Hi , greetings. Cetaphil won't help in acne or in dandruff. You need an antifungal shampoo for dandruff and probably even a short course or oral antifungals. This will even solve your issue of fungal folliculitis on the back. Hope this helps. See a dermatologist near you. Warm regards, Dr Govind S Mittal.
