Mesotherapy for Hair Loss and Scalp Seborrhoea

Dandruff is thought to affect 11% of the population worldwide.

The health and appearance of the hair will be affected by Dandruff because shiny, gorgeous locks need a healthy scalp to grow from. This can lead to negative effects on a person’s confidence, urging them to try DIY treatments at home, which can actually make the problem worse.

However, since Dandruff is hidden within the hair, many sufferers decide to just live with it and often never even seek professional help to treat it.

Whilst Dandruff is pretty harmless, there’s a more advanced dermatological problem medically known as Seborrheic Dermatitis, which involves inflammation and itchy, flaking or scaling skin, often mistaken for Dandruff. So, for those suffering from Dandruff, it’s of the utmost importance to seek professional advice.

Dandruff is limited to the scalp, however, whilst Seborrhoea also affects the scalp, it can be found on other parts of the face and body where there’s the most sebaceous (oil) gland activity including the upper back and chest, face/forehead, the around the nose, behind the ears, the navel (belly button), eyebrows, under the breasts and in the creases/bends of the arms, legs and groin.

Since Seborrhoea presents itself with white, scaly flakes, many people assume they have dry skin, and often think using oils and moisturizers will fix the scaling and relieve the itchy feeling. This condition however, is not caused by dry skin, quite the opposite in fact – irritated, oily skin is one of the main culprits of both Dandruff and Seborrhoea, so slathering on oils will definitely do more harm than good!
