Question

Mileena then tells you that she has used a tanning booth once per week for the past several years, and that the tanning salon advertise it as safe. What do you tell her about
the salon's claim? How does any UV exposure affect keratinocytes and melanocytes? Explain

Answer 1

Answer:

I tell her that excessive use eventually leads to diseases and tumors.

Explanation:

Excessive sun tanning for years can lead to skin cancer and skin tumors. The salon's claim is that if you don't use it too much then it is safe. Since excessive tanning over time destroys the skin cells, she can eventually die an early death of soaking up UV rays.

Answer 2

When UV beds came out they claimed that they only put off good UV rays! There is no such thing. Tanning Beds are bad all the way around. People should wear sun block when exposed to UV light even if it’s from beds and who wants to try and tan with sun block on! I once knew a lady that wanted to get great tan before prom, so she went every day for three weeks straight but what we didn’t know was she was going a second time per day in another town. She later died because the tanning bad cooked her liver, kidneys and pancreas. Not safe!!!! AT ALL!!!!
