Scalp Seborrheic Dermatitis Specialist
At Alloroots, scalp seborrheic dermatitis specialist care is led by Dr. Alok Kumar Sahoo (MD Dermatology, AIIMS New Delhi). Diagnosis is accurate and treatment is tailored for persistent scalp inflammation, itching, and flaking. Patients can book a personalised seborrheic dermatitis treatment plan, which may include medicated shampoos, anti-inflammatory topicals, and regenerative scalp therapies. Consultations are offered in-clinic and online across India, with privacy maintained from booking to follow-up.
Diagnosis and Treatment Planning for Scalp Seborrheic Dermatitis
Assessment begins with a clinical examination to confirm seborrheic dermatitis and rule out conditions such as psoriasis or scalp folliculitis. Dermatoscopy and, if needed, lab tests help identify triggers. Treatment can include:
- Medicated shampoos with antifungal or anti-inflammatory agents on a set schedule
- Topical creams or lotions to reduce redness and scaling
- Oral medication for resistant or severe cases
- Regenerative options such as PRP, i-PRF, or GFC to support scalp recovery
Follow-up reviews adjust care as symptoms change. A first consultation takes 20-30 minutes. Book online or by phone.
Integrated Hair and Scalp Services
Seborrheic dermatitis may occur with hair loss. Alloroots offers combined approaches, including cosmetic concealment through scalp micropigmentation. Regenerative trichology methods like exosome therapy can improve scalp condition before hair transplant surgery. Surgical options such as long hair FUE transplant are planned after inflammation is controlled to reduce complication risk.
Managing Symptoms and Flare-ups
Symptoms can improve and then flare again. Identifying triggers like stress, seasonal changes, or certain hair products helps reduce frequency. Measures include:
- Using prescribed shampoo consistently, even when symptom-free
- Avoiding harsh styling products during inflammation
- Maintaining scalp hygiene without excessive washing
- Attending scheduled check-ins for timely adjustments
Hair loss cases are documented with before/after images stored securely for clinical use only.
