Could this be some type of skin cancer? |
I used to go tanning quite often.. but now I limit myself about 1-3 times per week. I do have a lot of little "beauty marks" on my upper arms. They are very small and brown, but I don't call them moles simply because they don't raise above the skin, lol. Once or twice a week really isn't that often. I understand that UV rays are harmful, but isn't it about the same if you were to go to the beach friday & saturdays? Tanning is sooooo bad for you. Yes, it is the same as going the beach, unprotected without sunscreen twice a week, which is also soooooo bad for you. Do you understand what a tan is? You have these little cells in your skin called melanocytes. they produce the pigment melanin, which gives your skin it's color. Darker skinned people have more melanocytes. A tan is the result of melanocytes bursting and releasing their pigment as they die. Pretty gross, huh... A tan is actually the 'guts' of your dead cells... So, quit tanning, wear sunscreen, I promise, you will look better with your natural skin color and be much healthier! And don't forget... tanning causes wrinkles. I have friends in their mid-twenties who look like they are in their early forties because of tanning. You need to see a dermatologist. You have been tanning entirely too often. Tanning beds are NOT a safeguard against skin cancer, in fact, they have been shown to INCREASE the incidence. Just because a mole is not raised above the skin doesn't mean it's not a mole. And the pink edges are a red flag. Get to a Dr. and stop tanning. The skin cancer warning signs source below may help. |
