Best Answer

The purpose of a tanning bed is to give you a tan. Tanned skin is damaged skin - any dermatologist (or doctor of any kind) will verify that. The more often and deeply you tan, the greater your risk form skin cancer later in life. Tanning - in a tanning bead or elsewhere - cannot be said to "give you cancer", but it unquestionably increases your risk of developing skin cancer.
