Apr 24, 2016

Dr. Maya Halabi-Tawil Dermatology
First of all you should not tan at all, there is this culture Where People think it s prettier to be tanned, it s all Over magazines and posters, sun kissed faces and bodies, but no one knows That when you tan, your skin has already been agressed By the UV light, there is already sun damage That Will lead to earlier skin ageing, Brown spots, and most of all there is a Risk of having all type of skin cancers. The Risk is even bigger with solarium, That deliver UV doses That are 12 Times more concentrated than the sun and They have been banned in France for exemple . Tanning is a dangerous habit, white is beautiful too!!!
Second, you should définitely not do Lazer treatments when your skin is tanned as It can lead to skin discolorations.
