Terrible area of rash on scalp with much scaling and flaking for over a year of increasing in area size using various treaments. Now, two weeks of using fluocinolone oil and lotion, almost entirely gone no itching which keeps my fingers away from area. Diagnosis is psoriasis. Area is slight pink after being red. Hopefully this is the end of problem.

My doctor prescribed this for me due to a scalp condition. I don't use it the way the directions to say as my Dermatologist wanted me not to not rinse this out my hair. I apply it twice A-day not using a lot as to make my hair oily. I have thick coarse long curly hair. I use this in conjuction with another medication and it seems to ve working. The only time I notice anything off is when I forget to use it or go too long without a proper wash.

works somewhat...messy application if for scalp, ruins bed linens and clothing...oil stains do not comeout...and if you have thicker hair, not sure most of product actually gets to scalp.

I had no problems using the oil on my eyebrows or face, it went on easily with a cotton swab and I had no burning or itching. My scalp, on the other hand, I did experience some mild burning at first but that went away within a week. After only 8 days of treatment I went from using it on my whole scalp to spot treating.

Have eczema. Developed a patch looking rash on my face from the friction of my glasses. Used it for only one day & its slowly disappearing on me. Thank god because it was on my face & it looked horrible like I got punched.

Technically if your not washing ur hair at least twice a day it doesn't seem to work all that well. Another thing I have notice from using it is my hair has really brokin off and is somewhat falling out in the areas of treament. Suggestion would be to use T-gel Sampoo along with the medication and then use a really good hair solution with good vitamines or orally take vitamine to help restore hair damage.Read More Read Less
