Tanning vs. Spray Tanning??

Did you know that up to 80% of Americans under the age of 25 think they look better with a tan? We all want to be tan this time of year.  A beautiful tan makes us look thinner, makes our muscles look more toned and shows off how much fun we've been having this summer! Unfortunately for to many people, getting that summer glow means hanging pool side for hours baking.  
There are only so many options out there when it comes to getting that perfect summer tan. But before you go out to the tanning booth or bake yourself in the sun, make sure to educate yourself on the effects of sun damage.
The sun contains two types of ultraviolet radiation to the skin. UVB rays and UVA rays.  UVB rays are the ones that cause sunburn. UVA rays are what tans the skin. UVA rays actually penetrate the epidermis and causes the melanocytes cells in your skin to produce melanin. Melanin is the pigment in skin caused from sun exposure and is actually the skins way of trying to protect itself from burning. 
Not only do UVA rays leave your skin looking bronzed, they also cause major, long lasting skin damage. This is because the UVA rays penetrate down into the dermis whereas UVB rays only affect the epidermis (which is why a tan lasts longer than a burn). The dermis contains the blood vessels and nerves and as a result to over exposure to UVA rays, damage can be caused to the immune system which leads to melanoma and other extremely dangerous forms of skin cancer.
Over 1 million new cases of skin cancer were diagnosed in the USA in 2010 alone ... many of which were found in individuals in their 20s!!! This is a major epidemic that is easily cured.
Cancer is not the only issue that goes along with sun exposure. The damaging rays of the sun will also prematurely age the skin and even eye problems such as cataracts.
Spray on tans have become a way for people to get that sun-kissed glow without the risks of UV rays and sun damage. They are perfect for getting a little color before a trip or a special event. Since the main ingredient, dihydroxyacetone or DHA, reacts with the keratin protein on the top layer of skin, the results are temporary and the chemical is never absorbed into the skin. This is why spray tans fade after a few days, because the darkened skin is naturally sloughed off. This is great compared to the alternative of tanning beds and natural sun, because the damage effects your skin long after you've been exposed to the harsh rays.
We want to keep you looking and actually being healthy ... both inside and out! 

Get that beautiful sun-kissed look without all the skin damage. Come in for a custom air brush spray tan here at Gallery Spa of Historic Roswell! Buy a package of 3 or more and receive 15% off!!
