The 38-year-old first told fans about her fear of skin cancer in October 2022. As she revealed on Tuesday, she recently had a tumor removed. The 38-year-old woman revealed the information and many close-up pictures of her skin on her Instagram Stories.
In the post, which also showed a photo of Kardashian pouting in her home gym while wearing a white cami top that said “Happy Sunday,” a fan asked her about a skin-colored bandage that was visible on her jawline.
“A bandage,” Kardashian said in response. “I had a tumor removed from my face, but I’m doing great now. Thank you for asking.”

Some of you may be wondering why I’ve been wearing a bandage on my face for the past several weeks after hearing all the stories that have been circulating. When a little bulge on my face persisted for seven months after I initially believed it to be a pimple, I made the decision to get it biopsied.
The protrusion was “very rare” for someone her age, according to both of the doctors who performed the two independent biopsies that Kardashian claims she underwent.

She discovered a few days later that the growth on her face required immediate surgery. I made a call to Beverly Hills’ top surgeon and close family friend, Dr. Garth Fisher. He would certainly take good care of my face, I knew.

“I’m glad to report that Dr. Fischer was successful in learning what he had to know. My margins are all clean, so we can proceed to the healing phase. As a result, here we are. You can still see my bandages, and once I’m done with treatment, you’ll probably be able to see a scar along with the spot on my cheek where the tumor was removed. I hope you’re appreciating how cool these face bandages are coming out in the interim.”
The founder of Good American spoke about how a malignant mole was discovered on her back. She stated that the major goal of her discussion is to urge individuals to schedule routine exams.
