What you're describing does sound like seborrhic dermatitis and that is something that needs continuous treatment for keeping it under control. just suggesting remedies once will not eliminate it. see a dermatologist closer to you and maintain proper follow up.
I practice in mumbai. You can meet me and get it properly assessed if you wish. A direct consultation would always be preferable to an online consultation.
