Fluorescent lamps emit ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which can potentially have harmful effects on the skin, particularly for individuals who are sensitive to UV exposure or have certain skin conditions. Prolonged exposure to UV light from fluorescent lamps may increase the risk of skin damage, including premature aging and skin cancer. However, the levels of UV radiation emitted by standard fluorescent lamps are generally low and not considered a significant risk for most people. It's advisable to limit direct exposure to fluorescent lighting for extended periods, especially for those with heightened sensitivity.

Is the exposure to a tanning lamp the same as exposure to the sun?

Tanning lamps are just as bad for your skin as prolonged exposure to the sun. Tanning lamps emit the same Ultra violet rays that can lead to wrinkles, premature aging, and skin cancer. Tanning lamps allow you to control your exposure to UVA rays, unlike out door tanning. However, tanning lamps can be two to three times more powerful than outside exposure to the sun. For information on the risks of tanning go to the FDA Risks of Tanning.
