Sister Wives star Janelle Brown today is recovering from cancer surgery. For almost a year she thought that a scar above her lip was just a scar.

However, after multiple attempts to minimize that scar with no success, Janelle finally made an appointment with her dermatologist. The Sister Wives celeb was scheduled to see her doctor just one day before the world was turned upside down with the Coronavirus outbreak and shutdowns.

So, of course, that appointment was canceled. However, thanks to technology, Janelle Brown was able to finally have her appointment. Telemedicine in Janelle’s case was a lifesaver.

Here’s what Sister Wives’ Kody Brown’s second wife went through with her recent cancer scare and what she learned about her type of cancer.

Sister Wives: Janelle Brown Shares Cancer Journey

Sister Wives alum Janelle Brown is recovering from surgery to remove a cancerous lesion off her lip. After almost a year of the over the counter and holistic remedies, she finally had a telemedicine appointment with her dermatologist mid-April.

Then after a biopsy was performed a week later it was determined the growth was in fact cancerous. So Janelle had it removed earlier this week. The reality star says she was worried about the pain of the procedure. She’s admitted to being a “big baby” when it comes to pain.

Thankfully, Janelle says the procedure was “so slick” and the discomfort was minimal considering the size of the lesion.

Sister Wives’s Janelle Brown says it will take a few weeks to heal. However, she also says the scaring will be minimal. The type of skin cancer Janelle Brown has is not likely to spread. So hopefully with the removal and aftercare, she won’t have another reoccurrence.
