Tretinoin can irritate seborrheic dermatitis, but using it with a moisturizer on calm skin may help. Parallel Health's skinmicrobiome testing and phage therapy are suggested for persistent issues.
Mallia Aesthetics has developed MAL-838, a hormone-free product derived from sCD83, which stimulates hair growth without disrupting the skinmicrobiome. sCD83 promotes hair growth by activating hair follicles and preventing cell death, offering a localized treatment without systemic side effects.
Gut microbiome imbalances can cause scalp inflammation and affect hair follicles, potentially leading to hair loss. Treatments include finasteride, peptides like BPC-157, TB-500, KPV, and lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise.
Increased Malassezia and Cutibacterium in the scalp microbiome are linked to higher sebum production and inflammation in androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Treatments include ciclopirox shampoo, benzoyl peroxide shampoo, clobetasol propionate, calcipotriol, minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride.
The user experienced significant hair loss on the scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes, and pubic area, along with itchy, flaky skin and red patches. They have a history of eczema and dermatitis and suspect that stopping shampoo use and taking Ritalin may have contributed to the issue.
