Scalp Care Treatment - Well Being Care Kit
It is important to keep your scalp healthy & helping the hair re-growth process
Anyone undergoing treatment can benefit from this product.
Térapo Médik scalp products are designed to minimize the negative effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy while promoting the growth of new hair.
It is best to begin using this kit on the day of your first chemotherapy treatment. Alternate between the two different shampoos daily to ensure that your hair follicles remain active and do not go dormant.
Chemotherapy or radiotherapy can reduce the activity of sebaceous glands and papillae, leading to dry skin and scalp. Stimulating the sebaceous glands is essential to prevent hair follicle shrinkage.
With the Térapo Médik line, you can moisturize your scalp throughout the therapy period using gentle, natural products designed specifically for your condition.
The kit includes 2 shampoos (250 ml) and 2 lotions (90 ml).
It is a #1 product because it focuses on scalp health rather than just hair.
Clients using the chemo kit have reported fewer issues with red bumps and scalp irritation. The hair grows back quicker and individual hairs becoming stronger and thicker.
It is specially formulated for sensitive scalps due to chemotherapy and cranial radiation therapy.
The Kit Includes:
Vitascalp Shampoo (250ml)
Hydrascalp Shampoo (250ml)
Vitascalp Lotion (90ml)
Hydrascalp Lotions (90ml)
