On Tuesday, model Christie Brinkley revealed that she recently had surgery to remove skin cancer from her face. In an Instagram post, she said her doctors caught the basal-cell carcinoma — a common type of skin cancer — early.
“I had great Doctors that removed the cancer and stitched me up to perfection like an haute couture Dior,” Brinkley captioned her post, which included photos of the scar and stitches on her left temple.
Surprisingly, Brinkley wrote that her cancer was actually discovered during her daughter’s checkup.“It wasn’t my appointment so I wasn’t going to say anything but at the VERY end I asked if he could just look at a little tiny dot I could feel as I applied my foundation. He took a look and knew immediately it needed a biopsy! He did it then and there!”
