What could be the cause of flacky and scaly skin in and around the scalp area

My fiance is 30 and he has a problem with scally, flaky skin on his hairline areas.  Such as scalp, and facial hair.  We have tried dandruff shampoos but nothing seems to work.  It seems like the skin cells are over producing in those areas.  We are getting married in September and we could really use some insight on what this is and how to treat it.

Thanks,
