BIAB (Builder in a Bottle) is a type of thick gel that is painted onto your natural nails to make them stronger, thicker, and less likely to break.
It may be possible for you to have BIAB but it's best to check with your cancer team first, especially if you're having treatment as some cancer treatments can make nails fragile, increase the risk of infection, or cause nail separation from the nail bed. These nail changes are known side effects of some chemotherapy drugs and some targeted therapies.
I hope this is of some use. Give us a ring if you would like to talk anything over. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.
