Appearance Care Wig and Compensating Underwear Consultation Information
Appearance care is defined as “care that uses medical, cosmetic, and psychosocial support to complement changes in appearance and alleviate pain caused by changes in appearance in cancer patients.”
Most cancer treatments are outpatient treatments, and we have entered an era in which people live at home, at work, or in the community while continuing treatment for a long time.Depending on the treatment, there may be changes in appearance, such as hair loss, rough skin, and easy peeling of nails.We listen to the patient's wishes so that they can live a lively life in their own place even while undergoing treatment, and we work together with them to come up with various ideas to support their lives.
At our hospital, we hold exhibitions of care caps made by volunteers and consultations on wigs and shaping underwear.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any concerns, such as changes in your appearance that make you feel depressed, or concerns about how other people see you.
