Oncology Skin Care Treatments in hospitals and at patients’ associations
Learn about and treat the needs of your skin during this period of your life
We all know the potential side effects of oncological treatment on one’s skin and overall physical appearance. In the majority of cases, these are temporary effects with no real clinical importance. While they may seem unimportant in relation to the illness itself, evidence suggests there is a link between improved mood and improved physical appearance; this type of treatment can help restore a sense of balance. Patients are also better able to cope and comply with their medical treatments.
Our hope is that those affected by such side effects can look better so that they can feel better. When you are at ease with your physical appearance, you feel stronger. There is no reason why you should lose this feeling during an illness.

SELFCARE GUIDELINES
In oncological treatments, skin may undergo changes (dryness, rashes, blemishes, irritation) that are often temporary.
That is why we want to offer basic guidance and share several simple methods to help minimize these potential effects. Once you know about the effects, they can easily be prevented. We also provide information on the cosmetic ingredients that will help you take the best possible care of your skin during this period. Download our self-care guidelines here >>Download here
