The primary cause of skin cancer is excessive sun exposure. Sun lamps and tanning booths can also cause skin cancer. Tans are caused by harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or tanning lamps, and if you have one, you've sustained skin cell damage.
No matter what you may hear at tanning salons, the cumulative damage caused by UV radiation can lead to premature skin aging (wrinkles, lax skin, brown spots, and more), as well as skin cancer. Indoor ultraviolet (UV) tanners are 74 percent more likely to develop melanoma than those who have never tanned indoors.
So regular visitors to the tanning salon are putting themselves at risk of further complications in the future.
