Khloe Kardashian has revealed the severity of the surgery she underwent to remove a tumor on her left cheek last year after learning it was melanoma.
In a teaser trailer for next season of Hulu’s The Kardashians, the Good American founder gave fans their first look at the huge, vertical incision without a bandage.
In a brutal post-op photo, a doctor is seen holding a ruler up to the freshly stitched wound to show that it measured four centimeters in length.
Khloe opened up about her skin cancer scare in Thursday’s trailer, reminding viewers that, although her surgery was a success, ‘Melanoma is deadly.’
The ordeal took a massive toll on Khloe, both physically and emotionally, with her BFF Malika Haqq remarking that she’s never ‘seen her this low.’

Khloe, who is predisposed to melanoma, previously had surgery at age 19 to remove melanoma on her back.
In October 2022, the mother-of-two took to her stories to explain the bandage on her face after fans began asking what it was for.
She confessed that she has to undergo an ‘immediate operation’ after having the lingering bump on her cheek checked out, which was later determined to be cancerous.
At the time, Khloe happily stated that her margins were clear and that she was focused on her healing process.
The teaser shows Khloe’s family reacting to her latest bout of melanoma and expressing their concerns about what’s to come.
‘Mom just told me that it’s melanoma,’ concerned sister Kylie Jenner, 25, tells Khloe.
In a confessional, Khloe’s mom Kris Jenner says: ‘This on her face is very concerning,’ before showing footage of Khloe sporting a huge bandage on her face.
Malika tells Khloe she hasn’t seen her ‘this low’ while Kendall Jenner, 27, says aloud ‘she doesn’t sleep, she lost a lot weight’ as scenes of Khloe with her newborn son and her getting tested at a doctor’s office play out on screen.
‘Melanoma is deadly. This was way more serious than I anticipated it to be,’ Khloe says.

Also in the trailer, Khloe is asked about her relationship with baby daddy and love rat Tristan Thompson, whom has been on and off over the years.
Kourtney Kardashian’s ex Scott Disick asked her the question over dinner: ‘How’s everything going with Tristan. Where do you guys stand?’
‘I think he thinks, lets just ride this out but no, no chances,’ Khloe said.
He had another child with Houston trainer Maralee Nichols despite him knowingly having a second child via surrogacy with Khloe.
Maralee welcomed Tristan’s third child in December 2021, one month after the Khloe and Tristan’s surrogate was implanted by their fertilized embryo.
Khloe and Tristan’s second child was born in July 2022, via surrogacy; they are parents to daughter True, five, together and the basketball player, 32, has a son with ex-girlfriend Jordan Craig named Prince, six.
The drama doesn’t stop with Khloe as Kim, Kylie and Kourtney also have their personal matters exposed in the upcoming season.

At one point in the dramatic clip, Kim Kardashian, 42, is seen breaking down in tears in an emotional moment. It is unclear what she is crying over, however it is understood to be a family matter.
Meanwhile, Kylie opens up about plastic surgery regrets, as she says she wishes she never did anything to herself in a candid moment.
Kylie addresses her plastic surgery when she is chatting with friend Anastasia ‘Stassie’ Karanikolaou, telling her: ‘I don’t want my daughter to do the things that I did. I wish I’d never touched anything to begin with.’
The trailer for season three kicks off with a humorous note, with Kim telling the producers she doesn’t remember where they left off from season two.
‘You were still in a relationship,’ a producer says to her, to which Kim replies: ‘I was? Damn,’ with a grin.
The producer was referring to her relationship with Pete Davidson; they dated from October of 2021 until August of 2022.
Rumors of a possible romance with Pete, 29, were first sparked when the two kissed during an early October 2021 Saturday Night Live skit as she played Princess Jasmine and he portrayed Aladdin, and while initial reports claimed they are just friends, fans believed something more significant was brewing.

Weeks later, she was spotted at Knott’s Berry Farm in Buena Park, California for the theme park’s annual Halloween event with a group of friends, including Pete, her sister Kourtney and Kourtney’s fiancé at the time, Travis Barker.
Pete and Kim reportedly enjoyed a private rooftop dinner at Campania in Staten Island in November 2021, followed by a group outing at club Zero Bond the following night.
Kim and Pete were seen sweetly holding hands in November 2021 while celebrating his birthday in Palm Springs, California, as seen in Dailymail.com exclusive photos.
She went Instagram official with Pete in March 2022, marking the first time she has shared him on her Instagram page.
They split in August of last year, with the funnyman quickly moving on briefly to Emily Ratajkowski and then Chase Sui Wonders, who is his now girlfriend.
‘Things change really quickly,’ Kim is heard saying in the trailer, as she walks into a room to talk to Khloe.
Khloe asks her, ‘Are you ok?’ looking concerned.
Kim’s back was to the camera initially before she is seen looking upset.
She whispers softly ‘no,’ clearly emotional.
She then breaks down into tears and starts sobbing ‘…just not okay.’
Khloe rushes to her side and holds her as Kim says ‘I’m having such a hard day today.’
It is unclear what caused her emotional moment, but it is understood to be a family matter.
Since the season two finale aired, Kim split from boyfriend Pete and her divorce from Kanye West was finalized.
A producer says to her, ‘Today your divorce was final,’ to which she simply replies: ‘yeah.’
Kendall gave her two-cents: ‘I don’t know how Kim handles everything with her ex-husband [Kanye West],’ opting not to directly name him.

‘I don’t think you realize the weight of the world is on your shoulders,’ Kris tells Kim.
‘He has made up the most insane narrative. We stay silent through all the lies for my kids,’ Kim says, as her voice quivers with emotion.
A montage of her and their four children is shown; they are parents to North, nine, Saint, seven, Chicago, five and Psalm, three.
Kim and Kanye were married for nearly seven years; the divorce was finalized in November 2022.
Kylie rounds up her sisters Kim, Khloe, Kourtney and Kendall to talk to them about their contribution to what some call unattainable beauty standards they are setting – due in part to surgical procedures, fillers and preventative aging procedures.
‘All of us just need to have a bigger conversation about the beauty standards that we’re setting,’ Kylie proclaims in one clip.
Kourtney, 44, appeared to be mad at Kim for using her wedding to Travis Barker as business opportunity, as Kim was seen with Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana.
‘She felt like her wedding vibes were like stripped from her,’ Kendall said to Kylie.
Kim disagrees, saying that she ‘couldn’t’ have been more mindful.’
Kris, 67, appears to be the voice of reason in the situation, as clips of all the concerned sisters sitting around as the matriarch arrived.
‘I’m really good at being calm when there’s turbulence but this has been a whirlwind of a year.’
‘People think its a misunderstanding. It’s not. It’s who she is to her core,’ Kourtney says to Khloe.

‘We know how to be there for each other, but only on a superficial level,’ Kourtney tells a shocked Khloe, who answers simply with ‘What?’
‘This tension goes way back,’ Khloe says as a stern looking Kourtney glances icily at Kim during one of her wedding get togethers.
Kourtney and Kim have had a up and down relationship over the years, with the sisters even getting into a physical fight.
‘Family is what I value the most so I just feel very anxious,’ Kris says with Kylie noting that she ‘doesn’t think everything’s going to be ok.’
Season three of The Kardashians is set to drop on May 25 on Hulu.
