Seborrhoeic Dermatitis

What is Seborrhoeic Dermatitis?

Seborrhoeic dermatitis is a common skin condition affecting infants, children and adults.

In babies, it is usually seen as cradle cap.

In older children and adults, it often presents with.

  • Dandruff (flaky scalp).
  • Flaky red skin on the eyebrows, around the nose, behind or inside the ears or through the beard.
  • Sensitive red rash in the armpits or groin.

Treatments for this condition are predominantly skin-directed (topical) and include medicated cream, lotions and shampoos.

Sensitive skin may be an issue in people with seborrheic dermatitis and a consultation in our Skin Care Basics specialty clinic can help provide guidance on product selection.
