"The Dangers of MMA in Professional Nail Liquids"

Galaxy Nail Products Contain No MMA.

"The substance, methyl methacrylate, known as MMA, makes an inexpensive adhesive that bonds very strongly and dries quickly. However, in some women it can cause adverse skin reactions wherever the nails touch, and damage or destroy nail beds, sometimes permanently. The substance can cause nerve damage and exacerbate allergies in some women, according to Dr. Shelley Sekula Rodriguez, a Texas dermatologist who is a consultant for ABCNEWS.

The FDA first issued its warning about MMA in 1974, and most salons and manufacturers switched to adhesives containing ethyl methacrylate, or EMA, a substance that is safer than MMA but costs several times as much.

Today, six years later, Webb's nails are still short stumps that doctors say will never grow back. Ashamed to show her nails in public, she regrets the day she decided to try the salon's offer. "When you go cheap, that's what you get," she says. "And I shouldn't have done that." 

Webb is now suing the salon. The salon's owners deny any responsibility.

Note from Galaxy: 

Galaxy's Nail Products absolutely DO NOT contain MMA.  You can rest assured of our commitment to high quality standards on every product we manufacture. MMA is used mainly in inferior or cut-rate salon nail products.
