You have 10 minutes to…

• Read through page 4 (skin exam page)• Answer the questions on page 3• If you would like to download the Dr. Mole

app, feel free to try it!– Keep in mind – this does NOT take the place of a

dermatologist, nor is it 100% accurate! You should still be conscious of your own skin and keep track of your moles with your eyes!

• Is ‘sunless tanning’ (spray tan) the same as regular tanning? – No

• Tanning outside/ in a tanning bed exposes you to UV radiation which can change the DNA in your skin!

• Sunless tanning deposits DHA on the top layer of your skin.

• You should consider using sunblock no matter what, ESPECIALLY with a ‘sunless tan.’ Some studies suggest that you may be more at risk for UV exposure (sun burns, poisonings, etc) if you have DHA in your skin

Tanning beds use UVA and/or UVB rays. The more “expensive” beds use more of UVA and less of UVB. If you do tan (and please please

don’t – you are beautiful just the way you are!!!), which rays are more likely to cause

cancer?

Your skin produces collagen, which gives your skin smoothness and elasticity. As you age, collagen production decreases, leading to wrinkles, and that “leathery” look. Tanning can cause the collagen to break down even faster, causing more wrinkles at an earlier age. This occurs when the UV radiation penetrates deeper in your skin. Which penetrates more deeply into your skin – UVA or UVB?

• So, either way, are there cosmetic and/or life threatening consequences with indoor tanning? –YES!

Page 13: How many risk factors did you check?

• If you do choose to tan indoors, take these steps to reduce your risk:

• Remember, all UV radiation is potentially hazardous• Start slowly. Always follow the manufacturer’s

recommended exposure schedule. (If you look on the tanning bed itself, you will notice that it gives you a schedule that does not exceed 3-4x a week!)

• Never tan everyday! (3x a week is all the FDA has approved!) Your skin needs time to recover from UV exposure.

• Wear protective eyewear that meets FDA specifications.• After a tan is developed, tanning once every week, or

even every two weeks, should be sufficient to maintain your tan.

Page 14: How many risk factors did you check?

• If you do choose to tan indoors, take these steps to reduce your risk:

• If you are taking medications, ask your doctor or pharmacist if they are potentially photosensitizing. If so, do not tan!

• Children and teens may have greater risk for skin cancer from UV exposure, so they should be especially careful to minimize UV exposure and burns.

• Understand WHY you are at risk – some studies have shown that tanning can be addictive because it can trigger the same areas of your brain that are linked to drug and alcohol dependence. This explains why so many people regular ‘tanorexic’ or ‘addicted to tanning.’

• Stopping 5-10 minutes before the end of class for a clicker exit

• Check in at stop signs! We ARE NOT going over this as a class

• A few years ago, pilots argued they should be allowed to bypass the body-imaging scanners at checkpoints. Why do you think they made this argument?

• Why can't you use visible light to "see" any of the objects in #23-25?

• Light used to "see" an object must have a wavelength about the same size as or smaller than the object.

• Visible light is BIGGER than those objects! You need UV light or smaller wavelengths!
