seborrheic dermatitis

[delm]

Has anyone had seborrheic dermatitis occur on your scalp after your transplant?

if so, how did you deal with it?

 

I use T-gel shampoo, it doesn't seem to help much, only just for a couple of days..

I hear nizoral would help. Check with your clinic before you use it though.

thanks. I was looking into that shampoo but I read it treats dandruff not seborrheic dermatitis.

Isn't dandruff a mild form of Seb. Dermatitis?

 

I read it's used to treat both.

Could be, I guess.

 

I'd love to hear from anyone who had seborrheic dermatitis on their scalp after their transplant. I hear it can hurt the transplants.

I use Ionil T daily & have done for over 20 years. It is tar based & fantastic for that type of condition. I also use Rogaine Foam daily & tend to use that as a mousse type product.

 

That said, i wouldnt recommend using it for at least 10 days post transplant. My surgeon recommended i stop taking it for 10 days to ensure the grafts settle, for the first 10 days post op i used a very soft, organic shampoo & conditioner only...
