Is there even evidence saying how sunbeds are dangerous?

[Anonymous]

My parents tell me I shouldn't use them but literally noone I know has had any problems with them

I really don't know if there is firm evidence or not regarding the dangers of UV tanning beds. Or maybe I just choose to ignore the evidence.

Until illness kept me indoors and out of tanning salons this past summer, I've been an insatiable tanning aficionado for many years.

I've yet to experience any ill effects from tanning, but who knows what the future may hold.

Tanning lifts my mood incredibly. It also makes me feel sexy and desirable.

I think that the potential risks are worth it in order to feel so good about myself.

Yes it's using UV bulbs and do the same damage as unfiltered sunlight. So they are worse than the sun for your skin and you will get the same type of risks such as skin cancer and dry leather skin. Ie your skin will age much faster than your normal age. So you trade darker skin for a horrible skin when you get older.

I think in moderation they are ok. But I am sure in our area you have to be over 18.

Yes, just google it.

But in short they damage your skin, making it age much quicker and even may cause skin cancer/ or at least increases the chance for skin cancer.

But like everything it dependa on the individual and the amount of usage.

Nah, if they weren't safe people wouldn't use them. Just be you and enjoy them

[Chill_Thoughts]

Ofc you can get burns if you use it incorrectly by the way... But if you know what you're doing then nah
I still prefer the sun but I live by the beach so it'd be quite dumb not to just sunbathe xD
by the way you look great on that second pic! 🙃

Ever heard of skin cancer? I know a few women who used then religiously through their teens and 20's and now their skin looks like an old leather couch.. it's not attractive

Have a look at scholar. google. com, that's where you'd find that kind of info 🙂

Yes they can cause skin cancer.

[FilmGuy93]

There's an elevated cancer risk

[BJP21]

Only when you have high risk of skin cancers.
