Golden Key · 03-25-2002, 10:21 AM

O.k we all have taken the test, and know you cant make a medical statement about the benefits of tanning, but one of my customers only comes here to tan his legs. Why ? I asked. He told me his doctor reffered him to my salon to cure his phsoriosis ( how ever you spell it ) Well That seems to be a medical statment to me. Just thought I neede to share that.

We have a couple of customers that referred for acne treatments. They were told by their dermatologist that tanning regularly for limited amounts of time would cure a back acne problem.

Key, I know it happens all the time. I have quite a few people who tan just for that reason. And it helps them... But we can't claim it...lol

hospitals use only booth style for hygienic reasons and well as eveness of coverage....check with your local hospital.
you can look this up on web web as well, you will NEVER find bed uv treatment exposure in hospitals, only booth style......sorry if it upsets you.

with skin disorders that may involve breaks in the skin, no contact with a pubic ligting surface is best.

they come in uva as we know it and uva/uvb controled versions

The PUVA Combi Light Cabin provides radiation treatment for all around the body due to the combination of UV-A/B. It is possible to do a UV-A or a UV-B radiotherapy or a combination of both. The cabin is equipped with 48 lamps of which are 32 UV-A lamps and 16 special UV-B lamps, or 48 UV-A lamps. The PUVA Combi Light Cabin is equipped with one central measure and control unit for UV-A and UV-B. Due to the continuously light measurement, it is possible to give the measure for UV-A or UV-B in joule/cm² or in time:sec.

You can read the treatment time on a digital control panel in all major European languages. There is also a memory for the rest of treatment time by radiation interrupt.

The cabin is equipped with 8 built-in low-noise ventilators and one air fan, that can be switched on and off, to cool the body. The PUVA Combi Light Cabin is delivered with an adapted computer control program, PUVA Control Center.
