Khloe Kardashian Offers a Candid Update on Her Recovery Journey Post-Cheek Tumor Removal
Khloe Kardashian has been candid about her health journey following her battle with skin cancer. Recently, she disclosed that she utilized facial injections to address a cheek "indentation" left by surgery. In 2022, Kardashian had surgery to excise a malignant tumor from her face. This procedure resulted in a noticeable indent on her cheek, images of which she shared on Snapchat, as reported by E! News.
"The surgery and the tumor extraction by my outstanding physician led to an indentation on my face," Kardashian penned. She displayed a series of undated photos, illustrating the indent before and after the injections. She mentioned that she waited nine months post-surgery in 2022 to fill the indentation, ensuring she had her doctor's consent beforehand.
As the founder of Good American, she has been transparent about her health experiences. Initially, she decided to consult a doctor about a "small bump" on her face, which persisted for months. Her dermatologists later advised an "immediate operation" to remove the tumor, noting its rarity for someone her age. "I was fortunate; all I have is a scar with a story to tell," she reflected. "Many aren't as fortunate, and I am eternally grateful."
Her narrative serves as a reminder for everyone to undergo regular check-ups.
