Skin tanning devices linked to higher skin cancer risk
Scientific reports have indicated that artificial tanning devices that use ultraviolet rays significantly increase the risk of skin cancer, particularly melanoma. Studies have confirmed that these devices are classified as carcinogenic substances in Group 1, and their use causes damage to skin cells, premature aging, wrinkles, and potential eye injuries. Specialists warn against relying on dietary supplements or products promoted on social media claiming to protect or make tanning safer, emphasizing that prevention through avoiding tanning devices and excessive sun exposure is the most effective way to reduce the risk of skin cancer. They also stress the importance of using protective measures such as sunscreen and wearing protective clothing, especially for sensitive groups like young people and those with fair skin, along with the importance of early detection of any skin changes.
