Michael Clarke Says He Had Another Skin Cancer Cut From His Nose Last Month

He links his risk to years in the sun, urging six‑monthly checks.

Overview

  • The former Australia captain told The Kyle and Jackie O Show he had a lesion removed from his nose about four weeks ago and sees a dermatologist every six months.
  • Clarke estimated he has had about seven cancerous spots cut from his face, describing treatment that freezes sunspots and surgically removes basal cell lesions.
  • He first faced skin cancer in 2006 and later had three non‑melanoma lesions taken off his face in 2019.
  • In August he posted a photo with a bandage on his nose, credited surgeon Dr Bish Soliman, and reminded followers to get their skin checked.
  • Clarke attributed his vulnerability to prolonged on‑field sun exposure during his cricket career and continues to use his platform to promote early detection.
