How to scale multiple images for an actor?

I'm scaling the image of one of my actors by 5/2. The problem is, when I switch to other images using animation this scaling doesn't carry over. Currently, I'm using something along the lines of... 
 getImage().scale(getImage().getWidth()*5/2,getImage().getHeight()*5/2);
...in the constructor of the class. I think my issue is that it's a one-time thing in the constructor, but if I put it in the act method it's repeatedly executed. Can I make it so it's executed once, whenever an image is changed? Thank you!

You could try conditioning whether to scale the image on a boolean, so it's able to be scaled, but won't do so unless you set the boolean to be whatever you want For example: 
//set a boolean: scaled = false;

if(!scaled)
{
    //put your line to scale the image here;
    scaled = true;
}
set scaled to false whenever you're needing to scale the image
