Will Tanning Beds Give Me Cancer??

Question

Will Tanning Beds Give Me Cancer??

Answer 1

Oh yeah, big time. Skin cancer is one of the most underrated, costly cancers out there. So many people are ignorant to the effects of UV rays. Tanning Beds are nothing BUT UV rays. I tan so easily, I get super nervous about skin cancer actually.

I definitely say stop with the tanning, and opt for a spray tan or tanning moisturizer.

Answer 2

Yes.

They have made money for some time now banking on uninformed kids getting into the tanning "culture." Sick. At 30 you can get melanoma or something else. You DO NOT want that for a stupid tan. The risk is very high.

here's something from the cancer.gov site:

"Women who use tanning beds more than once a month are 55 percent more likely to develop malignant melanoma, the most deadly form of skin cancer."  55 PERCENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
