Lets have a chat about Radiotherapy and
tattoos…… These are little markings that
are made at the beginning of cancer treatment to guide the technician.
Although these are very small, some people
are very bothered by them. After cancer
treatment, people want to get back to being the person they were before the
treatment. They want their hair to grow
back and just want to look and feel the way they did before the treatment
began.
This process may involve treatment on their
new hair as well mastectomy bra fittings by a professional. Prosthetic breast forms should also be fitted
by a highly qualified professional. Breast
forms are made from specialized materials and can look and feel comfortable and
natural.
Choose a retailer that is familiar with
fitting mastectomy bras and takes time to make sure that the fit is
perfect. Fitting you properly involves measurement
and a lot of times it can be trial and error.
You should expect spend an hour with your fitter, more if you require
breast forms fitted. You should never
feel that you’re being rushed.
Radiotherapy tattoos are very easy to
remove. Often only one laser treatment
is needed and the results are instant!!!!!
There is very little risk of complications and it can make a huge
difference to the person in recovery. Some
skin clinics offer free laser tattoo removal for those that have Radiotherapy
Tattoos. Find out if any of the clinics
in your area offer this free service.
There are also ways to support the re
growth of hair in recovery. Nioxin is a
very good range that assists with hair growth and texture. It is also remarkably reasonable in price. This product should be used after
chemotherapy is finished in order to give the scalp the best possible condition
to promote re growth.
No one can take the devastation that Cancer
leaves behind but there are a lot of companies that can help you make it more
bearable.
