New moisturizer shows promise for dandruff relief in small study

This study tested a scalp moisturizer made with celastrol and chicory root extract in 23 adults with dry, flaky scalp or dandruff. Participants applied it every night for 4 weeks. Researchers used artificial intelligence to measure changes in scalp condition. The goal was to see if the moisturizer could reduce redness, dryness, and flaking.
