Alarming new research has shown that cancer risk has almost trebled in the past decade thanks to increasingly powerful sunbeds. These results come from a survey from the Ninewells Hospital and Medical School which tested 133 sunbeds at 50 different premises, including beauty and tanning salons, leisure centres and video shops. 83% of these exceeded the ultraviolet (ud) radiation guidelines, which is the more common cause of skin cancer. So, ban the tan. If you absolutely must have a tan then keep your skin safe and hit the tanning bottle.
