Aren’t tanning beds better than sun tanning?

Unfortunately not! Tanning beds can have the same negative effects on the body as direct sunlight. The equipment used in tanning beds emits UV rays that can be just as damaging as the sun’s. That said, there are a few safety measures to consider when using this type of equipment:

* You’ll have to closely monitor your sessions, keeping to the minimum number and timed lengths that are recommended.

* Don’t book sessions nearer to each other than every other day.

* Always wear recommended safety eyewear.

* Follow directions that are posted near the equipment.
