Khloe Kardashian has revealed the outcome of her tumour removal, showing fans a before and after of the affected area on her face.
The 40-year-old first shared the news of her face tumour with the world on social media in 2022, after realising there was a small bump on her face that didn't go away after seven months.
She had previously suffered from melanoma on her back at just 19, and contacted her doctor when she realised something about the lump was abnormal.
She documented the process of getting the tumour removed during the third season of The Kardashians, when she revealed that the doctor was forced to cut out more than what was originally planned.

After the terrifying experience, she warned her fans to be more consistent with their skin cancer check-ups.
She also had a further procedure done to her face after the tumour removal, as it had left a sizeable indent on her right cheek.
She recently revealed on her Snapchat why she wanted to get the indent filled.
The star said: "As a result of the surgery, and the tumor my incredible doctor removed, I ended up with an indentation in the side of my face.
"I waited 9 months after surgery to get the indentation filled.”
Explaining why she waited so long, she added: "We had to make sure medically everything was safe and my doctor gave me the go ahead.”
To help fans get an idea of what difference the facial filler had, the mum-of-two shared some before and after pictures with her fans.
She also posted a picture of herself heavily bandaged after the procedure.
Of course, she isn't the only Kardashian sister to have had facial fillers, as the family has been open about the regular facial treatment they have in order to keep up with their own beauty standards.
Despite this, Kim Kardashian said in a 2022 interview with Allure that she had never used filler, although she has 'a little bit of botox'.
When the interviewer asked: "Your lips and your cheeks? No filler?”
She replied: "No filler. Never filled either one, ever.
"I’ve never had eyelash extensions.
'I’ve never done anything. I have a drop of mascara on today.
"I’ve never filled my cheeks. I’ve never filled my lips.”
Clarifying, she added: " I really, genuinely care about looking good.
"I probably care more than 90% of the people on this planet."
