DANIELLE Lloyd revealed she was back in hospital to remove another mole after her recent skin cancer battle.
The model, 41, was diagnosed with melanoma in February and had the suspicious mole near her collarbone removed earlier this year.
Danielle, who is now cancer-free, was not taking any chances and had a biopsy on another unusual mole on her stomach on Tuesday.
The star shared a photo of the mole in question and snaps of her on the bed ahead of the minor surgery procedure.
She wrote: "It only looks small but it's definitely changed in colour and size."
Documenting her time in hospital, she said: "I was a little bit apprehensive when I was waiting but then I was absolutely fine going in.'
She then shared a picture of the mole following the op with stitches in place.
Danielle continued: "When I got home I was a little bit sore and a little bit swollen but overall I'm just looking forward to getting some positive results."
The mum-of-five described the experience as quick and painless but said she would now have a two month wait until she gets the results.
She then urged her followers to beware of their changing moles and to continue to protect yourself with SPF.
She added: "Trigger Warning. Today I had another surgery to remove another mole — this time on my stomach.
"We’re hoping it’s just a precaution, but I’ll be waiting 8–10 weeks for results.
"Please don’t ignore any changes to your skin. I never thought this would happen to me… until it did.
"Early detection saves lives — skin cancer is highly treatable when caught early.
"If something doesn’t look or feel right, see a doctor.
"Protect your skin: Use high SPF. Cover up. Say no to sunbeds. Look after yourself and those around you."
Danielle's sunscreen warning comes after ex Towie star Sam Faiers sparked outrage after she revealed her kids never use sunscreen.
Samantha was forced to fit back and said she is not a medical expert but said she believes SPF is “pretty harmful and full of toxic ingredients”, adding that her family has “built a tolerance” to the sun.
Her response baffled followers and experts alike.
One follower responded: “You need to delete your story about not wearing sunscreen, I don’t think you understand the damage you can do to your followers by promoting this.”
Meanwhile, Bruce Green, chartered chemist, scientist and founder of SOS Serum Skincare, says there is “no such thing as ‘building tolerance’ to UV rays”.
“Skin damage from UV exposure is cumulative and largely irreversible,” he stressed.
SCARY ORDEAL
In May, Danielle told The Sun: " Being a mum, I was trying to put a brave face on for everyone, but inside I’ve been crumbling.
"I was worried every single day that I was going to die."
In February Danielle shared graphic photos alongside a candid health update to raise awareness of skin cancer - admitting her own patch was smaller than a 5p coin.
She had an operation to remove a cancerous patch from just above her collarbone, after spotting a change in a small freckle.
She admitted she rarely wore sunscreen with a high SPF, saying: "Honestly, if I did, it was very low factor as I go so brown very quickly. I never thought my skin tone could get skin cancer and if I did anyone can".
The mum also said she had ditched sunbeds for the first time in her life.
Danielle previously explained she only noticed the difference after looking back at old holiday photos, where the mark appeared noticeably darker and had changed in shape.
The TV personality said she was "really shocked" to receive the news and would need to have an operation to determine if it has spread.
Danielle said the Macmillan nurses at the hospital had "really supported" her after being "shocked" by the health news.
She added: "Just honestly, not what I expected today. And I suppose not what anyone expects.
"But please guys look after your skin. Stay off sunbeds, wear factor 50. Just look after yourself because honestly you never know what's going to happen."
The appearance of a lump or discoloured patch on the skin that continues to persist after a few weeks can be a sign of a form of skin cancer according to the NHS website.
A new mole or a change in an existing mole may also be signs of skin cancer.
Danielle rose to prominence as a beauty queen who was crowned Miss England 2004 and later Miss Great Britain 2006.
