carbs and sugars and processed foods and i still had dandruff) i tried so many things but this one has work wonders, try it and put on your comments here maybe you can also help someone in need as i was in need but no one told me this, was a blessing to find out, and be patient, this gotta be full in, it works, for me at least
i use a prescription only product called diprosalic on my scalp as well as the Nizirol.. it was a game changer... i found that if i stayed on top of treating my scalp, then my face is never as bad
I slowly and cut eating bread (that uses yeast) and avoid drinking beer (also has yeast) reduce my seborrheic. It come and goes but reducing these two help me. Also removing your facial hair helps stop growing dermatitis on face and shortening your haircut also helps.
I am having one heck of a time trying to figure out what I have and how to fix it. Thank you for the video, I am going to give this a shot. Wish me luck, to everyone else dealing with this, I it goes away
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.
Yes, it works, but it has long-term side effects. It especially stresses your liver. So I take it only when there is an outbrake again. Normally, I rinse with apple cider Vinegar after washing my hair,that is enough to keep it under control.
External treatments are just temporary fixes. Unless you discover the exact core underlying issue it will never be perma cured. Leaky gut and food intolerances are number 1 issues for people suffering like me. Removing dairy and gluten foods from my diet, stopped my flare-ups permanently.
I used these type of products but after a while their effectiveness waned. I discovered that vinegar applied to the affected areas before washing was much more effective over time - and no carcinogenic chemicals!
I've alternated between using malt, distilled and cider apple vinegar and haven't had any problems with burning. Distilled (white) vinegar seems to be the most effective.
Not sure where everyone else is at with this but I cut out beer especially hoppy ones like IPA. I loved em but it wasn't worth it besides all the other downsides to drinking. The condition cleared up and only comes back when I drink.
I never knew the conditions i had until i saw your video. I have the exact same condition as you. What had helped me clear the flare ups on my face was brown rice vinegar. If i apply the vinegar once a day, it will clear in 2 days. I tried ACV, but it surprisingly didn't work. Brown rice vinegar smells very strongly, so now i know what alternatives i have.
Suffering for over 20 years. Flare-ups in the winter usually. Tried most things. Recently started slugging. Good facewash or exfoliative at night and apply petroleum jelly. Don't waste your money on expensive creams. 😀
in my case : ketoconazole = not effective selenium sulfide = no effect tar = no effect zinc = effective, but shorter interval and it also depends on humidity
My fix was getting 15-30min of sun every day, avoiding sulfate and silicone based shampoo and going on a low carb diet with intermittent fasting (8/16 window). Also sulphur soap is a godsend for cleaning the face after exercises. Took me around 2-3 weeks doing this to see improvements.
Thanks from the Uk 🇬🇧👍🏻 yeah, Nizoral is like a miracle worker for me... I not only rub it into my scalp but face, other areas & leave it for like a few minutes... Clears it right up... Head & Shoulders / E45 suck... Nizoral is 💯% the greatest 👌🏻🥇🎖️🏆
Nizoral is banned in Europe and for good reasons, especially long term use. I used Kelual which got rid of it and kept it at bay but the chemicals in it made my hair fall because it would dry my scalp then somehow unclogged the pores who made it extra greasy after three days. For my face, rubbing castor oil on affected areas of the face every night kept the problem under control and is what I do to this day and swear by it. For the scalp I am yet to find a natural remedy. I have noticed the scalp gets worse the weeks following a stressful time or a stretch of few days where I haven't slept well and got good rest.
I have had this around my nose flaring up randomly for years - I have been doing a facial massage programme for the past few weeks (GLOW) which includes a lymphatic drainage exercise and it's completely cleared it up even though that's not the aim of the programme.
I'm 29 and last month started contact dermatitis to office dust. This is extremely annoying cause this happens on face. I went to doctor 3-times and firstly he gave steroids cream and pill, at the second time, he gave antifungal cream and pill, and at the last time, glutathione pill, multi vitamins and collagen powder..😅 Thank you for sharing these products about what my doctor didn't discuss..❤
Zinc pyrithione is supposedly bad for the environment, mainly for fish and other animals living in water. I think this might be worth looking into when considering using these types of products. I'm living in Sweden and googled the active ingredient out of curiosity and saw lots of controversy and articles regarding it and companies removing it from the products like Head & Shoulders shampoo for example. Don't want to be a hater or anything just a heads up :)
"As of March 1, 2022, the substance is prohibited from being used in cosmetic products within the EU, citing that it is considered toxic and because it has not been established that there are no alternatives against dandruff." I remember when I was teenager in late 90´s one wash with Head & Shoulders was enough to rid me from dandruff, no wonder it is not working today. Any idea what to buy here in Sweden that works? Cosmetic products are not my strong side so to say. Kind Regards
Mine has been getting progressively worse and has even moved into making big red patches in my scalp along my hair line. I'm going to try all of these. I also heard it can be from lack of vitamin D3 and excess carbohydrate consumption so I'm also going to try that.
Homemade Scalp Treatment for Seborrheic Dermatitis or Malassezia Control This recipe worked for me, and it combines natural ingredients with antifungal and soothing properties to help manage scalp conditions. Here's how to make it: Ingredients: 1/3 cup water 2 teaspoons rosemary powder 1 teaspoon green tea 2 teaspoons black tea 1 teaspoon ground coffee Pinch of cinnamon powder 1-2 teaspoons castor oil (preferably organic, black Jamaican castor oil) Instructions: 1. Combine the ingredients: Pour 1/3 cup of water into a pan. Add the rosemary powder, green tea, black tea, ground coffee, and cinnamon powder. 2. Simmer: Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes. Stir occasionally. 3. Add castor oil: Remove the mixture from heat and stir in 1 to 2 teaspoons of castor oil. Note that the castor oil won’t fully mix with the liquid (this is normal), but it will still be effective. 4. Apply the mixture: Pour the treatment onto your scalp and gently massage it in. Make sure to cover all affected areas, and leave it on for as long as possible - at least 1 hour, but longer if you can. 5. Rinse out: After the treatment has set, shampoo your hair to remove the mixture. You may need to wash your hair twice to fully remove the oils. 6. Optional: This mixture can also be used on the face for areas affected by seborrheic dermatitis. Tips: Castor oil is sticky but won't leave your skin greasy. It helps moisturize and support healing. For best results, use organic castor oil. Black Jamaican castor oil is a great choice for its extra nourishing properties. The most important ingredients in this treatment are castor oil, rosemary, and the teas, as they all have antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and soothing benefits.
I have struggled with this for about 12 years, and have tried so many different things without any results. But this video changed everything. According to the information in this video, I ordered a special shampoo together with a PCA Zinc face cream. Now, for the first time in a decennia, my scalp is itch-free and my face looks happier and healthier than ever before. I am so, so grateful for this video and how it honestly was a life-changer. THANK YOU! ❤
Azelaic acid has been a gamechanger for me. Totally unexpected and accidental discovery given it’s not really promoted as a seb dem treatment and ironically, I think, azelaic acid is actually a byproduct of malassezia yeast 🤯 But, started off using 10% twice a day and within a month, it had cleared up like 90%. I used to take ketoconazole orally and that only dialled it down like 5% 🤯
🌟 To better understand which ingredients you should avoid and which products are right for you, I highly recommend reading this in-depth article for Malassezia and other fungal acne skin conditions.

As much as I have figured out
Stress is the culprit which makes sebhorric dermatitis worse☹️😣
Agreed, its anxiety for me. If I'm having a good string of days then my skin will clear up, but if I keep having reoccuring anxiety then my sebder flares up incredibly bad.
Go do a parasitic test and see for yourself what truly is the cause of inflammation of your skin
@@fredlada1634 cause is overgrowth of fungus due to my oily skin but whenever I'm in stress it becomes worse
@@Alishba_ヅ Stress is what's triggering it the most for you and manny others, because stress affects the immune system. 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.
Cut stress and sugar. Antifungal creams for the face with cerave daily moist 30 SpF. Head&Shoulders clinical selenium sulfide 1% shampoo, ketoconazole/zinc didn't work for me in the long run. The game changer was black seed oil, take it daily - totally destroyed that nasty fungi.
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.
i have the same routine and while it works fine, i still get flare ups especially when i am not getting good sleep
I thought head and shoulders was bad
@jimmys7985 its bad based on ingredients but people are ignorant about or while at the same time dandruff is so horrible you really get to put anything on younto solve it 😢
I think some of the stuff around the nose could be due to an Omega 3/6 imbalance and could probably be cured with eating more fish or taking fish oil. Worked for me.
Regenepure Dr. Give that a try it's much better than nizoral, it has the same active ingredient
for people who cant afford or dont trust creams - try cutting all sugars and all grains out of your diet and see if your skin clears up after a month or two. basically a meat & vegetable diet.
You mean no oatmeal. Cereals.
Yeah sugar and oats makes it bad
@@Trudeautthebesttit really does, I notice if I have a couple of beers I can smell my scalp the next day
I never had any grain and wheat food stuff for months and still this sickness hasn't come off
@@damnwhyisitsohardIt’s not just grain or wheat, it’s basically cut out carbs, except natural whole food vegetables. Check out either clean ketogenic or carnivore diet. When I went clean keto my skin and scalp got much better, when I went carnivore for a month, it completely clear up without any special cleanser or medicated products. Just sharing what I experienced, everyone’s different but strongly suggest to check out the diet and see if it fits your need.
Zinc pirithione is banned in Europe due to implications in cancer, just an info for people who are living in europe
Wikipedia says it’s due to potential water toxicity, which is also low, however in typical eu fashion, since no one made the paperwork to have it legal continuously, it was banned by default
you don't drink that's okay
Zink also decreasing estrogen actually any type.. sooo level adjusted themselves and skin will be looks way better
“Zinc pyrithione can in the laboratory setting trigger a variety of responses, such as DNA damage in skin cells.” -Wikipedia. Also, research has shown that monkeys topically treated with ZP have been shown to pass it in their urine. So clearly it is cytotoxic (kills cells) and can cause DNA damage (cancer) and be absorbed by the body. I would avoid it. Wouldn’t be surprised if it contributed to baldness.
