Brief summary

This study evaluates changes in skin quality and self-esteem among breast cancer patients who are initiating aromatase inhibitor therapy.

Detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the incidence and severity of skin quality changes after initiation of Aromatase Inhibitor (AI) therapy in breast cancer (BC) survivors through use of Canfield Sciences VISIA-CA technology and facial skin assessment photography. II. Evaluate impact of AI therapy on patient-reported self-esteem and dermatology related life quality through validated patient reported outcome measures. III. Assess for objective improvements in skin quality measurements with VISIA-CA after skincare intervention with aesthetician consultation. IV. Measure changes in patient-reported self-esteem and dermatology related life quality following skincare intervention. OUTLINE: This is an observational study. Patients complete surveys/questionnaires, undergo skin measurement with the VISIA CA device, undergo facial skin photography, and attend consultations with an aesthetician on study.
