Paxman Scalp Cooling The global leader in scalp cooling. We help cancer patients worldwide to retain their hair during chemotherapy

When Sue Paxman lost her hair while receiving chemotherapy for breast cancer, her family shared her distress. Sue's husband, Glenn Paxman founded Paxman on the back of this experience and to this day we remain a close family business. Knowing first-hand the effects that both cancer and its treatment can have on patients, friends and families, our business is much more than just a job. We aim to make a difference to people’s lives by raising awareness about scalp cooling and establishing it as a common practice for all patients undergoing treatment. As the leading global manufacturer and supplier of scalp cooling equipment, we work in partnership with medical professionals, research centres, cancer support groups, charities and patients to continually improve our technology. Investing in scientific testing and development has allowed us to attain outstanding technical precision and the highest levels of clinical efficacy. We strive to gain further knowledge and understanding of hair loss prevention for cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. We are committed to giving patients a degree of control during chemotherapy treatment. We have made it our responsibility to offer advice, support and access to scalp cooling for cancer patients no matter where they are based in the world. Having been through the same journey as many patients and their families, we are dedicated to empowering people by giving them the choice to keep their hair.

reminds us that cancer treatment is about more than clinical outcomes.

The physical side effects of treatment can have a real impact on confidence and sense of identity. Supporting patients means recognising the emotional and mental challenges that can accompany cancer treatment, alongside the physical ones.

Today, and every day, we're committed to supporting those going through chemotherapy and scalp cooling.

If you're looking for support, consider joining our Facebook community, where more than 15,000 people share experiences, advice and encouragement with others navigating their own similar journey. 🫶

Waiting for hair regrowth can be one of the most challenging parts of the journey. 💙

The good news is that many patients begin to see new growth within 12-16 weeks of completing chemotherapy, with some noticing regrowth even sooner.

In this week's Haircare FAQ, we're answering one of the questions we hear most often.

🗣️ "It wasn't about vanity. It was about identity. It was about looking in the mirror and still seeing me."

When Crista was diagnosed with breast cancer, she knew cancer would change many parts of her life. But through scalp cooling, she was able to hold on to something deeply personal. Her sense of self.

"Cancer takes so much from you, physically and emotionally. It can strip away the things that make you feel like yourself, the things that make you feel feminine and recognizable in your own skin. For me, being able to keep my hair was one way of holding onto that."

Thank you, Crista, for sharing your story with our community. 🫶

From the patient impact of CIPN and current clinical practice to emerging cryocompression technologies and the latest Phase 2 clinical data, this expert panel will offer valuable perspectives on one of the most significant unmet needs in cancer care.

California joins New York, Louisiana, Maryland, West Virginia and Connecticut in enacting scalp cooling coverage legislation, as momentum continues to build in additional states 👏

Governor Gavin Newsom has signed AB 1682 into law, establishing insurance coverage requirements for FDA-cleared scalp cooling and expanding access through both large-group commercial insurance and Medi-Cal.

As the largest state to enact scalp cooling coverage legislation to date, California's decision marks meaningful progress in expanding access to nearly 40 million people!

By helping address financial barriers to treatment, this legislation will enable more patients to access scalp cooling as part of their chemotherapy treatment.

Thank you to the clinicians, advocates, legislators and patient voices who helped make this possible.

This legislation is effective January 1, 2027
