  1. Frostycat - Look, sunbeds are known to cause cancer. Ask yourself, would you rather waste 80 euros or get cancer? It's a no-brainer. Don't use it any more. When you're 50 or 60, dying of melanoma, how will you feel about those 80 euros then??? You won't get cancer after 11 minutes, but each time you use it, you're more likely to get it.

  2. Spreedog - The vast majority of skin cancers are cured with simple local incision.
    Most are basal cell or squamous cell which rarely spread.
    Only melanomas are dangerous to life
    - 3100 deaths in females in the entire USA in 2009.
    I am a cancer specialist doctor, and I use tanning beds sparingly.
    Eleven minutes is nothing as far as risk.
    Life has risks. Don't worry about this one.
    Riding in a car is more dangerous at age 16.
