"I've dabbled with fillers and I go to my doctor in the city," she pointed out. "I don't want to look 'done' or anything."

Brinkley's journey with beauty procedures took on a new dimension after she was diagnosed with skin cancer, a pivotal moment in her life. 

She confessed that it was this diagnosis that motivated her to make some changes to her skincare routine and take a more proactive approach to her health.

"I just did Fraxel [a skin resurfacing treatment] because I had skin cancer and that helps get rid of pre-cancerous cells. It's mainly about health for me now," she said.

Last March, Brinkley announced she had been diagnosed with skin cancer.

The supermodel shared that she had basal cell carcinoma removed from the side of her face.

"The good news for me is we caught the basal cell Carcinoma early," she wrote on Instagram at the time. "And I had great Doctors that removed the cancer and stitched me up to perfection like an haute couture Dior..."

While the "Uptown Girl" author has been in the spotlight for decades, Brinkley has never let age define her. 

She reflected on the pressure she faced as a young model in the industry, especially when it came to the notion of aging. 

"I was literally told you will be chewed up and spit out by 30," she recalled.
