Khloé Kardashian Used Kylie Jenner’s Breast Surgeon — Just Not for What You’d Think
Khloé Kardashian just got real about her past with skin cancer. At 19 years old, she received a melanoma diagnosis — and it wasn’t her last time dealing with the disease. Many years later, she dealt with another melanoma lesion on her face that she initially thought was benign. Here’s what she recently told her podcast fans, including how she utilized the same plastic surgeon for cancer removal that Kylie Jenner used for her most recent breast augmentation.
Khloé Kardashian discussed her past with skin cancer — and the doctor she used for its removal
Khloé Kardashian got candid about skin cancer on her podcast, Khloé in Wonder Land. In an episode airing on July 30, 2025, she explained how her first bout of cancer occurred when she was 19.
“I literally didn’t even tell my family because I knew I just had to get this removed, and I’ll be fine,” Kardashian explained. “And I didn’t tell them because I didn’t want to worry anyone. I knew I was fine. Cancer’s a really scary word. I was also 19, and you’re nuts at 19 years old.” She noted that she went to the doctor, had the procedure, and didn’t think much of it after that.
Years later, Kardashian explained how she discovered a flesh-colored bump on her face, which she initially brushed off as cystic acne. However, the spot never went away. Thankfully, a specialist performing one of Kardashian’s facials suggested biopsying the spot. “Within days, they found out it was melanoma,” Kardashian explained.
To get the tumor and surrounding tissue removed, Kardashian noted she went to plastic surgeon Dr. Garth Fisher, whom she calls a “family friend” of the Kardashian-Jenner family. Fisher was able to successfully remove the tumor. “We did it; everything was perfect,” she continued. “He got all that he needed in the first time. So, now I don’t have skin cancer.”
Fans of the famous family have likely heard Dr. Fisher’s name before. When Kylie Jenner dropped the details on her breast augmentation, she noted that Fisher did her surgery. She wrote to a fan on TikTok, “445 cc, moderate profile, half under the muscle!!!!! silicone!!! garth fisher!!! hope this helps lol.”
