Anti-Dandruff Treatment
What is Anti-Dandruff Treatment and How Does it Work?
Anti-Dandruff Treatment is a dermatologist-led scalp therapy designed to treat persistent dandruff, flaking, itching, and scalp inflammation at the root cause.
The treatment targets common causes of dandruff such as fungal overgrowth, excess oil production, scalp dryness, and product buildup. Using a combination of medical-grade scalp cleansing, antifungal solutions, soothing serums, and dermatologist-prescribed medications, the scalp environment is restored to a healthy balance.

Anti-Dandruff Treatment Procedure
Pre-Treatment:
A detailed scalp examination is performed by the dermatologist to identify dandruff type and underlying cause. Based on diagnosis, a personalised treatment plan is created. Patients are advised to avoid oiling the scalp before the session.
During the Treatment:
The scalp is deeply cleansed using medical-grade anti-dandruff solutions to remove flakes and fungal buildup. Targeted antifungal and calming agents are then applied to control infection, oiliness, and inflammation. The procedure is comfortable and lasts 45–60 minutes.
Post-Treatment Care & Recovery:
Patients can resume normal activities immediately. Dermatologist-prescribed shampoos and lotions must be used regularly. Avoid oil application and harsh hair products until advised. Multiple sessions may be required for chronic dandruff.
