High-altitude sun - CAUTION - Ultraviolet (UV) and infrared radiation. Please observe instructions for use. UV and infrared radiation from studio tubes carries with it a number of health risks and can cause, among other things, cancer, premature skin aging, burns, injuries to the eyes, cataracts, a weakening of the immune system, allergic reactions and injuries to the vascular system. Pregnant women and persons taking prescription or over-the-counter pharmaceuticals should consult their physicians prior to tanning in a studio. The simultaneous ingestion of such medications as sedatives, antibiotics, diuretics or lower blood pressure medications, anti-neo-plastics or contraceptives can lead to the development of sunburn more quickly because such pharmaceuticals increase the skinÔs sensitivity to light. The same applies to cosmetics. UV radiation can accelerate the aging process of your skin and increase the risk of skin cancer, for instance squamous cell carcinoma or basal cell carcinoma. Your skin cancer risk is greater the more often you are exposed to UV radiation. Those who do not tan under direct sunlight will usually not tan in a tanning studio either and, in addition, such persons will also expose themselves to a greater danger of experiencing the detrimental effects of tanning lamps. If you do not tan in direct sunlight, then you should avoid tanning lamps. UV exposure in childhood is suspected of favouring the formation of melanoma in adulthood. Therefore, children should not use tanning studios without check-ups by a physician.
NEVER TAN WITHOUT USING SUITABLE PROTECTION FOR YOUR EYES (UV PROTECTIVE EYEWEAR)! WITHOUT EFFECTIVE EYE PROTECTION, YOU RUN THE RISK OF SERIOUS BURNS TO THE EYE OR A LONGER TERM IMPAIRMENT OF VISION!
Use tanning lamps ONLY with a timer and in conformity with instructions from the manufacturers of both the equipment and the lamps, also in proper consideration of your skin type. Before installing the lamps or switching out the tubes, take all appropriate safety precautions and observe the instructions of the manufacturers of the tanning equipment and the light sources used.
