Regular Member wprevil Posted May 8 Regular Member Share Posted May 8 (edited) Hi guys.. Its been 6 months now since my surgery. During this time I've been diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis which feels like I have a cap of hard to remove dandruff on my scalp. My derm prescribed Tsal shampoo. But after a month it hasn't done anything. I asked for a special injection to get rid off it but he stood firmly against it because he claims it can create collagen which can choke the transplanted follicles. I really want to get rid of this fast. Has anyone had this issue after surgery and what was your treatment for it postop?

Senior Member 1978matt Posted May 9 Senior Member Share Posted May 9 Are you in the US? Scalpicin worked for me, which is Hydrocortizone based, when I had an inflamed scalp due to minoxidil. I cannot get it where I live as not in the US. Azelaic Acid cream is very effecting - used it for around nose area where I sometimes get a SD flare up. I also find that avoiding refined sugars lessens the chance of SD. 4,312 FUT grafts (7,676 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2013 1,145 FUE grafts (3,152 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - August 2018 763 FUE grafts (2,094 hairs) with Ray Konior, MD - January 2020 Proscar 1.25mg every 3rd day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long did you shampoo with it until your SD was gone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
