When To Call A Professional
Call your doctor if you have not been able to control your seborrhea with shampoos and creams. Remember, the goal is control. There is no cure.

Cradle cap typically disappears on its own as a child grows. Other forms of seborrhea usually respond to treatment with shampoos and medication.
