Now, keeping your hair during chemo is your choice.
Imagine being able to keep your hair while undergoing chemotherapy. Scalp cryotherapy, also known as scalp cooling, is a technique that uses cold to protect the hair during cancer treatment. At CrioBella, we have developed a special cold gel cap that is placed on the scalp before, during, and after chemotherapy. By cooling the scalp, blood flow to the hair follicles is reduced, limiting the amount of chemotherapy that reaches these cells responsible for hair growth. This process helps preserve the hair follicles, minimizing one of the most visible and emotionally challenging side effects of chemotherapy: hair loss.
With the use of scalp cooling, you can preserve up to 70% of your hair, although results may vary depending on the type and dosage of chemotherapy. Most patients experience a significant reduction in hair loss, allowing them to maintain their appearance and strengthen their self-esteem during this process. By reducing hair loss, this technique helps people face their treatment with a greater sense of normalcy and control over their image.
The first documented trials on the use of cooling caps to prevent hair loss during chemotherapy date back to the 1970s. Researchers began exploring this technique to mitigate one of the most visible and emotionally impactful side effects of chemotherapy. Since then, technology and methods have advanced significantly, leading to more effective and comfortable developments for patients undergoing cancer treatment.
Sometimes, great stories begin without making a sound. A conversation, an idea, and suddenly we were creating something that today helps many people face chemotherapy without losing themselves. Want to know how this puzzle came together?
Explore our library of scientific studies, where you will find up-to-date, validated research on the efficacy and safety of scalp cooling during chemotherapy. Discover evidence supporting this method, its evolution, and how it can help reduce hair loss for those undergoing cancer treatments.
By cooling the scalp, we ensure that the hair follicle absorbs fewer drugs during chemotherapy. This method helps prevent hair loss, which is one of the most concerning side effects for patients undergoing cancer treatment.
The reduction in drug absorption by the hair follicle helps maintain the integrity of the hair, improving the quality of life and emotional well-being of patients.