Yees, I'm from Poland and I'm just wondering if I can use "Piroctone Olamine" instead.
Appreciate the input ! I’ve been dealing with this for almost 20 years without success. The topical creams I was given by my old dermatologist burned my skin so badly I never wanted to go back and try again.
Your energy is calm and alluring. Thank you for sharing this ❤
It's the calming face wash😊
My seborrhoeic dermatitis has gone 90% away after I started supplementing vitamin D. This was entirely unexpected. It is a very very cheap supplement with many benefits, so it's at least worth a try!
I use a pill that has a vitamin D3 and K2 combo. I heard it is an inflammation from immune system response as I am now closing in on 51 y/o. It kicked-up out of nowhere as a slight rash on the forehead in early 2018 and worsened since spreading to both cheeks. I also use a a topical steroid. Cortizone-10. After treating 2 dufferent workout injuries, I had to orally take Prednisone. It goes away completely after 5 days, is good for about a week but then come back.
How many days you take After when You Feel Change ?
@@wiilkahargeysajecel8748 quickly: less than a week
@@wiilkahargeysajecel8748 less than a week! Beware: 2000 UI was not enough for me, I need to take 4000, at least in the winter. This summer I will try to lower the dose. I started taking it because I was mildly deficient, so for the first two weeks or so I took trile dose, then went down to 2000, that is the usual maintenance dose, and the dermatitis quickly came back. Upped to 4000, and it went away again. Good luck!
How much ui supplement do you take ?
My brother and I BOTH have a problem that sounds ALOT like what you’re saying. DEFINITELY gonna try these products out. CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH MY FRIEND. This skin condition has been driving the both of us CRAZY for years. If this helps YOU ARE AN ANGEL and you have NO IDEA what your video would have done to help us out. Again THANK YOU.

Did it help
@@GameTrends-w4w I have it and I've also been using similar products for a couple years now and really helps, just don't get lazy with it and it wont come back as often. Unfortunately it's a lifelong condition because it's basically an allergy. Figuring these things out really make a difference.

Straight to the point, no bs, well explained, better than a lot of dermatologists on YT, thanks for these info, will try them out.
That makes me really happy to hear. Keep me updated on your progress!
Ceramides play a significant role in managing Malassezia-related skin conditions. They possess antifungal properties, and their deficiency has been linked to increased Malassezia growth, particularly in atopic dermatitis and seborrheic dermatitis.
The CeraVe Renewing SA Cleanser is great for it too, use it each time you shower and moisturise after with either CeraVe Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Serum or CeraVe AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion.
Curlsmith Post Wash Calming Conditioner for your scalp.
These worked great for me + having a healthier diet makes a huge difference!
What is the use of serum and lotion and where we have to use.
Thank you so much for sharing this in-depth experience that you've had!
I found that for me, Salicylic Acid helped to prevent the Malassezia from having effects on the skin/scalp. As Salicylic Acid is naturally antiinflammatory, the redness and irritation caused from Seborrheic Dermatitis can be targeted simultaneously.
I'm sure this video will go on to support many other people with this skin condition, so thanks again for all of your efforts towards this video!
Hey thanks for sharing! I'll check out Salicylic Acid and see if it works for me. I really appreciate your input and support 👑
Bless you!! You have no idea how many times I have discussed my skin problems with doctors in Canada, also dermatologists. (the dermatologists did help with accutane) I got more information from you in this video on the seb derm!! Thank you for being a good, kind guy!!

My red rash on my face is better, and the flaky skin on my face is clearly getting better. Thank buddy, keep being a good person!!!
@@stephenmorley2258 Zinc is the way!🔥
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.
Thanks so much. I have had this condition for ages and still can’t get on top of it. This is awesome information.
Raw honey daily on affected area aslong as you can and wash it off with water only. Don’t use soap daily on face. Once it disappeare you can put honey 2-3 time a week.
Better?
This was good. Watch ken Barry also
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.
Sulfur soap... I struggled with this for 20 years (and used the ketoconazole creams and shampoos to keep my flair ups under control). But the one thing that solved the problem for me was using sulfur soap on a regular basis. I think it's wise to cut down on processed sugar as well, but sulfur soap, for me, was it. I've since stopped buying the ketoconazole creams and shampoos. Thanks!
On scalp also it works?
for me I found it effective as well. along with selenium sulfide which also has sulfur in its composition.@@shankarshah9435
, I'm not the original commenter, but I started using sulfur soap for my face and hair about a month ago, and, yes, it's gotten rid of my dandruff, scabs, and welts in my hair as well.
Yep. I just buy a $5 bar of sulfur soap ever few months and the problem is solved. @@Uncle_Red
Facts !
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.
This was what I was hoping the video was about. Your external is a reflection of your internal.
Thank you for sharing. I've been inspired to take a look at my health and address the core issue.

Thanks for the video. I'm starting off with fasting. Then no carbs no sugar in my diet. I am outside in the summer... I think UV light might be helpful.
