What causes tanning and how does it affect the skin?

Tanning is caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or tanning beds. When the skin is exposed to UV rays, it produces more melanin, a pigment that darkens the skin to protect it from further damage. However, tanning is a sign of skin damage and can lead to premature aging, wrinkles, and an increased risk of skin cancer.


Can tanning even your skin tone?

It could appear so at first, but over time the skin damage it causes makes the skin more uneven. Alternatives to tanning are false tanning or trying some of that jerggins stuff or just being happy with your skin tone. If you do decide to tan, use sunscreen and don't go to tanning salons as they are even more damaging to skin than the sun itself because they concentrate straight UV rays to the skin.
