Dandruff
Dandruff is a common scalp disorder affecting almost half
of the population at the post-pubertal age and of any gender and ethnicity. It
often causes itching. It has been well established that keratinocytes play
a key role in the expression and generation of immunological reactions during
dandruff formation. The severity of dandruff may fluctuate with season as it
often worsens in winter. Most cases of dandruff can be easily treated with
specialized oils.
CAUSES
FOR DANDRUFF
Skin cells are formed continuously on
the scalp, so
the shedding of dead skin cells is a normal process. With dandruff, however,
skin cells are shed at a faster rate than normal. Oil from the scalp causes the
skin cells to clump together and appear as white flakes.
Dandruff can be caused by a number of
things, including dry skin; sensitivity to hair products; and skin conditions
such as psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, or eczema.
The overgrowth of yeast can also cause
dandruff. This overgrowth can be caused by stress, hormones, too much oil on the
scalp, or problems with the immune system.
