Dry dandruff

Dry dandruff is a common scalp condition in which accumulations of dead cells appear and form fine, white flakes that are visible on the skin and usually fall and are visible on the shoulders. It may be accompanied by itching or tightness of the scalp, but without inflammation. The scalp appears dry, dull and rough.

The mechanism of occurrence of dandruff is due to an increased rate of desquamation of the epidermis, where the cells of the basal layer take half the time of an unaffected scalp to reach the stratum corneum. This abnormal proliferation leads to an increase in the number of horny cells, accompanied by abnormal cementation, resulting in the appearance of large aggregates of horny cells on the scalp.

The specific cause is not known, but there are several determining factors that influence the functional disorder of the epidermis.

  • Environmental conditions: Dandruff is more acute in winter.
  • Hormonal imbalance: dandruff usually appears at puberty and increases until the age of 30. Its appearance coincides with a period of high sebaceous gland activity.
  • Activity of the saprophytic bacterial flora of the scalp: people suffering from dandruff have an increased population of the yeast Malassezia furfur, which makes up 75% of the total microbiota of the scalp.
  • Physical or emotional stress.
  • Diet or alcohol intake
