Have Seborrhea Dermatitis Outbreak Around Eyebrows. Prescribed Epiduo Andtazorac. Suggestions?

I have a seborrhea dermatitis outbreak around my eyebrows. There appears to be many ingrown hairs in the area. When they are removed, the condition seems to start healing until another brow hair tries to surface. My dermatologist prescribed epiduo andtazorac which has not improved the condition.
When this condition started in January, I was yonder extreme stress as my son is very ill. Also, the condition began with being extremely itchy which has since subsided. The scarring from the condition is significant. Any thoughts?
