If you've ever battled relentless scalp itch, flaking, or red patches around your nose, eyebrows, or behind the ears, you may be dealing with seborrheic dermatitis. While steroid shampoos and medicated lotions offer temporary relief, they often come with side effects or risk of dependency. In this article, we explore how QICAOGANGMU Herbal Cream, based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), may provide natural, long-lasting relief—without steroids or harsh chemicals.

What Is Seborrheic Dermatitis?

Seborrheic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition affecting areas rich in oil glands. It often presents as:

• Itchy, flaky scalp (commonly mistaken for dandruff)
• Red patches on the face, especially around the nose and eyebrows
• Greasy scaling on the chest or behind the ears

The exact cause isn’t fully understood, but contributing factors include:

• Overgrowth of Malassezia yeast
• Immune system sensitivity
• Environmental triggers such as stress, cold weather, or humidity

Why Steroids Aren’t Always the Answer

Topical steroids like hydrocortisone or clobetasol are commonly prescribed but come with risks:

For chronic conditions like seborrheic dermatitis, safer long-term solutions are needed.

How TCM Views Seborrheic Dermatitis

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, seborrheic dermatitis is seen as a result of damp-heat accumulation in the skin and imbalance in liver and spleen functions. Common patterns include:

• Damp-Heat: Greasy yellow scaling, itching, redness
• Wind-Damp: Mild flaking with itch triggered by climate or stress
• Blood Heat: Red lesions and inflammation from internal heat

TCM therapy focuses on clearing heat, expelling dampness, and soothing the skin barrier.

QICAOGANGMU: Herbal Cream for Natural Scalp Relief

QICAOGANGMU Herbal Cream is a steroid-free topical formulation combining four core herbs, each selected based on centuries of TCM knowledge and modern research.

Though not a shampoo, QICAOGANGMU is ideal for application to affected skin around the hairline, ears, forehead, and face—places where seborrheic dermatitis often flares up.

Scientific Support for Herbal Relief

Modern studies support the antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties of these ingredients. Research published in Pharmaceutical Biology (2023) demonstrated that Sophora flavescens extract inhibited Malassezia growth, a key factor in seborrheic dermatitis (PMC2923939).

Meanwhile, borneol and menthol have been studied for their skin penetration-enhancing and anti-inflammatory effects, making QICAOGANGMU a potent yet gentle option.

How to Use QICAOGANGMU for Best Results

• Cleanse the area gently with lukewarm water
• Pat dry and apply a thin layer of QICAOGANGMU twice daily
• Do not apply directly to the scalp under thick hair—focus on facial edges and accessible spots
• Continue using for at least 1–2 weeks to evaluate results

Try risk-free with our 100-day guarantee.
