Breast cancer is a serious and life-threatening disease that affects millions of women around the world. Fortunately, with advancements in medicine and technology, breast cancer can be treated effectively. However, like any other treatment, there are side effects associated with radiation therapy for breast cancer.

Radiation therapy is commonly used to eliminate or shrink tumors in the breast by targeting high-energy beams at the affected area. While it can be highly effective in destroying cancer cells, it can also cause discomfort and side effects.

One of the most common side effects of radiation therapy is skin irritation. The high-energy beams can damage the skin cells, causing redness, peeling, and tenderness in the breast area. In some cases, blisters or sores may also develop. This side effect can be managed with proper skincare and ointments recommended by the doctor.

Healing and preventing infection during and after cancer treatment is a must. NeoGenesis products contain the S²RM® molecules that naturally support the skin, delivering nutrient rich molecules to areas inflamed, sunburned and peeling from the effects of radiation treatments. By giving the skin the nutrients it needs, the patient receives a greater level of comfort and support from extreme dryness, persistent itch, rash, hyperpigmentation and photosensitivity.
