Patients have asked me before about whether the "newer" tanning beds are any safer. While I emphatically tell them "no", this article was able to provide data to support my "no". In addition, I found it helpful in the use of patient education that the authors studied the number of indoor tanning sessions most strongly associated with development of melanoma-- just 10 sessions was enough to increase your chances astronomically of developing melanoma. While not as strong as prospective long-term data, I thought this article was a great resource for more statistics and facts about melanoma that would be easily digestable to the lay patient population.
