Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay had skin cancer removed near his ear, he revealed in an Instagram post on Friday.

Ramsay says doctors removed a Basal Cell Carcinoma. He shared a photo of the scar he has from the procedure, just below his ear.

Basal Cell Carcinoma most often happens on parts of the skin that are exposed to the sun, which is why the 58-year-old reminded his followers to use sunscreen in his social media post.

"Please don't forget your sunscreen this weekend. I promise you it's not a face lift! I'd need a refund," Ramsay wrote.
