October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a reminder of the challenges faced by countless warriors. Beyond the battles of diagnosis and treatment, survivors often grapple with physical changes and scars that are lasting reminders of their journey. Nevertheless, med spa treatments shine a beacon of hope; now equipped with progressive therapies for breast cancer survivors, aiding in restoring not only their physical appearance but also their self-esteem.
Here are some of the transformative treatments and how they are making a difference:
Lymphatic Drainage Massage: After breast cancer treatment, patients might experience lymphedema, a condition characterized by swelling due to a blockage in the lymphatic system. Lymphatic drainage massage is designed to encourage the movement of lymph fluids around the body to help reduce swelling and improve health. This can be added on to facial treatments, such as the HydraFacial.
Scar Treatment: Treatments like microneedling, laser therapy, or specialized chemical peels might be used to help reduce the appearance of scars left by surgeries or radiation treatments.
Skin Care Treatments: Breast cancer treatments can be tough on the skin. Facials, hydrating treatments, and other skincare therapies might be beneficial in restoring the skin’s health and vitality. Alastin ReFORM & RePAIR COMPLEX also works well to assist with post-surgery recovery.
Body Contouring: Breast cancer treatment can lead to significant changes in a person’s body. For survivors who have gone through mastectomies and reconstructive surgeries, body contouring treatments might help improve satisfaction with physical appearance and body image. Body Contouring treatments such as Coolsculpting can:
- Restore Body Shape + Symmetry
- Enhance Results of Reconstructive Surgery
- Address Treatment Side Effects, such as weight gain or loss
- Improve Body Image + Overall Quality of Life
Skin Tightening Treatments: Breast cancer treatments, like surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, can take a toll on the skin and body, leading to changes in skin elasticity and firmness. This is where skin tightening treatments, such as Opus Fractional Plasma can be beneficial.
- Improvement in skin’s appearance
- Boost self-confidence
- Can assist with scar reduction
In the vast spectrum of recovery, there’s a silent story that often goes unheard – the story of reclaiming oneself after surviving breast cancer. MedSpa treatments stand as testament to the leaps of medical innovation, offering holistic solutions to challenges that were once deemed insurmountable. From alleviating the distress of lymphedema to revitalizing the skin, these treatments underscore the importance of self-care in the healing journey. As we commemorate Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let’s champion these remedies, reminding survivors that their journey to self-reclamation is both valid and supported.
