Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have facial hair while suffering from severe dandruff. Well premature greying of hair is known as Canites. This is usually hereditary or genetic. It may occcur due to nutritional deficiency or cosmetic use. Environmental factors such as ultraviolet light, smoking, deficiency of trace elements can also cause premature graying. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination and treatment . Doctor may prescribe Melitane . This gel has to be applied over the affected hair once a day. Condition usually start improving after 4-6 weeks of use. Doctor may also prescribe vitamin mineral supplement .


Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
