Beauty Rx: Surviving Skin, Hair & Nail Woes During Treatment
Let’s be real—cancer treatment can wreak havoc on your skin, hair, and nails.
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Mamina Turegano, a triple board-certified dermatologist (and all-around gem of a human), to talk about how to care for your body’s largest organ and its extensions while you’re going through treatment. We cover everything from managing dry, itchy skin to preventing nail damage to navigating hair loss—plus which products are safe and effective when your body is extra sensitive.
Whether you’re newly diagnosed or deep in the treatment trenches, this episode is packed with real talk, science-backed tips, and some much-needed TLC.
