Seborrheic Dermatitis (SD) and dandruff are of a consistent range of the very illness that influences the seborrheic region of the body. Dandruff only affects the scalp and is characterized by itchy, flaking skin with no obvious inflammation. The scalp and other seborrheic areas can be affected by SD, which causes pruritus, inflammation, itching, scaling and flaking of the skin. The pathogenesis of SD and dandruff is influenced by a variety of intrinsic and environmental factors, including sebaceous secretions, skin surface fungal colonization, individual susceptibility and interactions between these factors. We present a summary of the most recent information regarding SD and dandruff, including epidemiology, disease burden, clinical manifestations and diagnosis, treatment, genetic studies in human and animal models and risk factors. In animal models, genetic and biochemical research provides additional insight into the pathophysiology and treatment strategies.
