Whatever happens internally within our bodies will always reflect through the condition of our skin. When a cancer diagnosis is given, it’s a good idea to start strengthening and preparing the skin for the medical treatments that may lie ahead. Well-prepared skin will be less likely to react as a result of treatment, and it will also recover and heal faster. Once medical treatment has begun, esthetic treatments can help reduce the side-effects of inflammation, redness, irritation and dryness. In recovery, it’s important to restore the barrier, structure, function, and immunity of the skin to in order to promote the growth of new baby skin cells and rebuild healthy skin.
