Cosmetic Procedures: Sun Exposure and Skin Cancer Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is the number-one cause of skin cancer, but UV light from tanning beds is just as harmful. Exposure to sunlight during the winter months puts you at the same risk as exposure during the summertime, because UVA rays are present in daylight.

"Fact or Fiction?: A ""Base Tan"" Can Protect against Sunburn" Getting a base tan from a tanning bed appears to be an even worse idea than preemptively exposing yourself to the sun.

Lighting and UV radiation: where do LEDs fit in? Mostly because UV radiation occupies that part of the electromagnetic spectrum that forces us to slather on sunscreen in periods of peak sunlight. In high doses, UV causes sunburns, cataracts, and skin cancer. You’re not likely to suffer such effects from most artificial light sources, although a recent move to phase out incandescent lamps in Canada led one federal government department to assess whether UV radiation from CFLs exceeded current exposure guidelines.

Radiation Therapy and Oral Care Redness of the skin and local loss of facial hair are common side effects of external beam radiation. Depending on skin texture, the dermatitis may form an outline of the radiation field. The practical significance is that the skin may be sensitive to pressure and neck positioning during dental treatment.

- Solar keratosis results from excessive exposure to ultraviolet light either from the sun or tanning beds, according to the Mayo Clinic. This excessive exposure interferes with the normal process of skin cell development, and causes discoloration and excess keratin buildup. These growths often appear as dry patches of skin. UV exposure also might influence development of sebhorreic keratosis.
