Hollywood star Margaret Qualley has revealed that the prosthetics she wore in the critically-acclaimed horror movie “The Substance” caused so much damage to her skin that it took about a year to recover.

"Certain parts of that movie ... will stay with me forever in a way that feels horrific. But I mean that in a good way," Qualley tells IndieWire.

In an interview on the podcast Happy Sad Confused, actress Margaret Qualley shared that the prosthetics she wore for the movie "The Substance" caused her face to break out in "absurd" acne.
