I've been dealing with this white flake issue on my scalp and after consulting a doctor, he recommended using Noskurf overnight lotion and Diprovate Plus lotion after my bath on dry hair. I'm curious to know if these lotions are only effective for the flakes or will they also help with hair loss? I'm a bit worried and just want to make sure I'm on the right track here.
