Summary

This study tested whether professional socio-aesthetics (specialized beauty and well-being care) can improve quality of life, reduce pain, and ease anxiety in adults undergoing chemotherapy for lung, breast, colon, or prostate cancer. 400 participants were randomly assigned to receive either socio-aesthetics sessions or self-care with dermo-cosmetic products. The goal was to see if the professional care made a meaningful difference in how patients felt during treatment.
