Confidentiality & Private Rooms
We cater to those undergoing cancer treatment and are very sensitive to confidentiality and have private rooms. We specialize in treating both men and women that are experiencing some of the side effects such as hair loss after being diagnosed. Luckily, many cancers are treatable with favorable long term results, while some are even curable.

As you know, the loss of hair has a tremendous psychological impact when one looks in the mirror. Aside from improving your appearance, hair replacement results in a more positive attitude of yourself and your loved ones. Many studies have shown this positive attitude translates into a more favorable prognosis.
