Cooler Heads

About This Service

We understand that a cancer diagnosis and treatment can bring emotional and physical challenges. To help support patients throughout their journey, The Center is proud to offer the FDA-cleared Amma Scalp Cooling System, a user-friendly alternative to traditional cold caps.

Through Cooler Heads, patients have access to scalp cooling technology designed to help reduce hair loss associated with certain chemotherapy treatments. This service is now available at our Fort Worth – Central Campus, with plans to expand to additional locations in the future.

Why scalp cool?

Amma is the first FDA-cleared, portable scalp cooling medical device to reduce chemotherapy-induced hair loss for adults over the age of 21 with sold tumors.

Amma cools the scalp before, during, and after chemotherapy, helping reduce the amount of chemotherapy that reaches the hair follicles. 

Amma is portable and compact which allows patients to get up and move around throughout the infusion center during treatment. Additionally, the wrap is custom-fitted once and can be used throughout your treatment sessions.

While some thinning is expected during chemotherapy, successful scalp cooling can significantly reduce hair loss. Scalp cooling also supports faster hair regrowth after treatment is over.
