The Truth About Sunbeds


Dispelling Myths Around Indoor Tanning

With the summer months approaching, the UK sunbed industry aims to educate the public on responsible tanning practices. The Sunbed Association (TSA) emphasizes the importance of understanding UV exposure, tanning, and sunbed use to promote safe practices.

The Evolution of Sunbed Industry

TSA highlights the transformation of the sunbed industry over the years, with professional and well-regulated operators ensuring customers can tan responsibly without the risk of burning. Today’s sunbeds are designed to provide controlled exposure to UV light, promoting safe tanning practices.

The Benefits of UV Exposure

While sunbathing is often discouraged, moderate exposure to UV light is essential for vitamin D production, which is crucial for maintaining healthy bones, teeth, and muscles. Sunbeds were originally created to address vitamin D deficiency in regions with limited sunlight.

Debunking Common Myths

TSA refutes misconceptions about sunbeds emitting excessively high UV levels compared to natural sunlight. It emphasizes that sunbed operators can regulate UV exposure to prevent overexposure, ensuring a safe tanning experience.

Sunbeds and Skin Cancer

TSA dismisses claims linking sunbed use to an increased risk of melanoma, citing scientific reviews that found such studies to be flawed. It asserts that professional compliant sunbeds, when used in moderation and under supervision, do not pose a significant risk of skin cancer.

Guidelines for Safe Tanning

TSA advocates for responsible tanning practices, recommending professional supervision and adherence to regulation guidelines when using sunbeds. While tanning can be a natural response to UV exposure, burning should always be avoided.

Who Should Avoid Sunbeds

Not everyone is suitable for sunbed use, including individuals under 18, those with sensitive skin, medical conditions, or a history of skin cancer. TSA advises caution and moderation when considering sunbed use.
