Kevin Jonas has a reminder for his fans to help them avoid a potential S.O.S. situation.

On Tuesday, Jonas revealed he had skin cancer, specifically a basal cell carcanoma, removed from his forehead. He disclosed the procedure on his Instagram with a video showing the mole before surgery and the bandaged wound after removal.

"So today I am getting a basal cell carcinoma removed from my head," Jonas said while laying in prep at the doctor's office. "Yes, that is a actual little skin cancer guy that started to grow and now I have to get surgery to remove it."

Jonas also included a plea to his fans to remember to have regular visits with their dermatologist in the caption to the video. "Friendly reminder to get your moles checked," he wrote.
