The Surprising Benefits of Tanning Beds?
Everybody is aware of the dangers of tanning beds. Just like excessive sun exposure, spending too much time in a tanning bed can lead to skin cancer and other problems. However, tanning beds do not quite deserve the bad reputation they have received. In fact, there are some surprising benefits of moderate usage of tanning beds. One of the major benefits of using a tanning bed is boosting the body’s production of vitamin D. People who spend too much time indoors can suffer from a vitamin D deficiency. This can eventually lead to osteoporosis and various types of cancer. The ultraviolet rays in tanning beds can also help improve certain skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis and even acne. Getting a base tan in a tanning bed can also offer the skin natural protection from sunburn, but this does not mean additional sunscreen should not be used during long days in the sun. The benefits of tanning beds are not only physical. There are also mental and emotional benefits of tanning. Many users report feeling good after a tanning session. Tanning beds are also suggested as one way to treat Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD. This is a disorder in which people feel depression during the winter months when there is less daylight. Short periods of time under ultraviolet rays can help improve the mood of SAD patients. While reaping the benefits of tanning beds, it is very important to protect the skin. Using a sunscreen with SPF 25 or higher is recommended for those who want to minimize skin damage. Be sure to apply it liberally all over the body and face and use a sunscreen spray for the scalp as well. Eye protection is a must. Also, never spend more time in the bed than recommended by the manufacturer or salon. When used cautiously, tanning beds do provide some benefits to consumers but it is very important not to overdo it and to visit a dermatologist regularly for melanoma screening.
Will a tanning bed cook your insides?
No, Tanning beds use UV-A or UV-B rays. These rays are short in length and do not have the power to reach your insides. All though prolonged exposure to a tanning bed can kill you, it is because of the "toxins" created by cellular breakdown that have to be filtered out by your internal organs. This however, would take hours if not days of continuous exposure.

Can contact lenses melt in a tanning bed?
No. Don't overdo the tanning bed. You can get skin cancer and die early. In the UK it is considered that over 100 people die every year from overuse of tanning beds. The answer is: absolutely yes! I met a lady, yesterday, at a department store, who sold hair products. She had one bright red eye. Starting a conversation I found out that she had both contact lenses melt onto her eyeballs in a tanning bed. She had neither a significant tan, nor was her face reddened, so the session could not have been excessively long. She was able to get one lens off, but the other one was still attached after three days. She did visit an eye doctor after two days, but he apparently was not going to attempt anything jeopardizing her eye. My guess is a chemical reaction of the UV light with the plasticizer in the lens plastic causing it to disintegrate. However, the lens manufacturers could answer this, but they won't for fear of law suits, with such an admission. Yes I do believe it can melt your contact lences. I remember watching a show about it on tv when a girl wore her contact lences into a tanning bed and it melted onto her eye and so she is now forever blind in that eye. But even if I am wrong its better to be safe than sorry and just take out your lences when u use tanning beds. But just to let you know tanning beds are very risky just by using a tanning bed once in your teen years you raise your chances of getting melanoma, the deadlist form of skin cancer, 75% research tanning beds before you decide to use them because what seems like a great idea now you might seriously regret later on in life.
What is a tanning salon?
A sunless tanning booth is a small room where the client tans by either receiving a spray tan or by using a tanning bed. Tanning beds are controversial, particularly for their use among teens, because of concerns about the risk of developing skin cancer from their use. While the tanning beds used to work using UVB rays, salon owners switched to using beds that emit UVA rays, believing them to be safer. Sadly, it is UVA rays that are associated with development of skin cancer. Another kind of sunless tanning booth is much safer: The tanning spray booth. Currently, spray tans are found at high-end salons and can run up to $100 for a few one-hour sessions. A sunless tanning booth that uses spray instead of a tanning bed works via use of a spray containing dihydroxyacetone (DHA.) DHA is applied in a fine mist to the entire body of the customer. DHA reacts with dead skin cells on the surface of the body, causing them to turn brown. Most tanners who use the spray method report good, realistic results and excellent coverage. The spray-on tans last five to seven days, typically. Currently, there are two sunless tanning booths on the market. Though both booths use a spray technique to evenly coat the body. The drops work as little magnets, collecting on the body and repelling other drops so the tan lays evenly on the skin. The equipment spray the formula for 14 seconds on each side of the body, tanners can achieve a dark, tan appearance without ultraviolet rays."
