Yes, according to my doctor, basal cell is the least dangerous. It's also the most common form of cancer. It doesn't grow very quickly and rarely metastasizes. Some of them can even be treated with topical prescription creams instead of surgically removing them.
I guess if you have to get cancer, that's the type to get.
