Nicholas Tse undergoes surgery for skin problem

The Hong Kong star disclosed that he was suffering from serious skin problems on a talk show




Hong Kong actor Nicholas Tse recently revealed that he underwent a surgery to remove a cancerous growth on his scalp. During the talk show, Nicholas shared that he received the call from the host to appear on the program, on the day he went for the procedure.

The 32-year-old first noticed the appearance of black moles on his crown three years ago, when he had to shave for the filming of movie Bodyguards and Assassins. He waved it off but was alarmed when he discovered that the moles increased in size and became patches of pigmentation when he went bald again for a recent movie role.
His manager urged him to visit the doctor when he observed that some of these black patches were swollen.



At the doctor's he was advised to undergo operation immediately as his condition was diagnosed as a type of skin cancer.
Nicholas' worried fans left pages of online messages to show their concern after the program was aired.
His manager reassured them and clarified that it is a benign growth.

t's a good thing we discovered [the disease] early. On Nicholas' behalf, I thank everyone for their concern.

Nicholas also mentioned all the cancerous tissues have been removed after the surgery that has left him with five stitches.
