Radiotherapy Tattoos

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.
