I've got these dandruff issues and my doctor gave me diprovate plus cream, but I'm a bit confused on how to use it on my scalp. Do I need to wash it off after applying, and could it mess with my hair in any way? I'm just trying to figure out the right way to apply it.

I'm dealing with really dry skin on my face, but it's weird because it's only in certain areas and it's turning whitish. I already have a gel called Clinmiskin that I used for my pimples before, and it worked great. But now that the pimples are gone, can I use the same gel for the dry and whitish skin on my face?
