How to Learn The Truth About Tanning Beds?
Tanning beds have become extremely popular among teenage and young adults. Tanning beds are typically located in a tanning salon which charges a monthly rate and allows the customer to come into the salon, use the tanning bed multiple times a week and leave for a relatively low price. This has allowed young people to stay bronzed and appear sun kissed throughout the year, even in the frigid winter months. Teenagers and young adults are tanning salons biggest customers. Tanning beds and tanning salons are cause for concern though. There are many tanning beds that are not properly cleaned using the correct treatment methods and antibacterial cleansers. Tanning beds have been known to transport skin fungus to other people. If you choose to try out a tanning salon, inquire about their tanning beds and make sure they are cleaned properly and throughout the day. Tanning beds are infamous for causing skin cancer. People who start using tanning beds early in life are at a much greater risk for developing skin cancer than people who do not use tanning beds. If you choose to use a tanning bed, moderation is key to avoiding cancer. Tanning beds have been linked to improving the mood of people who suffer from seasonal depression. Seasonal depression happens to millions of people throughout the world and tanning beds have actually been recommended by doctors to assist in the treatment of seasonal depression. Tanning beds help treat seasonal depression by raising the melatonin levels in the human body. In the frigid, dark and nasty winter months the human body often does not get enough sunlight which can trigger seasonal depression. The ultraviolet rays in tanning beds are much stronger than those produced by the sun so a fifteen minute tanning session could be equal to an hour or more in the sun so use caution when laying a tanning bed. Tanning beds can damage your skin, cause skin cancer or create sun spots. If you use or are contemplating using a tanning bed understand the potential risk factors. Speak to your doctor before you join a tanning salon and use one of their tanning beds.
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.
