Proof That Tanning Beds Are Harmful!

Finally, they have proved that tanning beds are "like smoking for the skin"! For the longest time allot of people thought that the tanning beds were safer than lying out under the sun itself. NOT!

Dr. Doris Day (Dermatologist) said that people are using them starting under the age of 30 which is even worse. Using tanning beds along with using birth control pills also increase the risk of getting skin cancers.

There is no health benefits here.

Category 1 Cancer Risks:
  1. Tanning Beds
  2. Smoking
  3. Hepatitis B
UVA and UVB rays are both dangerous. Along with the pill increases your risk, and most of the tanning bed users are young.

You can try to repair skin damage by:
  1. Use Topical Retinoid's
  2. Exfoliate
  3. Moisturize
Wearing sunscreen everyday is so important! And, don't forget to reapply!

Have a happy and safe Summer!
