Dr Julie Nangia with Mary Fay
This discussion argues the case for offering scalp cooling to all patients, including those on anthracycline and combination chemotherapy regimens. Success is subjective – hair retention rates that might be seen as a failure by a physician, may be seen as successful by a patient. Increased regrowth with scalp cooling means that the treatment can show long term benefits beyond managing hair loss, which can motivate patients to continue with scalp cooling and help patients move on from treatment faster.
