Hair Scalp
Hair Scalp Treatment in Baner, Pune - Expert Scalp Care at Skinsure Clinic
Looking for hair scalp treatment in Baner, Pune, you are in the right place. A healthy scalp is the foundation of healthy hair. Most people focus on their hair – the length, the shine, the strength – without realising that everything about hair health starts at the scalp level. Dandruff that keeps coming back, an itchy or flaking scalp, oily roots, or hair that sheds more than it should – all of these are scalp problems first, hair problems second.
At Skinsure Clinic on Baner Road, Pune, Dr. Rashmi Soni Lohiya – a dermatologist and trichologist with 23 years of experience – examines, diagnoses and treats the full range of scalp conditions. Patients from Baner, Aundh, Balewadi, Wakad, Hinjewadi and across PCMC visit the clinic for scalp care that actually addresses the root cause – not just the surface symptoms.
Why Scalp Health Matters More Than Most People Think
Think of your scalp the way you think of soil in a garden. If the soil is unhealthy – too dry, too oily, infected or inflamed – the plants growing from it will be weak, thin and prone to falling out. The same logic applies to your hair follicles.
When the scalp is healthy, hair follicles get the blood supply, nutrients and sebum balance they need to produce strong, thick hair. When the scalp is not – when it is inflamed, clogged, too dry or fighting an infection – the follicle suffers first. Hair thinning and excess shedding follow.
Signs your scalp needs professional attention
- White or yellow flakes on your hair and shoulders that keep coming back despite anti-dandruff shampoos
- Itching, burning or tingling on the scalp - especially at night or after washing
- Oily scalp within hours of washing that does not feel clean for long
- Dry, tight or sensitive scalp that feels uncomfortable after shampooing
- Redness, rash or small bumps on the scalp
- Hair that sheds more than 100 strands a day consistently
- Patches of missing hair or bald spots on the scalp
- Scalp that smells even after washing

Dr. Rashmi uses trichoscopy – a magnified examination of the scalp under a dermatoscope – to examine the scalp surface, follicle health and any visible scalp pathology before recommending any treatment. Here are the scalp conditions most commonly treated at the clinic:
Dandruff (Seborrhoeic Dermatitis)
- The most common scalp condition - flaking, itching and sometimes redness
- Caused by an overgrowth of Malassezia yeast on the scalp combined with individual sensitivity
- Treated with prescription antifungal shampoos, topical ketoconazole and medicated scalp serums
- Chronic dandruff needs a maintenance plan - not just a single course of treatment
Dry Scalp and Scalp Dehydration
- Small white flakes, tight sensation after washing, sensitivity to shampoo
- Different from dandruff - caused by insufficient sebum or over-washing with harsh shampoos
- Treated with gentle cleansing protocol, scalp hydration serums and scalp mesotherapy in stubborn cases
Oily Scalp (Seborrhoea)
- Scalp feels greasy within hours of washing, roots appear flat and heavy
- Caused by overactive sebaceous glands - often linked to hormonal factors or stress
- Treated with sebum-regulating topicals, correct shampoo selection and where hormonal factors are involved, appropriate referral
Scalp Psoriasis
- Thick silvery-white plaques on the scalp with redness and significant itching
- An autoimmune skin condition - requires specific prescription treatment beyond anti-dandruff shampoos
- Treated with medicated coal tar, salicylic acid, topical corticosteroids and, in severe cases, systemic medication
Itchy Scalp (Pruritus Capitis)
- Scalp itching without visible flaking - can be caused by contact allergy to hair products, scalp dryness, stress or early seborrhoeic dermatitis
- Requires identification of the trigger before treatment - patch testing may be needed for suspected contact allergy
- Treated based on the identified cause: antihistamines, topical steroids, product change or antifungals

Frequently Asked Questions - Hair Scalp Treatment in Baner, Pune
Hair scalp treatment covers any clinical treatment for scalp conditions - dandruff, seborrhoeic dermatitis, dry scalp, oily scalp, scalp psoriasis, folliculitis, itchy scalp and secondary hair loss from scalp inflammation. You need professional scalp treatment when over-the-counter anti-dandruff shampoos and home remedies are not giving lasting results, when your scalp is itchy or inflamed regularly, when you notice increased hair shedding alongside a scalp problem or when you have visible redness, bumps or patchy scaling on the scalp. At Skinsure Clinic in Baner, Pune, Dr. Rashmi Soni Lohiya diagnoses the specific scalp condition using trichoscopy and prescribes the correct treatment at the first consultation.
Dandruff and dry scalp both cause flaking but have different causes and need different treatments. Dandruff is caused by an overgrowth of Malassezia yeast on the scalp and is usually associated with an oily scalp, larger oily flakes and sometimes redness. It is treated with antifungal shampoos. Dry scalp causes small, fine white flakes and a tight, sensitive feeling on the scalp - it is a hydration problem, not a yeast problem. Using an antifungal shampoo for dry scalp can make it worse. This is why a proper diagnosis matters. Dr. Rashmi identifies the correct type at the consultation before recommending any product.
Yes - scalp inflammation is one of the most underdiagnosed causes of secondary hair loss. Chronic dandruff, seborrhoeic dermatitis, scalp psoriasis and folliculitis all create an inflammatory environment around the hair follicle. This chronic inflammation weakens the follicle base and can push hairs into the resting (telogen) phase prematurely, causing increased shedding. The good news: once the scalp condition is treated and the inflammation is resolved, most of this secondary hair loss reverses over 3 to 6 months. At Skinsure Clinic in Baner, scalp treatment and hair loss treatment are managed together where both are present.
Most scalp conditions begin showing improvement within 2 to 4 weeks of starting prescription treatment. Dandruff and seborrhoeic dermatitis typically clear well within 4 to 8 weeks of the correct antifungal protocol. Scalp mesotherapy for chronic or recurring scalp conditions involves 4 to 6 sessions spaced 2 to 3 weeks apart. Scalp psoriasis requires a longer management plan. Dr. Rashmi reviews progress at each visit and adjusts the treatment as needed - most patients see significant improvement within the first month.
