Adele has previously had surgery on her vocal cords back in 2011.
Dr Steven Zeitels, whose patients have included Julie Andrews, Lionel Richie, and Roger Daltrey, treated Adele at the end of 2011 after a sore on her vocal cords caused her to lose her voice.
In a two-hour operation, he used microsurgical instruments and a laser to remove a polyp and repair a burst blood vessel with skills he claims are the result of a teenage passion for sewing leather bags.

Reappearing after surgery, at the Grammy Awards in February 2012, she thanked Dr Zeitels on stage in the first of six acceptance speeches.
The singer, whose full name is Adele Adkins, said: ‘It was a bit traumatic. Thank God my voice healed. I stuck to all of the rules they gave me.’
She admitted surgery changed her voice, saying it is ‘not as husky’ and is higher than it used to be.
