If you have gone to tanning beds and had sun exposure in the past but you have decided to stop it all will you still get skin cancer?
Most dermatologists (skin doctors) will tell you that sun (UV) exposure is cumulative, and once you hit a certain point you get skin cancer. That point is different for everybody. Light skinned, blonde, blue eyed, freckles all add risk and lower the amount of acceptable accumulation. i think tanning by the sun can not cause skin cancer but tanning beds can because the sun gives you vitamin D
