Flaking/Dandruff due to minoxidol
I am using Minoxidil since past 1.5 months and not seeing any positive impact but seeing flakiness and dandruff on my scalp so could anyone please suggest the solution of this.
Also please suggest if Hair Fibers can be used during hair fall to hide bald patches.
Don't worry...you are suffering from seborrheic dermatitis causing dandruff and flaking... Specific medicine available for good control... Treatment depends on the severity..Do direct online consultation for detailed prescription by sending photos.

U can use hair fibres as a cosmetic alternative for the bald patches. It takes a minimum of 3 months post application to c any difference in ur hair loss. Hair growth is much later. It also depends on the grade of balding u r having and the extent of hair loss for the recovery. Many minoxidil products contain propylene glycol, and alcohol, which can lead to skin rash and irritation when applied topically. Consult a Dermatologist for the same.
