Gordon Ramsay to Fans After Skin Cancer Diagnosis: ‘Don’t Forget Your Sunscreen’

Gordon Ramsay underwent swift surgery to remove basal cell carcinoma, highlighting the importance of daily sunscreen use to prevent the most common skin cancer, officials say.

  • On Saturday, Gordon Ramsay announced on Instagram that he underwent surgery to remove basal cell carcinoma and shared two photos showing a bandage and stitches.
  • Clinically, basal cell carcinoma , a common non-melanoma skin cancer, typically appears on sun-exposed areas like the face and neck, and health bodies including Mayo Clinic and NHS advise sun protection and regular skin checks to help guard against it.
  • Ramsay said surgeons removed the basal cell carcinoma from his jawline, and he thanked The Skin Associates and his medical team for their fast reactive work.
  • The post drew widespread well-wishes and safety reminders, with Rob Rinder among those responding and fans urging "slap on a hat, suncream and seek shade," echoed by Ramsay's sunscreen reminders.
  • Public-Health data show the World Health Organization estimated over 1.5 million new skin cancer cases in 2022, and experts like Dr Jonathan Kentley say sunscreen is safe, countering the anti-sunscreen movement.
