OSF Healthcare now offering scalp cooling for cancer patients

PEORIA, Ill. (WMBD) — A new service being offered at OSF Healthcare is helping patients going through chemotherapy. It's called scalp cooling, and it's a first-of-its-kind service being offered in our area. It's a non-invasive, free treatment designed to reduce hair loss during chemotherapy. It works by lowering the temperature of your scalp down to 65 degrees before, during and after chemo. Scalp cooling helps cancer patients keep as much of their hair as possible, which in turn, helps their mental health. Our 2025 Remarkable Women winner, Patricia Cutiletta, had a huge part in bringing this service to our area. 'Well, it has nothing to do with vanity,' Cutiletta said. 'I had an oncologist who said to me, oh, that's for vain people. It's not. It's for people who want to preserve some sense of identity. It's for people who want to continue as much of their normal lifestyle as they can. And it's for people who want something that they can try and control.' The scalp cooling service is part of OSF Healthcare's START program. Which stands for survive, thrive and recover together. There's more than just scalp cooling. Patients can also get personalized care to help navigate their 'new normal' with confidence. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