Great video. Ty
Try giving up dairy. Cheese is the trigger for me. Small amounts of milk occasionally don’t seem to cause it but cheese more than once in a week definitely flares it up. I got it in my fifties too. It took a couple of years to figure out was doing it.
Did it help?
I have found that being in the Sun also reduces the outbreaks. I figure that it's the UV light killing the fungus.
Yeast, and more generally fermented food items effect mine
dairy is trigger indeed.
My evidence is anecdotal, but I found that after consuming Flax oil, which is mostly omega 3, for a few weeks, my skin flare-ups decreased substantially. It has a sort of nutty taste, so I mix it with peanut butter and then do whatever I'd usually do with peanut butter.
Interesting
Omega-3 is something you should try. I ve seen it work too on myself@@Bleek17Six
I’ve also noticed an improvement since taking omega 3 fatty acids (I’ve opted for algae oil, as it’s a superior source). My theory is that it supports the skin barrier and that impaired skin barriers are an underlying cause of many skin conditions 🤷🏼♀️
In a 2001 study, people with seborrheic dermatitis of the face or scalp applied a mixture of 90% raw honey and 10% warm water to affected areas. The mixture was left on for three hours before rinsing it off with warm water. This was done every other day for four weeks.
All the patients responded markedly with application of honey. Itching was relieved and scaling was disappeared within one week. Skin lesions were healed and disappeared completely within 2 weeks. In addition, patients showed subjective improvement in hair loss.
None of the patients (15 patients) treated with honey application once weekly for six months showed relapse while the 12/15 patients who had no treatment with honey experienced a relapse of the lesions 2-4 months after stopping treatment.

Sorry but no one has time to smear honey on their head for three hours a day every other day for four weeks.
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.
Have you tried Selenium Sulfide? There's a Head & Shoulders Clinical Strength Dandruff Shampoo with Selenium Sulfide instead of Zinc. It is specifically for Seborrheic Dermatitis
EU banned both Zinc Pyrithione and Selenium Sulfide, which were the only ingredients that worked in my case...
Oof... 😢
Why are they banned?
Probably because they are not a cure. You should switch up your diet and dump as much sugar out.@@Uncle_Red
Selenium sulfide still available
19 years i have been suffering from this, ill give it a go thanks
Your explanation and analysis sounds spot on as opposed to the doctors who just thrown corticosteroids at it i gave up with the dermo and gp years ago and just learned to accept it
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.
Check your gut microbiome, look for Functional Medicine doctors that make you thorough tests. As above so below: if you have fungus on your skin you likely have fungus in your microbiome.
It actually can be helped a lot by lifestyle incl limiting processed sugar snd carbs esp for few weeks. Also maybe dairy and or gluten. Try it.

Microbiome tests aren’t fully understood or accurate yet. Change diet. Find what works for you w/o expensive tests and protocols.
@@jmc8076 Nope. If you don't have time to lose, you need to test. Not only poop, blood, breath, urine, hair. Define "expensive" in a system where public health doesn't exists or doesn't do what it should. Public health should offer those tests and diets but they won't do it, they'd rather let people suffer.
Ketoconazole completely cleared my skin up after one wash…. Been rash free for 4months meow…. Stuff is golden 🤙🏼been dealing with this issue for over 10yrs. Highly recommend
So, for years I was using corticosteroid creams on my face to treat the plaques, but at some point, I realized it wasn’t doing me any good long-term. I decided to try more natural stuff, and now I’m managing my flare-ups pretty easily with simple products.
What works for me:
Be careful with baking soda because it’s alkaline and can mess up your skin’s pH if you overdo it. I dissolve a teaspoon in warm water, dab it on the plaques with a cotton swab, leave it for 10-15 minutes, then rinse off and apply coconut oil.
⚠️ Important: Don’t use it every day! Better to use it every 48-72 hours depending on how bad your flare-ups are, and make sure you see how your skin reacts the first day before using it often.
Coconut oil is super moisturizing and anti-inflammatory. If you’ve got oily skin, you could try olive oil instead.
For my scalp, I use pharmacy shampoos made specifically for psoriasis and dermatitis.
I also changed my diet and started taking marine lecithin supplements to help prevent flare-ups.
⚠️ Very important: What works for me might not work for everyone. You’re responsible for your own health, so definitely check with a professional before trying anything new, especially if your skin is sensitive. I don’t want anyone having a bad reaction to something just because it worked for me.
Also, I know that in America, meds and doctors can get expensive, so I wanted to share this in case it helps anyone out there. Sorry if there are any spelling mistakes, and sending greetings from France!
This is so helpful! Can’t wait to share it with my siblings. I always assumed I had rosacea!
I was diagnosed for rosacea but im 99% sure its this. Cutting sugar helps a lot.
Video is legit. Do the p-zinc (head and shoulders). Let that sit on your face for about 10 min. Try not to drink alcohol and try not to consume simple carbs like sugar (candy). If you do those few things, the seb. Derm will lesson over time.
This dude knows what he is talking about.
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.
Si c'est pas indiscret il y aurait moyen de partager les 3 produits que tu utilises?
