Helping you get the best
Reconval for cancer
- Your skin can often become red and sore as a result of your anti-cancer therapy
- Some targeted cancer treatments (anti-EGFR-therapy) frequently induce severe acne-like skin changes whereas certain chemotherapies cause painful peeling of the skin on the palms and feet (Hand-Foot Syndrome) and rashes.
- Importantly, skin changes could mean your doctor needs to reduce the required dosage of the anti-cancer treatment.
- Regular prophylactic skin care using Reconval creams can help to prevent and ease these associated skin problems when already present
