It\u2019s just beyond dispute.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Professional indoor tanning \u2014 with the operator gradually increasing exposure times based on the Fitzpatrick Skin Type of the tanner and using the guidelines of an exposure schedule \u2014 allows the fairest Skin Type II tanners to build melanin slowly over the course of several weeks before that melanin will start to oxidize and turn brown. Done correctly in a professional salon, this process works without inducing any sunburn in the tanner.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s virtually impossible to regulate exposure outdoors for a fair-skinned tanner \u2014 that\u2019s why so many sunburn outdoors but are able to build a tan indoors in a salon without burning,\u201d Levy said. \u201cAnd once they have melanin in their skin and have a tan, it multiplies the effectiveness of the sunscreen they wear when they do go outside. That\u2019s why we have so many clients who, after they build a tan in our salons, are able to enjoy outdoor activities without sunburning when they could not do so before, even if they wore sunscreen outdoors.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/smarttan.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/2012-03-27-Poll.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8528\" title=\"2012-03-27-Poll\" src=\"https:\/\/smarttan.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/2012-03-27-Poll.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"383\" height=\"192\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #666699;\"><em>SmartTan.com news articles regularly report medical and scientific information to keep you abreast of current events related to UV light.
