Tanning and your health
The sun, UV and tanning
The sun
The sun supplies various types of energy.Visible light enables us to see, ultraviolet (UV) light gives us
a tan and the infrared (IR) light in sunrays provides the heat in which we like to bask.
UV and your health
Just as with natural sunlight, the tanning process will take some time.The first effect will only become
visible after a few sessions (see 'Tanning sessions: how often and how long?').
Overexposure to ultraviolet light (natural sunlight or artificial light from your tanning appliance) can
cause sunburn.
Besides many other factors, such as overexposure to natural sunlight, incorrect and excessive use of
a tanning appliance may increase the risk of skin and eye problems.The degree to which these
effects occur is determined by the nature, intensity and duration of the exposure on the one hand
and the sensitivity of the person involved on the other hand.
