Tanning Beds Cancer

Since the skin is the body’s largest organ it is exposed to everything in our in our environment, especially a potential enemy–the sun! Sunlight does stimulate the body to produce Vitamin D, which builds strong bones, and is a source of calcium. On the other hand, the irreversible damage to the skin from ultraviolet radiation produced by the sun is quite alarming. It is now estimated that 50 percent of people who reach the age of sixty-five will develop some form of skin cancer. According to the American Academy of Dermatology there are 7,500 deaths yearly in America due to malignant melanoma.

The “Skin Cancer Answer” warns no sunscreen is 100 percent effective against sunburn, nor does it prevent skin cancer. And, if you think getting a tan from sun lamps and beds is better…it’s not.

Indoor tanning, once thought to be safe because it mainly uses UVA radiation, is now known to be just as bad as sun exposure. Clinical studies have proven UVA penetrates more deeply into the skin than UVB and can cause skin cancer.

Every day dermatologists advise their clients to avoid the damaging rays of the sun and tanning beds as the first line of defense against skin cancer and rapid skin aging. Therefore, if you would like to be tan and healthy looking this winter your only alternative would be a sunless tan.

If you use a sunless tan misting treatment or booth, tanning becomes healthy and sensible. In a private booth a revolutionary spray process will mist your body uniformly with a specially formulated grade of the natural tanning ingredient DHA. DHA is a  safe compound found in nature, it is a sugar cane derivative that oxidizes on your skin, creating a healthy and radiant tan.

The tanning process takes approximately one minute in the booth. You will however, have to wait five hours to shower, then the color will reach it’s peak and the tan will last for six days. So, no more pasty white winters…GOODBYE TO SUN DAMAGE…enjoy a healthy sun-kissed appearance anytime!
