I go in the typical lay down bed for 15 minutes now and am going 5 days a week and every now and again I go in the upright to hit the spots that are in a shadow zone.

YOu want to make sure that they get the most exposure to UVB lights it will be the most effecitve. I have been tanning now for barely over a month and am almost completely cleared up. All I have to say is thank you for tanning beds. It would have cost me a fortune at the dr's office
Doctors have been treating skin disorders with tanning beds since day 1 of the tanning industry. The first tanning beds were invented by doctors for doctors. That is why they are classified as medical devices. This is well known by the medical industry and specifically dermatologists. But very few people in the public or the tanning industry know this. That is why it is so easy for the hypocritical medical industry to slander the indoor tanning industry. Their goal is to eliminate indoor tanning at reasonable prices so that they can turn UV light into a "medical procedure" administered by doctors at 10 times the price.
