Model Christie Brinkley has been diagnosed with skin cancer

The famous American supermodel Christie Brinkley has been diagnosed with skin cancer. He announced this on his Instagram page.

It is known that the celebrity underwent surgery after doctors discovered basal cell carcinoma on his face. It is a malignant tumor that arises from the basal cells of the dermis and is characterized by slow growth and the inability to form metastases.

Brinkley says she is now more concerned about her health by protecting her skin from sun damage.

“The good news for me is that basal cell carcinoma was caught early. And I had great doctors who removed the cancer and sewed me up to perfection like a Dior couturier. The good news for you is that it’s preventable this if Be careful with your sun protection! I’m late here, so now the mermaid/gardener will use SPF 30 on her skin, apply it as needed, wear long sleeves and a wide brimmed hat, and check regularly of the whole body… it’s a MUST,” said the model

Christie Brinkley also added that she found out about her diagnosis by accident when she came to the doctor’s office to support her daughter during the examination.

“The doctor looked at each freckle with a lens… It wasn’t my appointment, so I won’t say anything, but at the end I asked him to look at the tiny little dot I felt when he applied my foundation. He looked and immediately knew he needed a biopsy! He did it there and then! So, try your luck by scheduling a test today,” she shared.

Earlier it was reported that the Italian-French top model, singer and ex-first lady of France, Carla Bruni, said for the first time that she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
