Jan 10, 2013

Dr. Faek Jamali Surgery
A solarium is a booth in which ultraviolet light is projected onto the user.The U.S. Department of Health regards ultraviolet light to be the number one cancer causing agent in the world. This light is derived not only from the sun, but from a solarium as well.
Sunbathing and solarium both can lead to skin cancer should be avoided. The use of a high protection sunblock as well as a hat is highly recommended to avoid prolonged sun exposure.
