About this treatment
Seborrheic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory condition driven by Malassezia yeast and sebum dysregulation. Amoura's approach combines prescription-grade antifungals, anti-inflammatory scalp therapies, and microbiome-balancing regimens for durable control.
biotech The Science
Seborrheic dermatitis sits at the intersection of three drivers: Malassezia colonisation, sebum overproduction, and dysregulated immunity. Treatment must address all three — antifungal (topical ketoconazole, ciclopirox), anti-inflammatory (corticosteroid pulse, calcineurin inhibitor), and barrier/microbiome repair. Lifestyle modifiers (stress, diet, climate) often determine flare frequency.

Common questions
It is chronic — not curable — but very controllable with the right ongoing plan. Most clients achieve long-term symptom-free remission.
Dandruff is mild seborrhoea. Severe redness, scaling and chronic flaring is seborrhoeic dermatitis — a step beyond, needing medical management.
Severe untreated inflammation can cause shedding — controlling the condition stops this.
Most clients feel significant relief within 7–14 days of starting protocol.
Periodic maintenance washes typically yes — but with smart protocols, intensive treatment is needed only during flares.
For some — reducing high-sugar and high-yeast intake helps stubborn cases.
