I am 23, and have spentyears tanning in beds. I am worried about wrinkles. Will i still get them if i stop?

Answer 1

It depends on a lot of factors. I did the same thing, then I stopped tanning and started moisturizing. I have fewer wrinkles than most people my age.

Answer 2

I got a bad sunburn when I was 14. After that, I NEVER went out in the sun. I was the whitest girl you ever saw until I was 32 and got a tan "by accident" (having lunch at a siedwalk cafe). I was surprised that I didn't burn and decided to get a tan once in a while. I only tanned for two summers (six months total) and suddenly I have wrinkles, after never having a single one for 32 years!! My skin has never been the same, and I aged at least 5 years in just two summers. Imagine what you girls who have spent your teen years and early twenties on tanning beds will look like when you are my age! You won't see the wrinkles yet. They'll just pop up out of no-where in your thirties. Trust me. You'll see.

I've heard that most of your skin damage occurrs in your teens. Everybody gets wrinkles, but your have a greater chance (not 100% by any means though) of getting wrinkles before someone else who has not tanned. Stopping tanning now will minimize wrinkles in the future and you should also wear sun screen daily. They make some non greasy kind that is made for anti ageing.

Answer 4

In the same way some people get cancers and others don't (from engaging in the same activity) it all depends on how you've damaged key macromolecular structures within your skin and THAT is what will always be a complete unknown to you or anyone else.

Good that you have "seen the light" (for what it is) early enough. Hopefully, your age and diet will have protected you enough to avoid major issues (like cancer). But hope that a few wrinkles (premature or otherwise) are your only issues.

Good luck.

Answer 5

Unfortunately, most likely, but as with anything, the sooner you stop, the worse off you'll be. Once the elastic collagen in your skin has been damaged, it's almost impossible to repair. Make sure you drink a lot of water and take care of your skin as much as possible. Put on an SPF foundation, even when you're not planning on going to the beach. Make sure you apply it during the winter, too. People don't realize that the sun can be even more damaging in the dead of winter.

Answer 6

You really need to stop using them now and start using good skin care to prevent and repair the skin damage that may have been caused by years of tanning. You also need to stay out of the sun and use sunblock daily. Even stopping using sunbeds, won't prevent the damage that has already occured from years of tanning, but you can prevent more damage, by stopping now. I'd suggest using fake tan if you feel you need to be brown all the time. I'm sorry to say I am speaking from personal experience. I hope you will take my advice and start taking good care of your skin. Take care : )

Answer 7

Each time you lay down in that tanning bed you are equating yourself with a slab of beef on the grill. The only difference is that you are still alive and you should be kicking....to get out of the tanning bed.

Answer 9

despite you do, do no longer think of which you will lay in a tanning mattress for as long as you lay exterior. The UV rays emitted in tanning beds are soooo plenty greater beneficial than those given off by the solar. i think of I even have the comparable form of pores and skin tone you're describing. that's great dwindled, even with the shown fact that it does not burn fairly so rather as a purple head's does. I used to tan plenty, yet i finished because of the fact I found out much greater regarding the floor maximum cancers hazard. merely one TANNING consultation will develop YOUR hazard by "A stunning 20 %" (could difficulty of appeal magazine website 188) That being pronounced, It rather relies upon on the style of mattress which you employ. If that's a basic tanning mattress, and you have never used one earlier, alongside with your dwindled pores and skin. i could initiate off with 5 minutes merely to be risk-free. in case you are not getting burnt that element, i could initiate increasing it in one minute periods each and every time you bypass. in case you ever start to work out your pores and skin peeling, even however you do no longer burn, decrease decrease back on the quantity of time you spend interior the tanning mattress.

Answer 10

Everyone gets wrinkles; if you stop now, however, you will reduce the amount you may have had if you continued tanning.
