Read more One of many side effects of radiotherapy are skin changes. They are caused by distortion of skin barrier function. These changes include: rash, skin dryness, hyperpigmentation, inflammations, desquamation of the skin etc. Moreover skin is more prone to infections and allergy and more sensitive to UV radiation. Skin problems can cause: pain, strong discomfort, diminish quality of life and can be reason of therapy termination or its delay. Therefore very important is proper skin care, primarily its moisturizing and lubricating. Proper skin hydration reduces dryness, tension and itching, thereby protects from infection caused by skin scratching. OncoMed gel on skin after radiotherapy contains numerous moisturizing substances like glycerin, arginine and sodium hyaluronate and strongly lubricating oil Omega Plus complex. Additionally contained in the device Syricalm protects from excessive water loss and strengthens skin protective barrier. Thanks to this the skin is more elastic, moistened and less prone to action of external factors, what helps to reduce feeling of tension and itching. Due to proper skin hydration, the appropriate environment is maintained, which favors natural regenerating processes. Moreover contained in the device-prebiotic Biolin-ensures adequate environment for physiological bacterial flora development, what protects from development of pathogenic microorganisms. This prevents oncology patient’s sensitive skin from infection.
