Other skin cancers have a low mortality and can mostly just be chopped out because they don't tend to invade other tissues and spread throughout the body. Most skin cancer deaths are from melanoma because it often invades and spreads. The mortality rate has gone down a lot for melanoma due to treatments, but it can't be caught too late and even then the treatments are much more intense than just an excision.
