Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) is one of the most traumatizing experiences for oncological patients. Although CIA is reversible, it still requires several months for the hair to regrow, and cases of permanent CIA are reported. Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy is based on applying (near)-infrared light on target tissue to stimulate cell repair processes. Positive results were demonstrated in clinical trials applying PBM for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia. The aim of this trial is to evaluate if PBM can accelerate hair regrowth after chemotherapy in breast cancer patients.
