Tanning and your health

The sun, UV and tanning

The sun

The sun supplies various types of energy.Visible light enables us to see,

ultraviolet (UV) light gives us a tan and the infrared (IR) light in sunlight

provides the heat in which we like to bask.

UV and your health

Just as with natural sunlight, the tanning process will take some time.

The first effect will only become visible after a few sessions (see

'Tanning sessions: how often and how long?').

Overexposure to ultraviolet light (natural sunlight or artificial light from

your tanning appliance) can cause sunburn.

Besides many other factors, such as overexposure to natural sunlight,

incorrect and excessive use of a tanning appliance may increase the risk

of skin and eye problems.The degree to which these effects occur is

determined by the nature, intensity and duration of the exposure on

the one hand and the sensitivity of the person involved on the other

hand.

The more the skin and the eyes are exposed to UV light, the higher

the risk of keratitis, conjunctivitis, damage to the retina, cataracts,

premature skin ageing and the development of skin tumours will be.

Some medications and cosmetics increase the sensitivity of the skin.

◗ It is therefore highly important:

- that you follow the instructions given in the chapters 'Important' and

'Tanning sessions: how often and how long?';

- that the tanning distance (the distance between the appliance and

your face) is 10 cm;

- that you do not exceed the maximum number of tanning hours per

year (i.e. 25 hours or 1500 minutes);

- that you always wear the goggles provided while tanning.
