JAKARTA - Musician Julian Lennon reported that he had just undergone an emergency operation, immediately after being diagnosed with skin cancer.

Through his Instagram account, the son of music legend John Lennon told how the emergency operation took place.

Julian explained that he had undergone routine examinations with a dermatologist in Los Angeles, before leaving for New York to attend several television and radio programs.

Dr Tess, is the one who found & operated my leather tag, a few years ago, and really saved my life, "wrote Julian Lennon in the caption of the post, Thursday, December 19.

He revealed that after appearing at Good Morning America, he received an emergency call from his dermatologist, who told him he had to be operated as soon as possible, because one of his skin parts was diagnosed with melanoma.

So, instead of going home to put up a Christmas tree and ending the year happily, relaxing at home, I immediately flew back to Los Angeles, after all my work in New York was done, and immediately left LAX airport, to the surgery site, with the surgeon recommended by Dr. Tess, "said the 61-year-old musician.

After a few hours, the operation was declared successful. However, he still has to wait for the results of the biopsy.

"The operation was successful, but we haven't got the results of the biopsy, which we probably won't accept before Christmas," he said.

Julian hopes that there will be no malicious findings from the ongoing biopsy.

From his personal experience, he reminded his followers to check with the doctor.

"Obviously this is good news, it will be the best Christmas gift ever. But I want to say, this is also the right reminder for everyone to see a doctor. It only takes a while to do so, and you may save your own life, in the end, "said Julian.

So, for your own sake, family, and friends, go to the doctor and do what to do. I love life and I want to live longer, and this is one way and a choice that can determine your future. I hope you all enjoy a fun vacation and a healthy long life. Greetings to all."
