[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So dandruff causes pimples? Are you saying that the dandruff in this kid could cause pimples vs. hormonal changes?

Is this also true in adults? [/quote]

Yes, it is true for every body.  Dandruff can cause acne by clogging pores   (and sometimes hormonal changes can also lead to an increase in dandruff - which then leads to acne).

Even if the acne happens during teen years,  you should follow the suggestions above to control dandruff to prevent acne on forehead, cheeks, chest, back (and sometimes butt).

I gave a very effective, cheap and gentle remedy for dandruff (massaging scalp with lemon juice and coconut oil mixture, letting it sit for few hours (or overnight) and shampooing afterwards),  because the affected person was a child.  However, you can also use prescription strength anti-dandruff shampoo on teens and adults if they do not want to go this route.

(The oil treatment is extremely effective also on elderly and bedridden patients.)

Google the connection between dandruff and acne.
