Chemotherapy Side Effects

Chemotherapy Burns. After Cancer Treatment Skincare - NeoGenesis Recovery, Moisturizing Mist and Intensive Moisturizer Erythema, reddening of the skin, manifests as painful redness of the skin, including the palms and soles, with or without large blisters (bullae). These symptoms can be preceded by dysaesthesia (altered sensation of the skin). The pain from this rash may be so severe that daily activities are limited.

Chemotherapy damages rapidly dividing cells, the key trait of cancer cells. In the process of chemotherapy, healthy cells that are also rapidly dividing, such as skin cells, are also damaged. Because the chemical is widespread throughout the body, the damage to the skin may also be widespread. In contrast, radiation therapy damages only those skin cells that are in the path of the radiation beam.

Solution

Supportive care for chemotherapy burns may include an analgesic (pain relief) and cold compress. Consult with your health care provider for the best course of action.

Recovery by NeoGenesis is recommended after chemotherapy to help restore homeostasis in the skin and in the nail beds. Intensive Moisturizer should also be used to help restore the skin’s own moisturizers. Simple topical application of these products should help mitigate redness, irritation, and pain. And application to the cuticle and skin surrounding your nails may help to alleviate unsightly changes in the appearance of your nails. Intensive Moisturizer is also recommended to maintain the normal, moist environment of the skin and to help restore barrier function.

Reviews

“Love it. I’m going through Chemotherapy and my skin is very dry, or I should say WAS drying out. This moisturizer has my skin soft and supple again.” ~ AS – Art of Skin Care

Products: Intensive Moisturizer

“My father is treated with Xeloda for recurrent colon cancer. He suffered from cracks and bruises on his hands, fingers, and feet after chemotherapy. When I ordered ‘NeoGenesis Recovery’ for the first time, I didn’t expect too much. Recovery is amazing. It helped to fix his different wounds. I am now ordering from you regularly. I don’t know how many people have the same problem after chemotherapy with Xeloda (which is the regular treatment for colon and breast cancer), but Recovery can be a huge help with cuts, bruising, swelling of joints, etc.” ~ EA

Condition Treated: Sores and rash on her legs (side effect of her chemo for Breast Cancer)

Patient Feedback:

“I had a severe skin reaction from two powerful chemotherapy drugs (Adriamycin / Cytoxin) that were administered every other day for four weeks. The worst reaction was on my legs which had raised red areas and many of these were blisters. We had tried Calendula Oil by Bodyceuticals. The rash would subside and then come back worse than before.

Tracy introduced me to NeoGenesis Recovery serum. I applied it twice a day to the affected areas. In one week, I had a huge improvement. The redness faded, the raised areas diminished, the blisters went away, and the itching stopped. Recovery serum is a miracle product. I highly recommend it to anyone with skin issues from chemo.” ~ CP

“All I can say to you is that I could not be happier with how things worked out. It is like a miracle as far as I am concerned. Unbelievable. I now look like a normal person, even without makeup on. Also the most important thing, no pain, which diminished pretty quickly when I started your products. I am thrilled with that and would recommend your products to anyone. In fact, when I go into my doctor for my 3-month check-up I will bring some information on it with me because they should be promoting it in their office if they are going to be doing those kinds of procedures and others. They do other types of surgeries there too.” ~ ES

Condition: Chemotherapy Side Effects

“This patient was on topical chemo for 30 days and told to only use OTC Vaseline. Her face was bleeding. She was in significant pain and the itching was driving her absolutely insane (photo on the left). We did two applications of Recovery over the next 24 hours. The progress can be seen in the photo on the right. She stated her pain and itchiness levels dropped substantially in 24 hours.” ~ T.L.
