Khloe clarified the patch was actually "a scar strip" while responding to another follower.
"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," she continued. "All is great and healing wonderfully."
Back in October, the "Kardashians" star shared a series of close-up photos of her skin to her Instagram Story while revealing the tumor.
"I have seen numerous stories going around about the ever-evolving bandage on my face with some of you wondering why I've been wearing one for the past few weeks," Khloe said at the time. "After noticing a small bump on my face and assuming it was something as minor as a zit, I decided to get it biopsied 7 months after realizing it was not budging."
According to Kardashian, receiving two biopsies at her age is "incredibly rare."

"I called none other than Dr. Garth Fisher, a dear friend of my family, and one of the best surgeons in Beverly Hills who I knew would take incredible care of my face."
Luckily Dr. Fisher was able to "get everything — all my margins appear clear and now we are onto the healing process."
"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 continued.
Khloe noted her gratitude for catching the tumor 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."
