Solutions: Managing "Chemo Rash" on the back, shoulders or chest

Overview

For more detail, visit www.LindiSkin.com/egfr-face-rash

Chemo Rash, which is sometimes also called EGFR Rash, is a common skin-related side effect of certain chemotherapy medications.  Although it often appears first on the face, the rash can also appear on broad areas of the back, shoulders and chest.   

​

The rash is typically characterized by mild scaling, acne-like bumps or pimples, roughness, a feeling of tightness, and possibly itching and burning on the skin.   Chemo rash is usually preceded by redness of the skin or a warm sensation on the face that may feel like sunburn and the rash may range in color from light pink to bright red.

Suggested Care:

First and foremost, follow your doctor’s instructions. Taking your medication at the right time of day and in the prescribed dosage is important to your well-being and your recovery. 

​

Chemo rash tends to feel better with intense hydration. This helps relieve the redness, irritation, and dryness that’s affecting the skin. The affected area should never be treated with drying agents designed to fight acne and you should avoid harsh, drying soaps - especially anti-bacterial soaps.  

Suggested Products: 

Although the product is called "Face" Serum, it can be used anywhere on the body and is equally effective for rash on the neck, back, shoulders or chest.  The Serum was created specifically to address Chemo Rash and has been clinically proven to reduce the facial rash, redness and itching caused by some types of chemotherapy.  Formulated with the highest concentration of our proprietary LSA Complex ®, replete with botanicals, antioxidants and vitamins, this serum provides beneficial moisture and ultimate comfort to compromised skin . The unique non-oily formula glides on silky-smooth and begins restoring immediately.

While the  Face Serum absorbs quickly and addresses the redness and rash, Lindi Skin's Body Lotion is a rich, smooth moisturizer that can be applied after the Serum as a protective layer. 

 

This skin-quenching lotion delivers a combination of antioxidants and hydrating ingredients that nourish the skin while reinforcing its natural barrier to prevent moisture loss. Light, refreshing and luxurious, Lindi Body Lotion is superb for all-over, everyday use. Best applied to wet or damp skin, right out of the shower.

These three products together form an effective daily regimen for managing chemo rash on the neck, shoulders, chest or back.  Start your regimen by replacing all other soaps with the gentle Lindi Skin Body Wash.  It actually moisturizes while it cleans and does not strip your skin of its natural oils.  Next, apply Lindi Skin's Face Serum to the rash.   A little goes a long way!  Finally, apply a generous amount of Lindi Skin's Body Lotion for additional moisture and for a protective layer. 

​

Medical Professionals and Lindi Skin customers rave about the results from these products.

“Patients who have come in crying about the rash have called us the next day to thank us for the Lindi Skin.  The Lindi product alleviates or lessens the itch and, most importantly, decreases the erythema of the acne like rash"
