Most often, oily seborrhea occurs on the face. Its main manifestations are oily skin, enlarged pores, blackheads mainly on the wings of the nose and cheeks. The skin of the face becomes an unhealthy gray shade.

Signs and symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis

It is not easy to choose an effective remedy for seborrhea on the head of an adult without examination and consultation with a specialist. For pathogens, sebum is an ideal environment for growth, which causes an inflammatory process. Most often, seborrheic manifestations are located at the site of concentration of the sebaceous glands:

on the back;
breasts;
in certain areas of the face;
on the scalp under the hair.

The symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis are determined by the type of disease and the location of inflammation. Damage to the scalp in the area of hair growth is accompanied by the appearance of dandruff. Remedies for the treatment of seborrhea of the scalp are more effective when combined with a dietary regimen.

Manifestations of the disease with diet violations, excessive consumption of spicy and sweet foods, spices and alcohol are significantly aggravated. Nutritional correction reduces the severity of symptoms and speeds up the treatment process.

Basically, with properly prescribed therapy, remedies for seborrhea of the head are effective. The prognosis for dermatitis is very favorable.

Causes of seborrhea on the face

hormonal imbalance in the body during the transition period in adolescents;
unbalanced diet;
disruption of the gastrointestinal tract;
diabetes;
thyroid diseases;
chronic infectious diseases;
avitaminosis;
stress;
weakened immunity.

Men are more susceptible to seborrhea on the face due to the presence of androgens in their blood - hormones that stimulate the sebaceous glands. An excess of these hormones leads to a high level of sebum secretion by the skin.

Folk remedies

In addition to medicinal shampoos, folk recipes are successfully used to treat seborrheic dermatitis. Good reviews of celandine in the treatment of seborrhea. Prescriptions should be in combination; traditional recipes do not exclude, but complement the intake of medications. The use of herbs and essential oils is effective. Baking soda also helps with scalp seborrhea. A variety of masks and lotions help to quickly restore the affected areas of the skin.

Excess sebum causes the development of oily seborrhea, while lack of production leads to dry dermatitis. Therapeutic therapy in both cases requires individual selection of special means after the examination. Specialists will determine the cause of dermatitis and prescribe comprehensive treatment.

You should not try to solve the problem on your own; even traditional recipes are best discussed with a cosmetologist. Among the salon procedures that help in the treatment of seborrhea, it is worth highlighting mesotherapy and darsonvalization. These procedures are included in the range of services at our salon.

Prevention of seborrhea on the face

Dermatologists at the NEARMEDIC clinic recommend:

exclude sweet, spicy, salty, seasonings, alcoholic and carbonated drinks from the diet, so as not to provoke increased sebum production;
cleanse your face every day with special lotions;
use only medicinal cosmetics that suit you;
spend more time in the fresh air;
Avoid prolonged exposure to the scorching sun. In small doses this can even lead to improvement, but in large doses it can lower the skin’s immunity and contribute to the spread of infection.

How to recognize the problem?

Before you find out how to cure seborrhea on the face, it is necessary to diagnose the type of pathology, as well as the degree of development. The disease is usually divided into two types: dry and oily, but recently patients have been diagnosed with “mixed seborrhea” in their medical records.

Since the disease is better treated at the very beginning of its progress, the accompanying symptoms should be carefully studied. Signs of seborrhea on the face will differ depending on its underlying type.

Oily seborrhea

Oily seborrhea of the facial skin is a type of disease that is extremely difficult to cope with on your own.

The flaw appears like this:

The pores noticeably expand, the epithelium resembles an orange peel.
Oily shine appears again and again after using a cleanser on your face.
Large numbers of black dots form on the nose and chin or whitish pimples on the cheeks and forehead, the so-called comedones and milia.

In the event that treatment was not undertaken on time, small retracted and raised scars are added to the symptoms - the consequences of acne. In this case, the itching is practically not felt, but instead, excessive sweating of the palms and oily hair are added to the existing problems.

Dry seborrhea

This type of pathology is primarily identified by excessive dryness of the epithelium, while at first it is difficult to recognize the problem by symptoms. Cosmetic preparations created for moisturizing practically do not help. For this reason, the area of the nose, forehead and cheeks constantly flakes and turns red, becoming rough to the touch. Associated symptoms include sometimes unbearable itching.

At the initial stage of the problem, a person feels only slight discomfort and notices the formation of pinkish or red spots on the face. As it develops, small cracks appear, which act as one of the factors of possible infection. The pathology smoothly moves to the area behind the ear and the scalp. The hair suffers no less - fragility appears, healthy shine disappears, and partial hair loss is possible.

Mixed seborrhea

The combined or mixed type of pathology appears as a cross between the oily and dry subspecies. The known symptoms of both types in a patient with such a problem will not be pronounced:

The redness is not strong and not large-scale and turns into an earthy shade.
The oiliness of the T-zone is combined with dryness of the cheeks and chin. It’s the same story with hair – oily at the roots, most likely it will be dry at the ends.
Despite excessive sebum secretion, the formation of scales is noticeable and the skin is rough.
Itching and burning persist in certain areas of the face.

Getting rid of this disease is difficult, since it is necessary to act on different areas of the skin, and it is not advisable to use the same drugs.

Reasonable treatment of each type of pathology is necessary, since at this time the epidermis is most vulnerable to the development of other serious diseases.
