Tanning outside or indoors can have dangerous consequences. While often associated with good health, the “glow” of a tan is the very opposite of healthy; it’s evidence of DNA injury to your skin. Tanning damages your skin cells and speeds up visible signs of aging.
Causes:
Tanning is caused by exposure to Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or tanning beds that causes genetic damage to cells on your outmost layer of skin.
This damage is cumulative, starting from the very first tan.
