Hello,
This is the only treatment for seborrheic dermatitis. As there is no known cause to seborrheic dermatitis, what we know is that fungal infection are also involved explaining the therapy suggested by your doctor. With regards to hair transplant, first you should understand why your hair is falling. It is due to inflammation of the scalp which is chronic. If you definitely reverse this inflammation, you can go for hair transplant. If it is not possible, even if you go for hair transplant, that won't work due to inflammation. Anyway, close and regular consultation with dermatologist is highly recommended.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. All the best.
