The old adage that when you look better you feel better, is particularly
important for women who are battling any type of cancer.
Looking normal while undergoing cancer treatment is one of the many
problems facing cancer patients today. While current state-of-the
art cancer therapies are permitting many women to return to work,
family activities or normal routines during, or shortly after treatment
- one of the biggest challenges women face is maintaining their
appearance and dignity throughout the process.
Chemotherapy in particular, makes skin look dull, dry and sallow.
While a heavy-duty moisturizer and a good moisturizing foundation
can improve the overall appearance of the skin, many women also
have to contend with the loss of hair on their heads, their eyebrows
and their eyelashes. The loss of hair, while not always permanent,
can also lead to a loss of self-esteem. These cosmetic changes can
make women feel less whole - less attractive - less intact.
Additionally, most women have to contend with feeling tired and
lethargic as a side effect of cancer treatments. They don't want
to struggle with applying make up - or trying to draw-in missing
eyebrows. One solution that can help to alleviate these annoying
cosmetic problems - is Permanent Make up. Imagine never having to
worry about missing or uneven brows - skimpy lashes or pale washed-out
lips. Permanent Cosmetics can immediately add vitality and definition
to the face - "and it never smudges, smears or wipes off."
One of the most popular cosmetic procedures is the application of
permanent eyebrows. The permanent make up artist - enhances or completely
rebuilds the client's brows, by creating a "cosmetic brow".
The cosmetic brow is applied using several tones of color designed
to mimic natural brow hair. Placing micro-insertions of pigment
just millimeters under the surface of the skin - similar to a tattoo,
creates a 3-dimensional effect. The brow procedure is performed
after numbing the brow area, and takes about 30-minutes to complete.
Client's leave looking and feeling great, with brows that are perfectly
applied - and require no further cosmetic enhancement.
Permanent Cosmetics can also help women feel better by "visually
replacing" lost eyelashes and scalp hair - as well as re-pigmenting
areolas - or camouflaging scars, after unilateral or bilateral mastectomies.
