For the Cancer patients that have been through radiography they are often left with permanent reminders of the treatment through the tattooed scanning "dots" left on their bodies. Although often small and hidden by clothing these are a constant reminder of the pain and suffering they have had to undergo throughout their treatment. Redeem hope to help by offering a service to remove these tattooed "dots" and allow patients to look forward without the permanent reminder of their ordeal.

Recent studies show that at least one third of people that have had tattoos, regret them and wish they could have them removed. This said Redeem recognise that for some this is not just a wish but it is also causing them psychological/emotional suffering and may also be affecting their ability in gaining employment. The vast majority of these instances are due to tattoos that cannot be covered up with clothing, such as tattoos on the face and hands. Redeem want to help by promoting good mental health, by the removal of tattoos which may cause forms of mental distress, as well as aid others in gaining employment.

"Redeem" Eyebrow replacement assistance
Redeem offer Cancer and Alopecia patient's eyebrow replacement at half the price of a normal treatment. In some instances we can assist our clients in gaining full funding from their local Primary Care Trust (PCT) for this treatment to be carried out, meaning it could be completely FREE. This said however, there is a need for anyone looking for full payment by the PCT to have written support through their doctor utilising the NHS "exceptional treatments policy".
