Can getting a spray tan cause cancer?

Question

I was interested in getting a spray tan because i'm going back to school. i don't wanna go into a tanning bed because it's not really safe and i know can cause cancer. but if i get a spray tan, is there anything big to watch out for? can getting a spray tan cause cancer??

Answer 1

No. Only UV rays will cause skin Cancer. In the link I have provided in the source there is this -

"DHA based Sunless tanning has been recommended by the Skin Cancer Organization"

So this is reccomended by the cancer organization as a safer and healthier option instead of being too exposed.
