I was diagnosed with a skin cancer just at the upper lip line. Luckily I was referred to a doctor who is an oncologist. dermatologist. plastic surgeon and he used a procedure called Mohs on me. It is fast and removes the least amount of tissue and then the repair leaves only a teensy scar. I mention this because we all are going to get some form of cancer if we live long enough and sometimes we avoid going to the doctor because we hate hearing bad news. But since I went right away it was a 100% cure and a great repair job. Next week I get to wear makeup again.
So please all you young beauties... wear sunblock. I am 50 , have been wearing sunblock since the early 70's and this skin cancer is probably from the days when I wore bain-de-soleil and baked on the roof of NYC buildings. I fully expect to find others as I get old and grey.
