Hair Loss • Cancer • Chemotherapy • Radiation Therapy • Alopecia



Any of these words can create a sense of fear and anxiety. Patients are understandably uneasy about the treatment and possible side effects, particularly hair loss. It's only natural. This is not an everyday occurrence for you. You may not be prepared, but given the facts and the opportunity to study them, you will feel less fearful. You can begin to feel better abou,t the treatment, and you'll cooperate better because you understand what is happening and more importantly why it is happening. Our hope here is to give you some of the facts in non-medical language about the relationship between chemotherapy, radiation therapy, alopecia and hair loss. Cancer Drug Effects

Since cancer is a condition of uncontrolled cell growth, anticancer drug administration (such as chemotherapy) aims at reducing, or stopping, this abnormal growth. Anti-cancer drugs act on both normal cells and cancerous cells. Various drugs are used in chemotherapy treatment. The amount of hair loss depends upon the type and dosage prescribed. Not all chemotherapy drugs cause hair loss. Best of all, in all but rare instances, hair loss is temporary! All cells are more receptive to the action of drugs during active cell reproduction. Cells which reproduce most rapidly are those most likely to be destroyed. Some normal cells – such as hair follicles- also divide rapidly, which is why they are also affected by chemotherapy. At any one time, about 85% of the hair follicles are

reproducing. This is when the hair gets longer. For this
reason chemotherapy drugs whose chief purpose is to
attack and destroy the rapidly reproducing cancer cells
may have the same effect on your active hair cells. When chemotherapy is completed, you can expect
that the hair follicles will resume their task
of processing amino acids from your blood
and building new hair again. Radiation Therapy's Effects

Radiation therapy is the use of high energy rays to stop cancer cells from growing within its reach- cancerous and normal- to grow and reproduce. However, cancer cells are more sensitive to radiation than normal cells. If radiation is given just as the cancer cell is about to reproduce- to divide into two cells- the radiation will prevent the cell from dividing and it will die. Radiation is a strong treatment for cancer and can sometimes affect normal tissue, causing side effects. With radiation treatment to the head and neck area, one possible side effect may be hair loss. We suggests scheduling a free consultation as early as possible so that we can properly match your hair color and style before any hair loss. It would be best if you do not cut your hair before the consultation. Not altering your hair makes to an easier transition from your existing style into a hair piece. But don’t worry, if you’ve already experienced hair loss or cut your hair, together we will work with you to pick the best style and color for your look and lifestyle
