Asked By:barbara7280 in San Francisco, CA

Since I received PMMA in Mexico Placement was thoughtless and extensive. Since It is irritating and itchy forgetting how bad it looks it impossible. If respondents are interested I will mail photos. My skin is exceptionally thin. Lumps are now in forehead lips and cheeks. Is there hope?
