Are skin cancers life threatening? Basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas are rarely life threatening. They generally do not spread to other areas. Malignant melanoma, the third most common form of skin cancer, can be life threatening if treated late. Melanoma if treated early, can be cured. Squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma do not become or turn into malignant melanoma.
