Safe Tanning

[tard_zone]

I have a few questions concerning the use of tanning beds. First off, I know they increase the risk of skin cancer. How often should one use a bed to recieve a tan and minimize cancer risks. I have been going 3 times a week, should I reduce the amount of times I go and increase the break between tanning sessions? Should I just stop tanning in general. I really like the tan I've got from tanning, but I'd rather be without a tan and cancer free, then look good with cancer.

Also, how do professional bodybuilders get a tan before comp? Because I seen a recent pic of Jay Cutler and he was very dark.

Pros use a fake tan product to get that dark look

Using tanning booths is pretty terrible for your skin. It almost doubles your risk of skin cancer.

Using melanotan II to tan may actually reduce your risk of developing skin cancer by increasing your skin's resistance to UV without actually requiring UV exporsure to induce the tan.

I have to agree with that...I started using Melanotan II about 2 months ago, last weekend the weather was great so my wife and I put the top down and went for a drive, I usually burn pretty easily. I was out in the sun for a couple of hours and I just got darker with no burn. This stuff really is great!

ok i just started looking this stuff up and it looks like 10 ml bottle, which I would assume would need to be injected, is this stuff legal?
