Eczema on forehead

Hello,
Does this look like seborrheic dermatitis on my forehead?

Any thoughts on what the best creams, lotions, ointments, or medications would be for it?

Appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

  1. Thanks. I've been using Eucerin Advanced repair lotion and it works pretty well. I'd like to find a good moisturizer that has spf in it though.

    1. glad you found something that is working! I honestly don't know any good ones with SPF myself, so maybe someone else will chime in with some advice. You may get better responses making a new forum topic on it though! -Nina (AtopicDermatitis.net Team Member)

  2. I agree with - it's hard to say. Have you seen a doctor or dermatologist? -Nina (AtopicDermatitis.net Team Member)

    1. Hi @michael7 - It's hard to say. It could be but from your photograph, it looks like a little patch of dry skin. A good moisturizer may help you. Do you use anything to treat your skin? I use Epaderm. It's quite a thick ointment but it works for me. You might have to buy two or three different types of moisturizer to find which suits you most. Cetraban or Dermol is another two you could try. All can be got over the counter. I hope this was helpful:/
