Radiation Dermatitis is a side effect of external beam ionizing radiation most commonly used for radiotherapy of various spreading cancers, called malignancies. It is also called radiodermatitis, x-ray dermatitis, radiation skin damage, or a radiation burn.
Protecting the skin while undergoing cancer treatment is extremely important. NeoGenesis skin care products contain the stem cell released molecules that naturally heal the skin, delivering nutrient rich molecules to areas of the skin that are inflamed, sunburned and peeling from the effects of cancer treatments.
NeoGenesis’ most advanced product to restore and strengthen the skin is Recovery. Recovery is the product to use for skin healing and protection anywhere the body is affected from cancer treatments. Recovery serum immediately begins to heal and calm the skin from the symptoms of cancer treatments.
Recovery may be used twice daily on the affected area. For additional hydration and barrier protection, follow Recovery with NeoGenesis Intensive Moisturizer, Barrier Renewal Cream or Body Cream and apply as often as needed to further calm and hydrate the skin, including the nail beds.
The soothing and hydrating Moisturizing Mist may be used throughout the day to combat dryness and discomfort on the skin. It is cooling and soothing.
Gently cleanse the skin with NeoGenesis Cleanser, and then apply Recovery on cleansed skin, twice daily for as long as needed. Recovery is safe for use on all areas of the body, including around the eyes.
