Ariana Madix Skin Cancer
She had a mole on her chest that seemed particularly dark, turned out to be something worth paying attention to. “I had noticed it a handful of years before getting to the doctor,” Madix says. “Then I sometimes got DMs from fans saying that they had noticed it, or that they were a dermatologist and it worried them.
When I finally got health insurance and could afford it, I went to the dermatologist and asked about it. Madix’s doctor didn’t like the look of the spot and suggested she have it removed. He explained that even if it was benign, it was atypical and could eventually become problematic. “He sent me to a doctor he knew would be able to see me right then,” she recalls.
“I drove over and the second doctor removed it that same afternoon and sent it off to be tested.” When it was time to hear her results, Madix already had a feeling the news wasn’t good. Her doctor asked her to come into the office rather than telling her the results of the biopsy over the phone. When she got there, they gave her the news the spot was a melanoma.
One of the most serious forms of skin cancer, melanoma can spread to other organs more quickly than other common forms of the disease like basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Her doctor felt they had caught her melanoma at a good time, as it was still in stage I. The estimated five-year survival rate for patients whose melanoma is detected early is about 99 percent.
The survival rate falls to 65 percent when the disease reaches the lymph nodes and 25 percent when the disease metastasizes to distant organs. “It was crazy, but I do feel like I got lucky with how slowly it had progressed,” Madix says. “It seemed like it had been on my body forever, but it wasn’t too thick yet.”
Her treatment was nothing to brush off, however. Madix’s doctor suggested an aggressive approach to removing the cancer, something she remembered being jarring. “It’s scary when a doctor says they want to be aggressive with treatment,” she says. “It freaked me out a little bit. They wanted to attack it. They didn’t say, ‘Oh, we’ll just do this and it’ll be fine.’”
She then underwent surgery a couple weeks later, along with a sentinel lymph node biopsy in order to determine if the cancer cells had spread beyond the tumor site. Her doctor removed a relatively large patch of skin from her chest, making sure the margins were wide enough to catch all of the cancer cells.
She recalls the first few days of her recovery as pretty painful and uncomfortable, with large bandages across her chest wound and in her armpit to catch drainage. After a few days, her doctor removed her bandages and she was left with stitches that would later dissolve. “Some of them started coming out and I remember thinking, OK, I guess I’m a doctor now, pulling out these stitches,” she says, laughing. “
After that, it was pretty easy. I still have a sizeable, noticeable scar, but it’s definitely a lot better than it was.” She then underwent a full-body scan with an oncologist after the surgery and was given the all-clear. She has been cancer-free since her procedure and sees her dermatologist every six months for a skin exam.
