Using Dandruff Shampoo And Taking Biotin Capsules For Hairfall And Dandruff With No Improvement. How Do I Solve This Problem?
Hi.. I have come to the U.S 4 months ago. I am experiencing severe hair fall due to weather changes. The problem I can see is of dry scalp/dandruff. I am using antidandruff shampoo and also taking biotin capsules but it doesnot seem to help. Can you help me with this problem?

Hi. Thanks for posting at HCM
For severe or unresponsive dandruff and resultant hair fall i would suggest that you consult a dermatologist.
Your treating dermatologist might want to put you on medicated Anti-dandruff shampoo OR overnight leave-on antidandruff lotions.
If this is not enough then your dermatologist might also want to use topical steroid lotion/solutions/foam for rapid relief
Take care
