Seborrheic dermatitis (Seborrheic eczema) is a condition of the skin than mainly attacks the scalp.

The redness, swelling and greasy patches can possibly extend to the sides of the nose, in and out the eyebrows, on the mid-chest, in the armpits, upper back and in the groin area. In this article we focus on dermatitis on the scalp. And how to treat it with the Neofollics treatment.

The eczema can go away with a good treatment, but it is always possible that the symptoms return later. That is why it is important to treat it the right way to make the chance as slight as possible that it will return or extend to other parts of your body.

What causes Seborrheic dermatitis?

Seborrheic Dermatitis is most common between the ages 30 and 60, but it is possible to also occur in younger and older people. About 3 to 10 out of 100 people are affected and it is more common among men than women. The most likely cause of Seborrheic eczema is an inflammatory reaction to excess Malassezia yeast, which is an organism that lives on the skin’s surface. The Malassezia overgrows and your immune system overreacts to it. The overreaction of your immune system leads to an inflammatory response that results in skin changes.

In the image above eczema arises:

1. Hyperprofilation is being caused by Malassezia fungi.
2. Micro-inflammations develop on the scalp.
3. Visible loose flakes are formed on your scalp.

Even though expert don’t know exactly what can cause Seborrheic eczema it is highly likely; stress, your genes, medicines and cold and dry weather are playing a factor. At least, it doesn’t come from an allergic reaction or from being unclean, which you might think.

The following conditions can also lead to eczema around the scalp area and around the hairline: Parkinson, epilepsy or other traumatic brain/ spine injuries, HIV, recovering from a heart attack/ heart stroke, alcoholism, Hepatitis C virus, Psoriasis, down syndrome, zinc deficiency and certain psychiatric diseases like depression or eating disorder.

How you can prevent and get rid of seborrheic dermatitis on the scalp?

Does the weather have an impact on seborrheic dermatitis

Dry air in the winter, can make your scalp condition worse. Just as the dry air from the winter strips moisture from our face, arms, hands, and legs, like eczema, it strips moisture from our scalp as well. Which makes it more vulnerable. 

Seborrheic dermatitis behaves better in the sun. The UV of the sun has been shown to kill the type of yeast that overgrows on the skin of people who have seborrheic dermatitis. But you should be aware that the sun has other health effects on your skin, and you can get sunburns. That is why we advise you to treat the seborrheic dermatitis with our products.

The difference between psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis

Psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis might have some of the same symptoms. But there is a difference, which we explain below!

Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease that affects up to 4% of the population. The scales due to psoriasis are thick and the edges are well-defined. On the scalp, the scales are more silvery colored than white or yellow.

Seborrheic dermatitis has more yellow and white looking-like flakes. It is smaller scales than the scales due to psoriasis. There is also a condition called sebopsoriasis, which is literally a condition of the two conditions overlapping. The flakes are both, yellow and silver and they are itchy. 

When to inform a dermatologist?

If the eczema spreads to more parts of your body than in the worst-case scenario you should inform a dermatologist who can prescribe you a drug against fungal infections like azelaic acid, metronidazole, and ketoconazole, this drug acts directly to the Malassezia yeast. But there could be side effects like severe burning, itching, tingling, stinging, or warmth.

Does seborrheic dermatitis cause hair loss?

The short answer is no! 

But unfortunately, it causes your scalp to itch, so people might rub or scratch on their hair. This can destroy the hair follicles and cause hair loss.
