Hi,
The peeling has stopped for the past few days. I moisturize my forehead at night with alot of cream and put a thin layer of vaseline over it aswell to hold the moisture in and in the morning the skin seems hydrated but after a few hours my skin seems to go dry and wrinkled slightly and gets worse throughout the day. I tried using hydrocortisone and that hasnt helped the dryness either. My doctor also gave me doublebase and I've tried 5% urea creams. Is there anything that would help? How about if I had a skin peel?
Hello,
This peeling can be due to Nizoral shampoo and seborrheic dermatitis itself can cause peeling. So in addition to the topical antifungals, oral antifungal drugs and immunomodulators such as tacrolimus and pimecrolimus can be used in very severe cases. In place of Nizoral, you can get yourself prescribed some other topical antifungal also.
