I Look Normal, Eventho I Ignored Skin Cancer for 2 Years - Spokane, WA

I left a cancer spot on my cheek untreated for 2 years. The cancer was growing and my cheak was turning white. The skin above the the cancer looked like scars.

Dr W had to remove most of my left cheek.  Within, a few months, no one could tell I had ever had the surgery, and all of the cancer was gone.  I wish you could see the pictures!!

Great review?