I started to develop this condition in the past few months. I have psoriasis, so I sadly thought the redness on my face is related to that. always during and after gym, those red patches used to "come out". now I have multiple red patches on my face, which I can only treat with 2% Ketoconazole Shampoo. do you think that would be enough? Zinc Pyrithione has been banned by the EU, so I don't know what else to use to stop things getting worse.
@@David-qr5sg le medecin m'a prescrit du ketoconazole en shampoing, et de la ciclopiroxolamine et du metronidazole en crème. Le traitement est long, il faut le poursuivre plusieurs mois mais ca fait effet. Par contre il faut eviter tour ce qui est parfum (à base d'alcool) et eau chaude.
my dermatologists always said this thing basically never clears up and the best I could do is use the creams they gave me when it flares up. I've been through the ringer because of seb derm, and this video is actually very helpful, thank you for this!
Hi! I had the same problem as you did but I used a cheaper method. Protex soap. I washed my head and face any other day and for me worked perfectly. Great video though.
Those who have it on their scalp try organic apple cider vinegar as a leave in spray on the scalp. Works well.
I use Dercos Anti-Dandruff Shampoo For Normal To Oily Hair, which was more effective for me with less side effects than Ketoconazole. The sensitive version seems to lack some of the active ingredients of the normal-oily variant, so I wouldn't recommend that one unless you find it works for you.
Thanks for the ZnP tip, I'll try that one.
I have the same condition, using ketaconazol on my face improved it framatically, it is not meant for your hair only
yea its also good on your face but some people have sensitive skin so they need something not as strong
@@juliansanchez_04 Yes I agree, the shampoo was too strong for me

I suffer from Seborrheic Dermatitis since I am 10 years old. Actually I am 48 years old.
Since half a year I avoid alcohol, caffeine, sugar and stress.
Moreover I use Ketoconazol shampoo and vitamin D and K2.
And what have I to say? My Seborrheic Dermatitis has disappeared for 99% 👍🏻🙂
& a good 8 hours sleep is a Must!!
I had a pretty severe outbreak of this condition recently and used coconut oil one time and it cleared up all of it.
Much simpler remedies are gelatin of animal origin in lukewarm water and then applied to a clean scalp. Then rinsed with warm water. For the face I used ghee for months instead of moisturiser. And after several months, I use a moisteriser, I stopped using ghee, because I do not need it anymore. Doctors thought I had rosacea and wondered how I cured it. But I don't stop applying the gelatin to the scalp every time I wash my hair. It stops the malassezia from growing.
what gelatin and what ghee did you use? Did it get rid of it ?
@@markrem6573 I make my own ghee from unsalted butter. Gelatin I buy from the shops, any make will do, as far as it is from animal origin. I use Dr. Oetker's. Try these remedies, it is a completely natural, safe and cheap way to have healthy skin and scalp.👍

One key thing that drastically helped clear up my skin 98% head and face. Is I stopped smoking and drinking alcohol, and started taking vitamin d supplements, combined with the shampoo he mentioned. I just need to stop eating so many carbs and fats to cut the 2% out
Great video. When my son was an infant, he was diagnosed with Asthma as well as having odd spots of red angry dermatitis on his back and upper arms. We were lucky enough to find a doctor who specialised in infant dermatitis, he told us to use Selsun Gold but in very small amount, diluted in warm water, as a wash on the areas. We only used it only a few times, and the skin problem resolved and didn’t return.
Tried all this a loooong time ago in my 20s. After a while it stops being effective. Also, you don't actually need it.
Face: I use native coconut oil (the one you can eat) as after-shave for the last 12 years. Not a signle flake on my face since...
Dandruff: Just go to sauna, and rub your scalp with your finger tips while there. Initialy 3 times a week. When it clears up, just do it once or twice a month to maintain.
Thank You for this I look forward to trying these.
I've struggled with this for years without the benefit of having healthcare. It took me years to just figure out what it was. Then there wasn't much information to be found out there.
My condition is pretty severe with patchting my head (bald) and my face (beard) which I grew out to hide the flare-ups, but clearly made flaking more pronounced.
Way back when, I used different types of Anti-dandruff on my face and head. Which held the flakes at bay for a day or so, but would greatly agitate my my exposed skin so bad that the patches would practically glow bright red. Sympathy for Rudolph Vibes. There are a multitude of worse things to have, but this can be highly embarrassing and shameful at its worst.
So I would like to share what little information I picked up along the way that's worked for me up until now, for others of us out who share in this.
I found that by using a Probiotic Soap that was mild enough for everyday use (sometimes twice a day in the beginning and during certain flareups) kept my severe condition highly manageable. I buy mine through Amazon because its not easy to find in stores.
I'm not proposing that this works better than what is video offers as I intend on looing into these products as well.
I just wanted to put some additional knowldge out there to help our community. I hope this helps anyone who finds this.
P.S. Soap use; Lather and work into your skin like makeup removal. Leave for a few, letting it do its thing, then rinse.
This is AMAZING
Thank you!!!!
Ive had on and off issues with this around my nose!!
Is it working? I have this around my nose too
And remember to always wear a good sunscreen. Raw flare up plus sun exposure can lead to a basal cell carcinoma. I've had it twice. Not skin cancer - that requires chemo.
