tanning beds?

Question

i go once a week for 10 min at a time how bad do think it is

it is for a medical condition

Answer 1

Once a week for only ten minutes? That isn't bad at all I think you'll be fine as long as u don't do it everyday. I tan 2-3 days a week for 15 minutes.

Answer 2

Well, of course it isn't quite the healthiest thing to do.=) but once a week isn't that bad. I know people who go 4 times a week. You should make sure that you buy the tanning lotions that protect you. I think you should use the orbit because I hear that it has a lower chance of giving you skin cancer than a tanning bed does. Maybe if you tan once a week for the rest of your life, it might be a tad bit dangerous.

But all in all...

At least you have a good tan!

Answer 3

your fine dont worry so much. my boyfriend has a skin condition and the dermatologist tells him to go tanning and it actually does work. i use to go tanning every day for 20 minutes a day for 30 days straight and then some and im okay.. i wouldnt worry about it. if cancer runs in your family then maybe ask your doctor what he/she thinks but in the mean time i wouldnt worry its not like your cooking yourself. just dont go overboard.

Answer 4

it depends if you go every week of every month...but either way its not that great for you because any sort of sun exposure causes your skin to age and can cause harmful effects later on in life. right now its not that bad but later on it could be

Answer 5

im sorry but the more you go the closer you are to getting some form of skin cancer. i cannot express how bad it is for your skin.........
its not about how many times you go its about how sensitive your skin is to the UV rays

Answer 6

your exposing yourself to ultraviolet rays, which leads to skin cancer...i'll let you conclude the answer...

Answer 7
