Although Bernhard didn’t discuss what health problems led to her needing the surgery, she joked about having concerns of possible scarring before going in.

“I know we’re just minutes away from being wheeled into the operating room, but I’m an actress, I’m a performer,” she told her doctor, Billboard reports. “Do I need to bring in a plastic surgeon? They said, ‘We’ll make it work, we’ll make it beautiful.’ … And here I am.”

Bernhard continued the show without further mention of her health. However, the Will and Grace alum later returned to the subject, grasping her chest and slumping over to fake a heart attack on stage.

“That’s a new party trick,” she quipped.
