HAIR

Healthy Hair Starts Beneath the Surface.

Scalp Health

The itch that won’t stop. The flakes that return every week. The oiliness or dryness that no shampoo seems to fix. Your scalp is speaking and everything happening to your hair above is a consequence of what’s going wrong below.

RECOGNISE THE SIGNS

Is This You?

If any of these feel familiar, you’re not alone and there is a solution.

01

Persistent dandruff

Despite anti-dandruff shampoos, the flaking returns within days. The problem isn’t the shampoo it’s the scalp.

02

Scalp itching or irritation

A constant urge to scratch that worsens with stress, weather changes, or certain products.

03

Excessive oiliness

Hair feels greasy within hours of washing. Sebum overproduction is often a sign of deeper imbalance.

04

Scalp redness or sensitivity

Tenderness, redness, or a burning sensation signs of inflammation that’s silently damaging follicles.

05

Folliculitis or bumps

Small, painful bumps at the hair root indicate bacterial or fungal infection at the follicle level.

06

Hair fall linked to scalp issues

The connection is direct — an unhealthy scalp cannot sustain healthy growth.

UNDERSTANDING THE ROOT CAUSE

Why Your Scalp Environment Has Broken Down

The scalp has its own microbiome a balance of bacteria, fungi, oil production, and pH. When this ecosystem is disrupted, it manifests as dandruff, inflammation, infection, or seborrhea. Treating the symptom without restoring the ecosystem guarantees recurrence.

01

Fungal Overgrowth (Malassezia)

The most common cause of chronic dandruff and seborrhoeic dermatitis. This yeast thrives on scalp oils and triggers flaking and irritation.

02

pH & Microbiome Disruption

Harsh shampoos, chemical treatments, and over-washing strip the scalp of its natural protective layer, creating vulnerability.

03

Internal Inflammation

Gut inflammation, food sensitivities, and immune imbalance manifest on the scalp as chronic dermatitis, psoriasis, or eczema.

04

Stress-Induced Sebum Dysregulation

Cortisol spikes alter oil production, creating either excessive oiliness or extreme dryness both of which compromise follicle health.

TREATMENT APPROACH

The Usual Approach vs The Vivaann Way

Most treatments manage the surface. Ours corrects the system.

Root-Cause Protocol

YOUR JOURNEY

What Happens When You Visit

A clear, comfortable process from your first consultation to lasting results.

01

step

Scalp Consultation & Trichoscopy

The doctor examines your scalp under magnification to identify fungal activity, inflammation patterns, follicle blockages, and oil gland function. Duration: 30 minutes.

02

step

Internal Assessment

Diet, gut health, stress levels, and immune history are evaluated — because most chronic scalp conditions have an internal co-driver.

03

step

Dual Protocol — Internal + Topical

Homeopathic treatment addresses the systemic cause. Where needed, medical-grade scalp treatments are applied in-clinic to manage the external symptoms simultaneously.

04

step

Scalp Recovery Monitoring

Follow-up trichoscopy at intervals tracks fungal clearance, inflammation reduction, and follicle recovery.

REAL PATIENTS, REAL RESULTS

What Our Patients Say

I had severe dandruff and scalp itching for 3 years. Tried every medicated shampoo. The doctor found it was connected to my gut issues. Within 2 months, the scalp cleared completely.

— Virender Kapoor

My scalp was always oily and I had folliculitis bumps. The homeopathic approach was different — treated from inside. Scalp is normal now for the first time in years.

— Puneet Deshpande

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

Medicated shampoos control fungal activity on the surface but don’t address why the fungus is overgrowing, which is usually an internal immune or digestive issue.

Absolutely. Chronic inflammation, folliculitis, and seborrhoeic dermatitis damage the follicle environment. Treating the scalp often resolves the associated hair fall.

Yes. Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition producing thick, silvery scales. Dandruff is typically fungal. They look similar but require entirely different treatment approaches. The doctor will differentiate during consultation.

Possibly, but the shampoo isn’t the solution it’s one small piece. The doctor may recommend a scalp-appropriate cleanser as part of a broader protocol.

Visible improvement in most cases within 4–6 weeks. Complete resolution of chronic conditions typically takes 3–4 months of consistent internal treatment.
