The 45-year-old explained that he underwent a buccal fat removal procedure in 2021, which left him in chronic pain from scar tissue buildup that blocked his saliva from draining.
The culture expert told the outlet that he decided to undergo the procedure after gaining around 70 pounds during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The surgery forced saliva to accumulate in each cheek before the scar tissue hardened it. "There'd be times you'd see me smile, and it was tight," he says. "My cheeks would be big because they were full of saliva, full of scar tissue. I was in the worst pain."
During series two of his talk show, Karamo lost 70 pounds and realized "the more weight I lost, the less scar tissue you could see," which encouraged the The Real World: Philadelphia star to stop eating.
Karamo has kept quiet about this whole ordeal because he was "embarrassed" and admits he would do it now. Recently, Karamo underwent a procedure to fix his salivary glands and remove the scar tissue from his cheeks. He thanks his doctor and says he feels much better these days.
Karamo told the outlet he never sued the doctor who preferred his buccal fat procedure, but he does want to be transparent and help others who are suffering from chronic pain. "I was fortunate enough to have the resources to find somebody who could help me, but I want to tell people that you don't have to suffer alone. I wish I would have told people what I was going through and not allowed myself to just stay quiet," he added.
