'X-Men' star Hugh Jackman has got treatment for minor skin cancer for the third time in last one year.

The 46-year-old actor is fine now after the basal cell carcinoma, his representative said, according to E! Online.

Jackman had a basal cell carcinoma removed in November 2013 as well as in May of this year.

The action star at that time said the cancer was growing.

"So just to be clear, it is skin cancer-it's a basal cell carcinoma, which of all the skin cancers, is the most minor. But you do need to take care of it immediately because it's growing," he had said.
