Although
tanning beds are more controlled than tanning outside in the sun, ultimately
all exposure to UV rays is potentially dangerous to the skin and can put you at
risk of skin cancer and premature aging.
For a safer way of tanning - look for sunless tanning products rather
than using tanning beds or laying on the beach for hours.
No - it's very different as outside, various objects block the direct rays of the sun and allow you to be outside in the sun for a lot longer. Tanning beds are very instense. You should not be on the bed for longer than 10-12 minutes for your first sessions and be very careful about adding extra time.
There are special indoor tanning lotions that supposedly are packed with vitamins and minerals and help speed up the tanning on a sunbed, which also helps you get better value for money from your session. I don't know if they are significantly different from tanning lotions that you buy for outdoor use. You should ask your pharmacist for advice.
Ultra violet
radiation (from either the sun or from tanning beds) can cause skin cell
damage. That damage can lead to premature aging such as; wrinkles, brown spots,
lax skin etc. Tanning salons may tell you otherwise but tanning beds really can
mess up your skin.
