Guest guest Posted March 21, 2002 Report Share Posted March 21, 2002 , I have a similar problem. I have seb derm and roascea. I went to my doctor, and although she offered suggestions, she just really didn't know how to deal with the situation, so I went on-line here and looked at old posts. I took an old suggestion and use Nizoral on my face. When I started I would put it on and let it stay on for about five minutes once a day. Other times I wahed my face during the day, I just used the Nizoral like liquid soap. Since it is a bit drying, I also rubbed in some liquid Oil Of Olay to wash with. I had immediate results. My seb derm is no longer a real problem. A bit of an itch now and then put that's it. Now, I use the Nizoral twice a day as a soap on my forehead. It is very mild. Kathy D. Seb. derm amd rosacea > I swa a new derm today and he said that the flakies I am having are not from rosacea but seb. derm. He said that I have rosacea but only the flushing. This was first diagnosed about 12 years ago. Is it possible that my rosacea will not develop into the acne but remain as facial redness. He gave me a Rx for a 1:1 compound of Nizoral and a cortisone but I am afraid to use it. He said for only a week to get the seb under control and then to wash my hair everyday with one of 4 shampoos: Head and Shoulders, a tar, Nizoral shampoo and Selsun blue. He said to let the suds run down over my face but I don't ever wash my face in the shower. I am so afraid to put the suds from any of these shampoos on my face. I am more depressed than before I went. I need you help and you support. > Thanks > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
