  • 8 years ago
Hugh Jackman has once again been treated for skin cancer on his nose.
The Wolverine star took to Instagram on Monday to share a bandaged post-op photo of himself.
"An example of what happens when you don't wear sunscreen.
Basal Cell.
The mildest form of cancer but serious, nonetheless.
PLEASE USE SUNSCREEN and get regular check-ups," Jackman, 47, wrote in the caption.
This certainly isn't the first time the actor has used social media to warn against skin cancer.
This marks his third post-op photo in three years, and fourth procedure on his nose.
"It's always a bit of a shock just hearing the word 'cancer,' " Jackman said.
"Being an Australian it's a very common thing.
I never wore sunscreen growing up so I was a prime candidate for it."
