Explore Dandruff Prevention & Treatment Options

Dandruff is very common amongst children and adults alike, and is caused by the body shedding dead skin cells quicker than usual, producing the distinctive white flakes that can cause your scalp to feel itchy and sore. Whilst there can be a multitude of reasons as to why different people get dandruff, it is more an uncomfortable inconvenience than an actual health concern.

FAQs

What causes dandruff?

Dandruff is often associated with overactive oil glands, a yeast-like fungus known as malassezia, and, in some cases, not shampooing often enough or over-shampooing, leading to dry scalp. Stress and cold weather can exacerbate symptoms.

How can I treat dandruff effectively?

Using a dandruff shampoo with proven ingredients like zinc pyrithione or ketoconazole can be effective. It's recommended to follow the instructions for each product and use consistently for at least a month to see results.

In addition to using targeted shampoos, maintaining a healthy scalp involves considering your hair and skin type, adjusting your hair care routine, and possibly consulting a healthcare professional for persistent symptoms.