The carnivour diet cured my acne and dandruff, but it took almost 4 months. I like the background bro.
I hear carnivore diets are good for people with autoimmune issues! Might give it a shot 🔥
Tried carnivore for a month didnt change my dandruff. Did you notice a difference after a month at all?
I do the carnivore diet and my seborrheic dermatitis went away. I used to get it bad!
@@KA-rr6lu that is the pitfall of carnivore and keto. People think the results show after like a week.. to a maximum of a month.. but it takes a huge amount of time for your body to adapt fully after having eaten everything for your whole life, your body only starts to really get used to it after a minimum of a month..
@@KA-rr6lu you need to go longer than just a month usually.
I heard gluten and carbs cause this. But I heard a million other things too so I don’t know anymore
I do have more when I eat gluten or when I'm anxious...
People always say that in the summer the condition gets less severe but I found it to be the opposite, the more I stay in the sun the worse the condition gets, probably because of the sweat.
The only thing that gives me relief is ialuronic acid. I use a Malva based shampoo and I have basically no dandruff anymore but the scalp still itches.
My problem is that I have a very oily skin so I have to shower and shampoo every single day. I could try to stop using soap as often to slowly reduce my skin's production but I have become dependant on them to remove the oil from my skin to lessen then dermatitis so I'm stuck.
I suffer from SD. It gets worse from April to September. Scalp: I have no dandruff anymore, but the scalp still itches and/or tingles all year long. On the face: non stop burning sensation from April to September. I sweat a lot. Is your face affected? Do you use a sun cream?
@@anniemoisan4508 I get desquamation/inflammation at the sides of the nose and near the eyebrows, mostly. Minor desquamation also on the right side above the lips and the chin, on the forehead and on the chest, between the pectorals.
I only use sunscreen if I'm going outside in direct sunlight for a prolonged period of time, like hiking or the beach.
Looking good brother!
Thanks for the tips!
Any time!
Thank you for making this, I had the same thing.
Thank you. For years I’ve thought I had psoriasis and now I know I have this. Products ordered, this could be life changing.
Hows it going?
@ amazing. Face cleared already and scalp 80% there. So glad this video came up as a recommendation. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 thank you
Can u tell the names of the products you ordered@@tewy79
Thanks for this video. I have had this condition ever since high school and i didn't know what it was or how to fix it until today. I'm going to try these products out hopefully its a goldmine. ♥
How’s it gone for you?👍
@@jonathaaannn I still have some trouble with it on my face but the shampoo is great so far
Apple cider vinegar 1/2 water works great for me. Mix ACV and water in a bottle and spray it on scalp and face and let it dry itself. Do it once every other day. DONT let it get into your eyes tho. It works great for me. 😊
so, to better understand the proportions of the ingredients, you mix let's say 250ml of water and 500ml of acv? that's it?
Thank you for your video and information man!
I always had this but I never knew until this year, when I went to my doctor he thought it was a yeast infection and it only now 4 years later that I’ve found solutions to treat it. Started using a Salicylic acid, Mandelic Acid, & PHA exfoliating cleanser daily while I shower. I just leave it on for a few seconds and rinse. My last flare up was before I started using the cleanser and I had literal scales basically growing in between my eyes and nose. It was so bad I ripped them off and left my face red for a month. Trust me the cleanser works a lot better I also alternate between selsun and head & shoulders for my severe dandruff (when I was a kid I got a buzzcut and my mom thought I was bald from how much dandruff I had. U literally couldn’t see my hair). I’ve also found I get more flare up’s when I pick at my dandruff so just brush the spare flakes and don’t touch your scalp.
Just checked out your channel too. You have lots of good stuff. New subscriber
@@Clean-N-ShineInDfw I appreciate you!
Man, this is great and heartbreaking at the same time. It’s heartbreaking because I thought I could just eat better and it would be gone.
It’s all over my eyebrows and eyelids…
That is the most gorgeous and flattering hairstyle for you!
Hey guys so ive been suffering from dandruff on the scalp and face(around nose, between eyebrows, around mouth) i recently tried applying extra virgin cold expressed coconut oil on my face and scalp(i massage my scalp with as much coconut
Oil as it needs to get the whole top head look wet with coconut oil), then i go to the shower room and using a very clean body wash(i use native body wash) i clean my body first and at the end i put soap on my scalp, i dont do deep massage on my scalp i just scrub my hair to get rid of the excess oil, then i rinse, takes like 10 seconds just so it doesnt look oily, you dont want to get rid of the coconut oil on your scalp…then i just rub my face with water(DO NOT USE SOAP) just to get rid of the excess oil, it will feel oily but once you dry your face with a towel it will be fine, dude, i struggled for so long and all this time could of have used coconut oil, cheap and easy, when i wake up i put on coconut oil on my dace and rinse with water and dry it…just beause i used to wake up with dry looking skin and overgrown skin flakes around my mouth still, but i didnt have that this morning. No more itchy scalp(it used to wake me up) , you gotta do this every night, massage your scalp, its gonna be your every night ritual, give it 10 mins make sure you got coconut oil all over your scalp, its worth it, i tried changing my diet,(i avoid carbs and sugars and processed foods and i still had dandruff) i tried so many things but this one has work wonders, try it and put on your comments here maybe you can also help someone in need as i was in need but no one told me this, was a blessing to find out, and be patient, this gotta be full in, it works, for me at least
i use a prescription only product called diprosalic on my scalp as well as the Nizirol.. it was a game changer... i found that if i stayed on top of treating my scalp, then my face is never as bad
Diprosalic a shampoo? This is my next bet i hope it works, plus a ciclopirox shampoo.
