How To Use A Tanning Bed After A Burn

Answer to how to use a tanning bed after a burn: Don't use a tanning bed, or lay in the sun. Period. End of story.

When you get a burn, you have damaged your skin and it needs time to heal. Depending on the severity it can take up to 2 weeks to completely heal. Ask your doctor.

Secondly, tanning on top of a burn is causing you more harm than good. If you burned in the first place you are not tanning properly. Tanning slowly and building up your base is the only way to do it.

Thirdly, tanning in a tanning bed after a burn is asking for trouble. If you want a fast track to skin cancer, this is it. This is why, in my opinion there is a high rate of skin cancer in older people. Back in the day they thought that using oil and lying in the sun all day was OK, even if they burn. Well, now they are paying the price.

One of the secrets to getting a nice tan is to start slow. You may not even see a difference in the first few sessions. That's good. By the end of the second week or third week you will. Use an indoor tanning lotion.

But, again here is how to use a tanning bed after a burn: DON'T!

So if you are wondering how to use a tanning bed after a burn, don't even think about it. Use burn relief gel, and/or aloe vera. Try a cool bath with Epson salt. But ask your doctor before taking any advice when treating a burn because it may be worse than you think.
