Summary

This study tested whether aesthetic therapy sessions (like skincare or makeup) could reduce anxiety and improve quality of life for patients with acute leukemia or those who had a stem cell transplant. These patients are isolated in a protected hospital area for at least 28 days. Researchers compared patients who received three aesthetic therapy sessions with those who did not, using questionnaires to measure anxiety and well-being.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
aesthetic therapy sessions
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that aesthetic therapy helps reduce anxiety and improve well-being for hospitalized blood disease patients.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 70 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The effect on anxiety was not measurable in prior sessions.
