Machine tanning is a natural process of our skin that darkens its inner layer to “protect us from UV rays,” and this is how a tan is created. This tan is completely identical to a sun tan (yes, you also get Vitamin D here) and can last between three weeks to a month and a half. There are various shades in tanning accelerators for you to choose from, but it’s very important to understand that your primary shade will be your natural one. This tan is suitable for everyday use, events, vacations, photoshoots, and any purpose (not suitable for pregnant women). Machine tanning is recommended to start three weeks before the desired day to build a controlled, even, and high-quality tan.

In recent years, the tanning industry has gained a very bad reputation due to aggressive campaigns by major pharmaceutical companies worldwide. Let’s start by saying that controlled tanning is a very important part of our lives, because of the benefits Vitamin D provides to the human body. It’s a necessity, not just a recommendation.

Secondly, our body knows how to receive things in low and controlled doses. The moment we give it too much, it’s not good – just like anything else in life – if you do too much, it can be unhealthy! Therefore, it’s important to adhere to tanning rules designed to protect us.

Thirdly, and very importantly, when they say there’s a risk of this or that damage, if you compare it to cigarettes, alcohol, etc., it doesn’t even come close to 0.3% of that risk level.

Correct tanning differs from person to person; it’s important to understand the limitations. A fair-skinned person should tan two to three times a week during the first month, then reduce to a maximum of one tan per week.

A dark-skinned person doesn’t need more than one to two times a week during the first month, and then should switch to maintenance 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 deficiency of this vitamin, which is crucial for bones. The Ministry of Health currently emphasizes that a lack of this vitamin impairs bone quality, increases the risk of fractures, and can cause rickets in children. Therefore, the recommendation is to give infants Vitamin D from birth until one year of age.

2. Respiratory System
Several limited studies have shown that Vitamin D can protect the respiratory system, and taking the vitamin may reduce respiratory infections (colds) and decrease antibiotic use. It should be noted that there was also one study that failed to prove that the vitamin protects the respiratory system.

3. Diabetes
Several studies have shown a link between diabetes and low Vitamin D levels, but it is still not definitively clear whether there is a causal relationship between the two.

4. Heart Disease
Several studies have found a link between low Vitamin D levels and heart disease. However, it was found that extremely high levels of Vitamin D – above 60 nmol/L – do not protect the heart and were even found to increase the risk of heart disease. Another study that followed older women taking Vitamin D did not find that Vitamin D supplementation had a protective effect against heart disease.

5. Obesity
It appears that Vitamin D has some connection to obesity. It was found that obese women suffer from Vitamin D deficiency, and infants of women who suffered from Vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy were prone to childhood obesity. In women over 65, a link was found between normal Vitamin D levels and a healthy weight.

6. Cancer
Women who developed breast cancer and took Vitamin D, or did not have a Vitamin D deficiency, suffered less from breast cancer recurrence.

7. Neurological Function
It was found that mothers who suffered from Vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy were at increased risk of giving birth to a child with autism. Also, when mapping the rates of children with autism, it is observed that the incidence increases in areas with less sun exposure.

People suffering from Alzheimer’s disease also have low Vitamin D levels, and it has been proven that administering Vitamin D3 helps improve cognitive performance. It turns out that Vitamin D3 helps clear amyloid from the brain – the substance that accumulates in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients.

Furthermore, it was found that children born to mothers who suffered from Vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy developed less well verbally than children born to mothers with normal Vitamin D levels.

8. Stroke
Studies have shown that individuals with low Vitamin D levels are at a higher risk of suffering a stroke (a 25% increase in risk).

9. Multiple Sclerosis
Both low Vitamin D levels and low sun exposure in childhood are linked to an increased risk of developing multiple sclerosis.

10. Pain
Low Vitamin D levels likely increase sensitivity to pain in various conditions. A link has also been found between low Vitamin D levels and menstrual pain, muscle pain during breast cancer treatments, and knee pain in diseases involving cartilage wear in the knees.

11. Lung Disease
It turns out that Vitamin D deficiency impairs the effectiveness of treatment for asthma patients. Conversely, Vitamin D supplementation helps in recovery from tuberculosis.

12. Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
Women who suffer from Vitamin D deficiency or live in areas with little sun exposure are at an increased risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease.

13. Depression
Studies have indicated a link between depression and Vitamin D deficiency.

14. Food Allergy
Some studies have indicated a possible link between Vitamin D deficiency and food allergy.

15. Tooth Decay
Certain studies have shown that Vitamin D supplementation can help prevent tooth decay.

This is one of the most common questions we receive, so we wanted to clarify a few very important things for you.

• We work exclusively with the global brand HAPRO.
• All our equipment is identical across all branches.
• When we replace bulbs, we do it centrally for the entire branch to ensure uniformity.

In summary, there is no difference between the machines; all are equally powerful, all have their bulbs replaced at the same time, and we always balance them.

You cannot come for tanning day after day.
A very important rule – customer health comes first.
Therefore, daily tanning is not permitted.
For several reasons;

1. It’s not healthy for the body.
2. When you tan, the body undergoes a darkening process that takes up to 36 hours.
3. You need to let the body do its work and not overload it – doing so can cause more harm than good.

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

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

You can shower completely normally.

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

Only if using a tanning accelerator cream

you need to wait 4 hours before showering.

This is because the cream continues to work on the skin even after tanning.

Solar tanning is completely natural, just like sun tanning.

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

Of course, it slowly fades – everyone at their own pace. Naturally, people with a darker natural skin tone will retain their tan longer.

Conversely, fair-skinned people will lose their tan faster.

Tanning Before/After Laser Hair Removal

Laser works by focusing on dark hair follicles. When the surrounding skin is also dark, the laser can sometimes damage the skin layer and cause burns.

Therefore, laser clinics require at least a two-week (12-day) gap between a tanning session and a laser treatment.

After laser treatment, you can tan after 48 hours (once the skin pores close) and there will be no skin sensitivity.

Important to note and clarify

Today, there are advanced laser technologies that are more precise and can perform treatments even on dark skin. SHR and similar technologies – it is recommended to consult with the laser technicians you are working with to get an accurate answer.

Waxing After/Before Tanning

Waxing can be done before/after 48 hours from tanning.

Since the pores are open, the skin is sensitive, so you need to allow the skin to close before tanning.

Tanning and Tattoos

You can tan approximately one month after getting a new tattoo.

Important to note

Sun exposure (tanning) slowly fades tattoos, so it is recommended to use a protective product and apply it to tattooed areas to preserve the tattoo’s lifespan.

Is it allowed to use a tanning bed before or after a facial treatment?

First of all, it’s important to note that the interval before or after must be a minimum of 48 hours (two days) because during a facial treatment or tanning, our pores open and the skin becomes very sensitive. Therefore, it is recommended to allow the skin to calm down and the pores to close before performing a treatment/tanning.
