Looking Good

How your looks can be affected by breast cancer

We understand how very traumatic breast cancer can be and the effect that this can have on how you look. Surgery can leave you feeling disfigured and unfeminine and losing your hair, eyebrows, eyelashes and pubic hair as a result of chemotherapy can leave you feeling stripped naked. All of these experiences are traumatic to the body, mind and emotions. For some people the impact of breast cancer on how the body looks and feels is the most devastating aspect of the disease.
