FAQ

Machine tanning – a natural action of our skin that tans the inner layer of the skin to “protect us from the UV rays” and this is how the tan is actually created – this tan is exactly the same as the sun (yes, you also get vitamin D here) and can last between three weeks for a month and a half. There are all kinds of shades in tanning boosters of your choice but it is very important to understand that the main shade will be your natural shade. This tan is suitable for everyday use, events, vacations, photos and for any purpose (not suitable for pregnant women). Machine tanning is recommended to start three weeks before the desired day in order to build a controlled, uniform and quality tan.

In recent years, the field of tanning has gotten a very bad name, due to aggressive campaigns by the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies. Let’s start by saying that controlled tanning is a very important part of our lives, because of the things that vitamin D gives the human body. This is mandatory and not recommended.

Secondly, our body knows how to accept things in low and controlled doses, as soon as we give it too much it is not good – as in everything in life – if we do too much it can be unhealthy! That’s why it’s important to follow the rules of tanning that are meant to protect us.

A third and very important thing, when they say that there is a risk of harm of one kind or another, if you compare it to cigarettes, alcohol, etc., it does not even come close to the 00.3 percent level of risk.

18 years old and above only.

Correct tanning differs from person to person, it is important to understand the limitations – a light-skinned person should tan between two and three times a week in the first month, after that drop to one tan a week at most.

A dark person needs no more than once twice a week for the first month and then switch to once a week.

1. Bones
Vitamin D is essential for bones and reduces fractures. The vitamin was discovered in 1922, when researchers noticed that rickets was caused by a lack of this vitamin, which is essential for bones. The Ministry of Health currently emphasizes that a lack of the vitamin causes damage to bone quality and an increased risk of fractures and may cause rickets in children. Therefore, the recommendation is to give the baby vitamin D from birth to one year of age.

2. The respiratory system
Some limited studies have shown that vitamin D can protect the respiratory system, and that taking the vitamin may reduce respiratory infections (colds) and reduce the use of antibiotics. It should be noted that there was also one study that failed to prove that the vitamin protects the respiratory system.

3. Diabetes
Some studies have shown a link between diabetes and a low level of vitamin D, but it is not yet clear for sure whether there is a causal relationship between the two.

4. Heart disease
Some studies have found a link between a low level of vitamin D and heart disease. However, it turned out that extremely high levels of vitamin D – over 60 nmol/liter – do not protect the heart and it even turned out that they increase the risk of heart disease. Another study that followed older women who took vitamin D did not find that taking vitamin D had a protective effect against heart disease.

5. Obesity
Vitamin D seems to have some connection to obesity. It was found that obese women suffer from vitamin D deficiency, and babies of women who suffered from vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy were also prone to obesity in childhood. In women over the age of 65, a relationship was found between a normal level of vitamin D and a normal weight.

6. Cancer
Women who had breast cancer and took vitamin D, or did not have vitamin D deficiency, had less breast cancer recurrence.

7. Neurological function
It was found that mothers who suffered from vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy were at an increased risk of giving birth to a baby who would suffer from autism. Even when you map the rates of children with autism, you see that the incidence increases in areas where there is less sunlight.

People who suffer from Alzheimer’s disease also have a low level of vitamin D, and it has been shown that giving vitamin D3 helps improve cognitive performance. It turns out that vitamin D3 helps clean the amyloid in the brain – the same substance that accumulates in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients.

In addition, it became clear that children born to mothers who suffered from vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy developed less well in the verbal domain than children born to mothers whose vitamin D levels were normal.

8. Stroke
Studies have shown that those who suffer from a low level of vitamin D are at a higher risk of having a stroke (a 25% increase in risk).

9. Multiple sclerosis
Both a low level of vitamin D and low exposure to the sun in childhood are associated with an increased risk of having multiple sclerosis.

10. pains
A low level of vitamin D probably increases the sensitivity to pain in various situations. A link was also found between a low level of vitamin D and period pain, muscle pain in breast cancer treatments and knee pain in diseases of the erosion of the cartilage in the knees.

11. Lung disease
It turns out that a lack of vitamin D affects the effectiveness of the treatment of asthma patients. On the other hand, giving vitamin D helps to recover from tuberculosis.

12. Inflammatory bowel diseases
Women who are deficient in vitamin D or live in areas with little sunlight are at increased risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease.

13. Depression
Studies have indicated the existence of a relationship between depression and lack of vitamin D.

14. Food allergy
There are studies that have indicated a possible link between vitamin D deficiency and food allergy.

15. Tooth decay
Some studies have shown that vitamin D supplementation can help prevent tooth decay.

One of the most common questions we receive, so we wanted to sort it out for you and clarify some very important things.

And to sum up, there is no difference between the machines, they are all the same power, they all change bulbs at the same time and we always balance them.

It is not possible to get a tan day after day
A very important rule – customer health comes first.
Therefore, it is not possible to tan day after day.
For several reasons;

It is not healthy for the body.
As soon as you tan, the body performs a browning procedure that takes up to 36 hours.
You have to let the body do its thing and not overload it – it can only cause harm rather than benefit.

We are aware that 99% of the places in Israel do not enforce this – we consider it a very serious matter.

No exceptional authorization will be given to any customer under any circumstances.

You can shower normally.

There is no connection between showering and tanning, tanning is subcutaneous (under the skin).

Only if you use a tan accelerator cream

You have to wait 4 hours before showering.

For the reason that the cream continues to work on the skin even after tanning.

The solar tan is a completely natural tan, just like in the sun.

Can last on the skin for a month and a half and more if you stop tanning completely.

Of course, it slowly fades – everyone at their own pace, probably people who are darker in their natural tone, their tan will last longer.

On the other hand, light-skinned people will lose their tan faster.

Tanning before/after laser hair removal

The laser works in such a way that it focuses on dark hair follicles, when the surrounding skin is even twice as dark, the laser can damage the layer of the skin and cause a burn.

That’s why the laser salons require at least two weeks (12 days) difference between tanning treatment and laser treatment.

After the laser treatment, you can tan already after 48 hours (after the pores in the skin have closed) and there will be no sensitivity in the skin.

It is important to note and clarify

Today there are modern laser technologies that know how to be more precise and perform treatments even when the skin is dark. SHR and the like – it is recommended to consult with the technicians of the laser you are doing in order to get an accurate answer.

Wax after/before tanning

Wax treatment can be done before/after 48 hours of tanning.

Since the pores are open, the skin is sensitive, so you have to let the skin close and only then tan.

Tanning and tattoos

You can get a tan about a month after getting a new tattoo.

It is important to note

Exposure to the sun (tanning) slowly fades the tattoos, therefore it is recommended to use a protective product and apply it to the areas with the tattoos and thus preserve the longevity of the tattoo.

האם מותר לעשות שיזוף במכונה לפני או אחרי טיפול פנים ?

אז קודם כל חשוב לציין שההפרש לפני או אחרי חייב להיות מינימום 48 שעות (יומיים) מהסיבה שבמהלך טיפול פנים או שיזוף הנקבוביות שלנו נפתחים והעור הופך לרגיש מאוד, לכן מומלץ לתת לעור להירגע ולנקבוביות להיסגר ורק לאחר מכך לבצע טיפול\שיזוף.
