Hugh Jackman Treated For Skin Cancer For Third Time

Hugh Jackman has been treated for skin cancer yet again, making this the third time in the past year that the actor has undergone surgery.

Jackman's rep confirmed to People that the Wolverine did take on more treatment to remove more cancerous cells (specifically basal cell carcinoma) and that he is "okay now."

As with his last two surgeries (in November and May), Jackman drew attention to the issue on his Instagram account, urging fans to use sunscreen.

Or else face a little SNIKT SNIKT!

Unlike his last two scares, which were also incredibly treatable, Hugh posted an image from the song "Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)" along with the caption: "SUNSCREEN!" He previously shared selfies post-surgery.

Get better Hugh!

SUNSCREEN!
