Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Aloevera has antibacterial properties. But natural isn't always safe when it comes to skin care. Kindly do a patch test before trying.

View allI'm trying to figure out the best lotion for dealing with dandruff. Should I go with Topisal lotion or Dfree lotion? Could you help me understand which one might offer better results? What are the benefits of each? I'm looking for a clear recommendation on which is best.
For dandruff, **Topisal lotion** (salicylic acid-based) is great if you have thick flakes or scalp buildup, as it exfoliates and reduces scaling. **D'Free lotion** (ketoconazole-based) is better if dandruff is due to fungal infections, as it targets the root cause. If your dandruff is mild and itchy, go with D'Free for better long-term results. For severe scaling, start with Topisal and then switch to D'Free.
