I have had 3 operations on my face so far to treat my skin cancer, I have recently been told i will need a tissue expansion in my left cheek to grow some skin for my next skin graft.

Has anyone else experienced this????

Have you telephoned the Macmillan helpline? Someone there might be able to help you and perhaps to reassure you.

I'm sorry I can't be of more help to you. Good Luck!
