The Essential Oil
All-day relief. Hydrated, flake-free, itch-free.
An oil-based scalp serum combining two prescription actives with a proprietary blend of natural oils — for all-day control of itching and flaking, plus continuous hydration for hair and scalp.
A dry, itchy scalp that flakes by the end of the day.
Shampoo washes away. Daily flaking returns. The scalp gets drier, and the itch comes back. You need a treatment that stays on, hydrates, and works around the clock.
Dry, Tight Scalp
Medicated shampoos can leave your scalp feeling stripped and dry. Without continuous hydration, irritation and flaking creep back within hours.
Flaking By Mid-Day
Yeast overgrowth and abnormal skin turnover don’t pause between washes. By afternoon, the flakes are back on your shoulders.
Persistent Hotspots
Certain areas — the hairline, crown, behind the ears — keep flaring up. They need direct, leave-on treatment to settle down for good.
Your scalp needs nourishment — not another stripping wash.
A treatment that nourishes, not just medicates
The Essential Oil pairs two prescription actives with a proprietary blend of natural oils. The oil base keeps your scalp hydrated all day while the actives target the underlying causes of itching and flaking.
All-Day Hydration
The oil base coats and conditions the scalp throughout the day — preventing the dry, tight feeling that often follows medicated shampoos.
Continuous Treatment
Unlike shampoo that rinses away, this oil-based serum stays on — delivering prescription-strength actives continuously between washes.
Dermatologist-Guided
Every prescription is reviewed by a board-certified dermatologist before it ships. This is a clinical treatment, not a hair-care product.
Two actives, in a nourishing oil base
Each ingredient plays a role: one suppresses yeast overgrowth, another normalizes skin turnover, and the proprietary oil blend keeps your scalp hydrated all day.
One oil. Two prescription actives. All-day hydration.
Use it on the whole scalp or apply directly to hotspots — your routine, your call.
All-day relief in under a minute
Use it in place of a regular hair oil. Apply once a day, reapply as needed.
Apply once a day
Use the serum in the morning or evening on any areas of your scalp that commonly develop itching or flaking.
A thin, even coat
Apply enough to provide a thin, even coat throughout the scalp. A little goes a long way.
Reapply as needed
Throughout the day, reapply to the whole scalp or to hotspots to maintain a hydrated, flake-free, itch-free scalp.

What our patients say
Perfect for hot spots
This oil is amazing for targeting those stubborn itchy spots on my scalp. I apply it in the morning and it keeps the itching at bay all day. Love that it's an oil base — keeps my scalp hydrated!
Good product, takes time
The Essential Oil works well but it took about a week to really see results. Now my scalp feels much better and the flaking has reduced significantly. Worth the wait!
