Khloe Kardashian has shared a health update on social media after having a tumor removed from her face. Back in October, the 38-year-old reality TV star explained to fans that she underwent an immediate operation to get a tumor removed after noticing a stubborn "zit" on her face that didn't budge, as reported by <a href="https://people.com/health/khloe-kardashian-tumor-removed-face-melanoma/">People</a>. "You'll continue to see my bandages and when I'm allowed, you'll probably see a scar (and an indentation in my cheek from the tumor being removed) but until then I hope you enjoy how fabulous I'm making these face bandages look," she wrote at that time. Over the weekend, the Kardashians star once again addressed her health issues after posting a selfie for fans where she is seen with a visible skin-colored bandaid on her jawline. Check out her selfie below:  [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/CpJJDJhvZfW/]] Upon seeing her post - which was captioned "Happy Sunday" -  one fan commented: "And what the heck is on your cheek," to which Kardashian replied: "A bandage. I had a tumor removed from my face but I'm totally ok. Thank you for asking." When another follower also asked about the bandage, the mother-of-two - who has 295 million followers on the social media platform added that the bandaid was actually "a scar strip". "I had a tumor removed from my face a few months ago so I wear this for healing and the prevention of my scar getting worse. All is great and healing wonderfully," she explained. <img class="wp-image-1263197827 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/03/Screen-Shot-2023-03-01-at-12.16.57.png" alt="" width="884" height="384" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram]] <img class="wp-image-1263197828 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/03/Screen-Shot-2023-03-01-at-12.23.47.png" alt="" width="884" height="480" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram]] Kardashian - who also revealed she had a melanoma removed from her back at age 19 - has spoken about how "grateful" she is that the tumor was "caught early". "I was lucky and all I have is a scar to tell a story with. Most people aren't as lucky as me and I am forever thankful and grateful," she added, as cited by <a href="https://people.com/health/khloe-kardashian-tumor-removed-face-melanoma/">People</a>. Her surgeon, Dr. Garth Fisher, also took to his Instagram to explain the surgical procedure and praised the Good American founder for allowing him to operate on her. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/Cjl9dJzp3gi/]] "Dear Khloe, @khloekardashian, you and your family have been dear to me for a very long time. I was so saddened that you required a procedure requiring removing of a dangerous and significant tumor from your face," he wrote alongside a re-post of her Instagram Stories from earlier in the day. "I felt like I was operating on my own daughter," Fisher continued. "I was honored that you put your trust in my staff and me. I am tremendously relieved that we got it all out and you can now get past this. "You’re beautiful and have a heart of gold. Now let’s get this scar to heal great and be mindful of too much sun exposure :)," he added. <h6>Featured image credit: ZUMA Press, Inc. / Alamy</h6>