I slowly and cut eating bread (that uses yeast) and avoid drinking beer (also has yeast) reduce my seborrheic. It come and goes but reducing these two help me. Also removing your facial hair helps stop growing dermatitis on face and shortening your haircut also helps.
Thank you and your brother.
I am having one heck of a time trying to figure out what I have and how to fix it. Thank you for the video, I am going to give this a shot. Wish me luck, to everyone else dealing with this, I it goes away
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.
Doctors are idiots most of the time
Yes, it works, but it has long-term side effects. It especially stresses your liver. So I take it only when there is an outbrake again. Normally, I rinse with apple cider Vinegar after washing my hair,that is enough to keep it under control.
@@thepageturnerify How do you know that? Can you provide a source for that? I've never heard that before
@@abdvs325 Read the information sheet in the package.
I saw your video and bought it and now trying it . Thanks !
Nice video! A little funny though that moustirizer has ceramides in it which you said to avoid 😅
And glycerine & HA in it. Strange
yes lol
External treatments are just temporary fixes. Unless you discover the exact core underlying issue it will never be perma cured. Leaky gut and food intolerances are number 1 issues for people suffering like me. Removing dairy and gluten foods from my diet, stopped my flare-ups permanently.
Thank you for this information ❤I needed this 🙏🏽
Of course, thanks for watching!
I used these type of products but after a while their effectiveness waned. I discovered that vinegar applied to the affected areas before washing was much more effective over time - and no carcinogenic chemicals!
Did that not burn your skin? I had burn marks from the apple cider vinegar when applied on warts back in middle school
I've alternated between using malt, distilled and cider apple vinegar and haven't had any problems with burning. Distilled (white) vinegar seems to be the most effective.
You are a star! Thanks for this! I have been looking for ever!
Dip a cotton bud into apple cider vinegar and rub it onto the Seborrheic Dermatitis spots. Leave it on.
Hell no 😂
Not sure where everyone else is at with this but I cut out beer especially hoppy ones like IPA. I loved em but it wasn't worth it besides all the other downsides to drinking. The condition cleared up and only comes back when I drink.
I never knew the conditions i had until i saw your video. I have the exact same condition as you. What had helped me clear the flare ups on my face was brown rice vinegar. If i apply the vinegar once a day, it will clear in 2 days. I tried ACV, but it surprisingly didn't work. Brown rice vinegar smells very strongly, so now i know what alternatives i have.
Suffering for over 20 years. Flare-ups in the winter usually. Tried most things. Recently started slugging. Good facewash or exfoliative at night and apply petroleum jelly. Don't waste your money on expensive creams. 😀
Reduce or change yours carbos and gluten
@@arthurp9511 yeah, its either gluten or dairy. I removed them from my diet and no more flare-ups. Its insane.
Coconut or olive oil instead.
in my case :
ketoconazole = not effective
selenium sulfide = no effect
tar = no effect
zinc = effective, but shorter interval
and it also depends on humidity
Thank you for this information.
Exceptionally helpful information in a short amount of time! Thank you!
I get it from bread and alcohol.
My fix was getting 15-30min of sun every day, avoiding sulfate and silicone based shampoo and going on a low carb diet with intermittent fasting (8/16 window).
Also sulphur soap is a godsend for cleaning the face after exercises.
Took me around 2-3 weeks doing this to see improvements.
Thanks from the Uk 🇬🇧👍🏻 yeah, Nizoral is like a miracle worker for me... I not only rub it into my scalp but face, other areas & leave it for like a few minutes... Clears it right up... Head & Shoulders / E45 suck... Nizoral is 💯% the greatest 👌🏻🥇🎖️🏆
Ketoconazole 2% is a prescription drug in the US. 1% is in a lot of shampoos that are less expensive than Nizoral.
Thanks for the info! Ordering soap and shampoo now. 👍🏻 (By the way, you have great hair! 🙂)
Yes, he does!
Thank you for making this, hope it helps. My face looks just like yours!
Thank you for this video. Is this also the same for scalps?
Yes. Skin on face very similar to scalp. Be gentle with both. Also avoid or limit simple carbs and sugars. Fruit is ok.
Thanks for the video and vulnerability of posting this. This is NOT a cure, but a treatment regime. Great info. 😊
Nizoral is banned in Europe and for good reasons, especially long term use. I used Kelual which got rid of it and kept it at bay but the chemicals in it made my hair fall because it would dry my scalp then somehow unclogged the pores who made it extra greasy after three days. For my face, rubbing castor oil on affected areas of the face every night kept the problem under control and is what I do to this day and swear by it. For the scalp I am yet to find a natural remedy. I have noticed the scalp gets worse the weeks following a stressful time or a stretch of few days where I haven't slept well and got good rest.
