Try these treatments for a flake-free scalp.
Dandruff may be common, but that doesn't make it less uncomfortable or cringey for those who struggle with it. Here, Divya Shokeen, M.D., F.A.A.D., a board-certified dermatologist and founder of Ocean Skin and Vein Institute, gives the scoop on three effective treatments that can relieve the itch and banish the flakes.
First, what is dandruff?
White flakes on the scalp and hair are usually thought to be dandruff but can also be due to skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema. Officially, dandruff occurs when the scalp's natural oil production is disrupted, causing the growth of a yeast called Malassezia that feeds on the oils and can cause irritation and flaking.
