Apart from active management, maintenance therapy is also needed to prevent relapses.

This seems to be seborrhoeic dermatitis. And this is very common with male pattern baldness. Men who start going bald develop scaling that means white dandruff and also redness and rashes on the sides of Jose, eyebrows, around ears and chest. Please contact me using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment
