Image Enhancement for Cervical Cancer

No matter what type of cervical cancer treatment you and your care team at Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) decide is right for you, our goal is to help mitigate the side effects of conventional treatments (e.g., chemotherapy, radiation, surgery).

One way we work to help our patients cope with potential side effects of cervical cancer treatment is through our Image Enhancement Program. We understand that hair loss and other changes in your skin and body you may experience can be extremely difficult to cope with, which is why we offer a Cosmetic Image Enhancement Program. Furthermore, we offer plastic and reconstructive surgery.

Cosmetic image enhancement

Cervical cancer treatments that involve chemotherapy and radiation can often cause hair loss and other cosmetic changes. The CTCA Cosmetic Image Enhancement Program is designed to empower women to effectively deal with body image issues and take pride in, and make the most of, their appearance. Our care team will help you to prepare for your cervical cancer treatment, and to understand and anticipate changes as they occur. You’ll have direct access to our expert staff of beauticians, cosmetologists and salon personnel. In addition, you’ll be able to take advantage of classes and seminars open to you and your loved ones.

Plastic and reconstructive surgical procedures

Prior to cancer surgery, you may also elect to have our surgical oncologists consult with you and a team of plastic and reconstructive surgeons. For many types of cancer, the plastic surgeons can integrate restorative procedures to be performed during or immediately following cancer surgery.
