Hugh Jackman undergoes biopsies for basal cell carcinoma amid new health scare

Hugh Jackman is reminding everyone about the importance of applying sunscreen. The Greatest Showman alum recently shared he has completed two biopsies for basal cell carcinoma. In a video posted to social media, the 54-year-old showcased a bandage over his nose, noting a visit to his doctor's office. "I wanted you to hear it from me just in case someone sees me on the street or whatever," he began. "I've just had two biopsies done. I just went to my doctor... and she just saw little things, could be or could not be basal cell, in her opinion. She doesn't know." The actor also went on to issue a reminder about taking care of your skin. "If I can just take this opportunity to remind you summer is coming for those of us in the northern hemisphere, please wear sunscreen," Jackman continued. "It is just not worth it. No matter how much you want a tan, trust me, trust me, trust me." As he concluded, "This is all stuff that happened 25 years ago and it's coming out now. Put some sunscreen on."
