‘Before I flew to New York from Los Angeles, for good morning America, Sirius XM, iHeart Radio & My Fotografiska Q&A Book Signing Event, I went to see, as I usually do when in LA, My lovely Dermatologist – Dr Tess, was the one who caught & operated on My Mole/Skin Cancer, a few years ago, and literally saved My Life…

‘Anyway, after having just finished GMA, I received a message from Dr Tess, with some urgency to return to Los Angeles, as I had 2 locations on My Skin, Shoulder & Forearm, one of which was Melanoma, that should be operated on ASAP!
‘So instead of going home to put my Christmas tree up and happily finish the year off, relaxing at home, I flew directly back to Los Angeles, after all my work in New York was done.
‘And [I] went directly from LAX airport, to surgery, with a surgeon recommended by Dr Tess, who spent several hours cleaning up and operating on me, with large margins, in the hope that we have, at the end of the day – clear margins, which would mean being free from cancer…
‘The operation was a success, but we have yet to have the results of the biopsy, which we may not receive before Christmas…
‘First of all, I’m very thankful to Dr Tess and Dr Tim, for being able to coordinate this surgery at such short notice, but for once again, hopefully Saving My Life…
‘One can never be too confident in circumstances like this, but we all believe that Dr Tim has saved the day… So finger’s crossed for now.
‘Obviously good news, would be the best Christmas present ever… Which I’m hopeful for… But I just want to say, this is also a timely reminder to all, to please get yourself checked out by your doctor…
‘It only takes a short while to do so, and you may just be saving your own life, at the end of the day… so please, for the sake of yourself, your family and friends just go to your Dr and do what must be done…

‘I love life and I want to live for a very long time and this is one way, and a choice, that could determine your future… I wish you all happy holidaze and a healthy long life… Love to all ♥️’
In 2020, Julian was left ‘shaking inside’ following an emergency operation to remove a cancerous growth from his head.
The same dermatologist noticed a lump on his head which he had had all his life ‘looked and felt a little different’ and she urged him to have a biopsy.
The results showed that the mole was cancerous and Julian immediately went under the knife in Los Angeles to get it removed.
