Filter by:Seborrheic dermatitis is a common, inflammatory skin condition that causes flaky, white to yellowish scales to form on oily areas such as the scalp or inside the ear. These scales can occur with or without underlying reddened skin. In addition to causing psychological distress, low self esteem, and embarrassment, seborrheic dermatitis is associated with scalp pruritus (itch). Treatment modalities exist to control scalp flaking and itch associated with seborrheic dermatitis, although such therapies often lose efficacy over time. As seborrheic dermatitis is a chronic (life-long) condition, better treatments are needed. The investigators propose to better characterize in subjects with seborrheic dermatitis involving the scalp versus normal scalp controls: (a) the clinical characteristics of the associated itch and (b) the pattern of nerve innervation to the scalp. In this way, the investigators hope to get a comprehensive understanding of the factors causing scalp itch with the aim that this information will create new candidates to which treatment modalities can be designed. At least 12 (up to 20) subjects and similar number of control subjects without disease will have one clinic visit including questionnaires, testing of sensation on the scalp, and biopsy of the scalp.
The purpose of this study is to determine if two test products are safe and effective in the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether proactive use of 0.1% tacrolimus ointment once or twice weekly can keep adult facial SD in remission and reduce the incidence of exacerbation.
The aims of this study are to compare the effectiveness of antifungal foam versus antifungal shampoo and determine patient compliance and satisfaction with both vehicles among African American females with dandruff practicing less than once weekly hair washing.
This study is an evaluation of the role of topical dissolved oxygen to lessen visible signs of photodamage using a select regimen of topical dissolved oxygen containing cosmeceutical products. Evaluation of the overall skin tolerability of topical dissolved oxygen (safety) utilizing the regimen of products.
The purpose of this study is to test whether the stimulation of vascularization and cellular metabolism on the scalp by use of the HairMax LaserComb will produce improvement in the condition of scalp seborrheic dermatitis.
A growing body of evidence supports the hypothesis that the pathophysiology of seborrhoeic dermatitis has a potentially causative neurogenic inflammatory aspect. ASF1057 is a new drug that acts through a modulation of neurogenic inflammation through important complementary mechanisms of action. This study will test the efficacy and safety of ASF1057 in the treatment of patients with seborrhoeic dermatitis.
This is an exploratory study to determine effectiveness of Elidel for the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis
