Out of all the success stories collected on this website up to now, this might be the most surprising yet efficient approach to curing seborrheic dermatitis. I will start by reproducing this post: I had quite bad seborrheic dermatitis over the last 2 years (I’m 28, male, white, British). I’ve had it earlier in my life too but it was at its worse. Red rash all over my temples, cheekbones and creeping onto my forehead and near my nose. I seemed to clear up periodically then come back, and I couldn’t isolate the variable that caused this. I suspected many things: hot baths/showers (dehydrate the skin), sweating, fatty foods, shampoo/soap,…

Success story: l-glutamine
Reproduced from marksdailyapple.com: I dealt with perioral dermatitis for over a year before I fixed it. It is similar to seborrheic dermatitis. It was around my mouth, nose and chin. I went very low carb as you did, thinking I had candida. I think this is what actually made my health in general, far worse. However, I started supplementing with l-glutamine daily on an empty stomach first thing in the morning. I’d wait at least 30 minutes to an hour before eating or drinking anything. L-glutamine is an amino acid that lines our intestines. I’ve talked to Paul Jaminet at perfecthealthdiet.com and he actually told me that l-glutamine is treated…

Success story: oregano oil
Reproduced from curezone.org: I have the same story as everyone. Seen every doctor, they all tell us to use Ketazole, which stops working quick, if it ever does. Steroids work a bit but we all know they have a bunch of repercussions. I tried tea tree oil for a while but even that stopped working. I had bad Seborrheic Dermatitis. My face was covered in dandruff and if I scratched it, it would sometimes bleed underneath the flakes. I had it in my brows, between them, on my forehead, and on and around the nose, and my neck. We’re talking a very VERY intense case. I was doing research about…

Success story: sea salt
Reproduced from curezone.org: Okay, let me begin by saying that I’ve had Seborrheic Dermatitis for over 18 years. So I know what you are going through, and I DO have a cure (or CURES I should say) for you. I have tried everything you can possibly imagine over the years, done thousands of hours of research, tested natural sources (oils, etc.), diet, allergens, and even made my own concoctions. There is not a doctor or person out there that is going to tell me about this condition. While I have seen some people providing information that is on the right track, a HUGE percentage is seriously misguided or incomplete. Before…

Success story: Head&Shoulders on face
Reproduced from reddit.com: Disclaimer: I am not a Doctor. If you are allergic the product I listed, please don’t use it (common sense). This is also not a cure, it is just something that worked for me and might work for you. Consult with your Doctor if you have any concerns using my method before you try it. A little about me. I’m 26 and since high school I would get dry red skin around the inside of my eye brow every winter. Gradually my whole face was getting red and it wasn’t only the winter this time. When I mean my whole face I mean my chin, nose and…

Success story: Avene Cicalfate
Reproduced from reddit.com: I’ve been meaning to write this for a while. I actually read about the product that completely alleviated all my symptoms of SD here on reddit a while ago. Let me begin with who I am and how it affected me. I am 24 year old guy, quite active and sporty so I always found myself sweating a lot while exercising and thought that the excess oil produced by my skin was the cause to SD – which it may be, I don’t know, but I don’t think it is since SD always appears whether or not I’m exercising. I tried absolutely everything listed as I’m sure…

Success story: PromiSeb (Sebclair)
PromiSeb (as it is known in the US) or Sebclair (brand used in Europe) is a novel steroid-free cream containing multiple active ingredients. It has been gaining popularity in treating SD as evidenced by the two stories below. The first story comes from rosacea-support.org: About 10 years ago my Family Doctor/Internist gave prescribed Hydro cortisone.My face was bleeding at times.What Crap….I fired him.Then a dermatologist prescribed Traimcinolone acetonide cream. This worked better….But when I washed my face in the shower with soap…….afterwards my face felt like I had a sunburn.I has already gotten accustomed to having “dandruff” all over my shirt from my faceRecently he turned me on to Promiseb.…

Success story: Nystatin powder
Reproduced from patient.info: Hi Guys. I don’t normally do this kind of thing but after reading some of the posts I felt compelled to help and share my experience of how I CURED my S.D. I’m a 32 year old Irish Stud (joke). In 2011 I developed a small spot underneath my right eye. Little red patch and would come and go. I took no notice. I returned to Ireland after 6 years in Sydney and in 2012 my S.D. had spread to about a 50cent coin size of bright red flaky skin under both eyes, one on my cheek and another on my chin. Like you guys I tried…

Success story: Zinc shampoo
Reproduced from pluscompare.com: I’ve been battling sebborehic dermatitis for at least three years now, and after seeing a dermatologist he explained that the condition was merely an overgrowth of yeast on the scalp and by treating it with a shampoo that contained 2% pyrithion zinc, I had a good chance of clearing it up, as yeast can’t survive in a zinc filled environment. He also told me that you have to leave any dandruff shampoo in your hair for five full minutes in order to give the medicine in them a chance to work. This is a terrific product that has greatly helped subdue the condition. Some other helpful information…

Success story: raw honey and coconut oil
Reproduced from reddit.com: Hello everyone ! I first developed Seb Derm when I was 8 years old. I didn’t have it on my scalp but all over my face and neck. Imagine scaly bright red skin – looked a bit like some disease all over my face and neck during school. Booooo! Dermatologists gave me hydrocortisone which of course made it go for a little while and then brought it back with a vengeance. Anything on my face flared it up – couldn’t go swimming, no make up, crying about it literally made it worse haha. When I was 17 I took a year out to try different remedies. I…
