sunbed, tanning

Why to use a sunbed?

The most obvious benefit of a sunbed is a great looking tan, which makes clients feel good about themselves. If compared to spray tanning, a tan developed in a sunbed is definitely longer lasting and gives a more natural colour, perfectly harmonized with your skin tone.

It's important to expose yourself to UV radiation as it helps the body synthesize Vitamin D. Nicknamed the “sunshine vitamin”, it plays a vital role in various body processes - maintains bone density, regulates the insulin level in diabetes management, supports your brain, as well as the nervous and immune system.Tanning affects the functioning of your whole body – it can reduce pain and lower blood pressure. It's also been shown that exposure to UV radiation can help manage skin conditions such as acne or psoriasis.

Your natural tan also helps protect your skin, it works like a low SPF lotion. It's well known that exposure to sunlight and UV  radiation causes an increase in serotonin levels and releases endorphins that make people feel good.

If used correctly, sunbeds can help stay healthy but also keep skin fresh and smooth - Red Light hybrid technology for indoor tanning helps prevent new wrinkles and reduces existing ones.

Regulations govern the maximum UV output of sunbeds. It is referred to as 0.3 W/m2 and is the limit for effective irradiance approved by the EU and consumer safety regulations. 0.3 tanning sessions will be kind to your skin and the risk of over-exposure or burning is eliminated, leaving you with a deep, long-lasting and natural tan.
