Home Remedies:

The following steps are remedies that one can follow at home for mild acne on scalp. However, we recommend consulting a doctor if your case falls under severe category.

The scalp should be cleaned by a product, which contains salicylic acid and should be applied only using a cotton ball or wool. This product can cause excessive dryness so it should be applied on the affected areas.

Oily hair is one of the factors of scalp acne, so oily using a mild shampoo should clean hair. Complete and continued cleanliness of the hair and the skin is necessary to fully eliminate serious pimples on the scalp.
