Khloe Kardashian shared her journey to recovery after discovering a small cancerous tumor on her cheek in 2022.
She documented her story through pictures on her Instagram story where she revealed that the tumor had been successfully removed.
Khloe also praised her doctor for doing an excellent job in minimizing scarring on her face.
She wrote,
“For those who don’t know I had a skin cancer scare on my face, my angel @garthmd is who I trusted with removing the tumour. Doctor Fischer is out of this world fabulous not only did he remove the tumor and make sure that I’m completely cancer-free but he did such a stellar job of making my scar as small and beautiful as possible.”
Khloe Kardashian revealed that the removal of the tumor resulted in an indentation on her face. This made it appear somewhat deformed.
She shared that she has started filling the indentation with her doctor’s approval. She posted before-and-after pictures to showcase her progress.
Khloe expressed her appreciation for her medical team. She used the opportunity to urge her followers to stay attentive to their bodies and schedule regular checkups.
She wrote in another post, “I never imagined that this tiny speck would turn into skin cancer and I can’t fathom what could have possibly happened had I not gone to the doctor to get it looked at paying attention to our skin and any changes in our skin and body no matter how small is so important.”
This development follows fans’ observations in October 2022 when Khloe Kardashian was frequently seen wearing bandaids on her cheek.
It was during this time that she first spoke publicly about the bump on her face.
