Using or starting to use sunbeds before the age of 35 years, increases the risk of malignant melanoma and almost doubles this risk. Tanning salons contribute significantly to the rates of skin cancer in the UK and the age at which people are legally allowed to use sunbeds should be increased from 18 to 21 with advice and education about the potential risks it comes with looking tanned.
Even one sunbed session can increase your risk of developing squamous cell skin cancer by 67% and basal cell skin cancer by 29%.