So what went right whats the best thing for this condition
Nizoral is not banned, ketoconazole taken orally is. Topical applications are still deemed safe and accessible.
Look for products with Selenium or Pyrthione Zinc if you're unable to find Ketoconazole. Good luck!
Zinc pyritione soap twice a day worked better than nizoral for me and it’s not as harsh on the skin.
@@livezero264 ketoconazole worked the best for me but I’ll alternate, I feel the scalp or fungus builds a tolerance or something lol
I have had this around my nose flaring up randomly for years - I have been doing a facial massage programme for the past few weeks (GLOW) which includes a lymphatic drainage exercise and it's completely cleared it up even though that's not the aim of the programme.
Its basically caused by processed wheat products. Cut out bread / pizzas etc any white bread products.
I don't eat that stuff and still have it. Tried carnivore and animal based too. It's genetic
I'm 29 and last month started contact dermatitis to office dust. This is extremely annoying cause this happens on face. I went to doctor 3-times and
firstly he gave steroids cream and pill,
at the second time, he gave antifungal cream and pill, and at the last time, glutathione pill, multi vitamins and collagen powder..😅
Thank you for sharing these products about what my doctor didn't discuss..❤
Zinc pyrithione is supposedly bad for the environment, mainly for fish and other animals living in water. I think this might be worth looking into when considering using these types of products. I'm living in Sweden and googled the active ingredient out of curiosity and saw lots of controversy and articles regarding it and companies removing it from the products like Head & Shoulders shampoo for example. Don't want to be a hater or anything just a heads up :)
"As of March 1, 2022, the substance is prohibited from being used in cosmetic products within the EU, citing that it is considered toxic and because it has not been established that there are no alternatives against dandruff."
I remember when I was teenager in late 90´s one wash with Head & Shoulders was enough to rid me from dandruff, no wonder it is not working today.
Any idea what to buy here in Sweden that works? Cosmetic products are not my strong side so to say.
Kind Regards
Try a ketoconazole shampoo. It's available off the counter. Consider making an appointment with a doctor to get the right expertise. @@escozez
It is also possibly carcinogenic
Mine has been getting progressively worse and has even moved into making big red patches in my scalp along my hair line. I'm going to try all of these. I also heard it can be from lack of vitamin D3 and excess carbohydrate consumption so I'm also going to try that.
Homemade Scalp Treatment for Seborrheic Dermatitis or Malassezia Control
This recipe worked for me, and it combines natural ingredients with antifungal and soothing properties to help manage scalp conditions. Here's how to make it:
Ingredients:
1/3 cup water
2 teaspoons rosemary powder
1 teaspoon green tea
2 teaspoons black tea
1 teaspoon ground coffee
Pinch of cinnamon powder
1-2 teaspoons castor oil (preferably organic, black Jamaican castor oil)
Instructions:
1. Combine the ingredients: Pour 1/3 cup of water into a pan. Add the rosemary powder, green tea, black tea, ground coffee, and cinnamon powder.
2. Simmer: Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes. Stir occasionally.
3. Add castor oil: Remove the mixture from heat and stir in 1 to 2 teaspoons of castor oil. Note that the castor oil won’t fully mix with the liquid (this is normal), but it will still be effective.
4. Apply the mixture: Pour the treatment onto your scalp and gently massage it in. Make sure to cover all affected areas, and leave it on for as long as possible - at least 1 hour, but longer if you can.
5. Rinse out: After the treatment has set, shampoo your hair to remove the mixture. You may need to wash your hair twice to fully remove the oils.
6. Optional: This mixture can also be used on the face for areas affected by seborrheic dermatitis.
Tips:
Castor oil is sticky but won't leave your skin greasy. It helps moisturize and support healing.
For best results, use organic castor oil. Black Jamaican castor oil is a great choice for its extra nourishing properties.
The most important ingredients in this treatment are castor oil, rosemary, and the teas, as they all have antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and soothing benefits.
I have struggled with this for about 12 years, and have tried so many different things without any results.
But this video changed everything. According to the information in this video, I ordered a special shampoo together with a PCA Zinc face cream. Now, for the first time in a decennia, my scalp is itch-free and my face looks happier and healthier than ever before.
I am so, so grateful for this video and how it honestly was a life-changer.
THANK YOU! ❤
That's an amazing story! Thank you for sharing and I'm happy I could help 👑
You had seborrhoeic dermatitis on your face or scalp??
Azelaic acid has been a gamechanger for me. Totally unexpected and accidental discovery given it’s not really promoted as a seb dem treatment and ironically, I think, azelaic acid is actually a byproduct of malassezia yeast 🤯 But, started off using 10% twice a day and within a month, it had cleared up like 90%. I used to take ketoconazole orally and that only dialled it down like 5% 🤯
Can we use this acid on face and scalp both?
REALLY YHANK YOU , I mean it
Thank you, like really appreciate it 🙌
