Know More About High Pressure Tanning Beds

By Gisela J. Watson

A new class of tanning beds, known as high pressure tanning beds, has been developed that enables users to get a dark tan in a short duration of time. These beds deliver much better results and are a lot safer than their low pressure counterparts.

The name high pressure tanning beds comes from the kind of lamps that are utilized in these tanning beds. With quartz as the primary material used in these lamps, they offer wattage as high as 1000. In a tanning bed, these lamps are fixed safely behind the glass filters. Rays of a fixed wavelength are allowed to pass through these glass filters which ultimately cause tanning. These lamps contain gas that is filled at a pressure that is higher than the atmospheric levels. It is due to the high pressure of this gas that these beds are referred to as high pressure tanning beds.

High pressure tanning beds obstruct a major portion of the ultraviolet B rays. They only allow a little portion of these UV rays to reach your skin, which is sufficient to excite the skin pigment cells. Since ultraviolet B rays are obstructed, it's just the ultraviolet A rays that at last reach your skin. So, you get that bronzed look without being put through any health hazards. To the contrary, low pressure tanning beds emit a much higher rate of ultraviolet B rays that reach your skin, meaning the risks are higher.

Also, a bonus feature which makes this tanning bed particularly popular is the short time duration required to get the tan- a considerably short period of time. 3 to five sessions of 20 minutes each can guarantee a natural looking base color. The blocking of the harmful ultraviolet B rays decreases any negative implications for the skin's higher layer epidermis. This allows the skin to keep moisture as well as the tan for a much longer duration. Also, the required maintenance for tans bought in the high pressure tanning beds is much lowers then that of the low pressure beds. Any tan you get with the assistance of the high pressure tanning bed can be kept by employing the bed for a mere twice to three times a month.

These tanning beds also save money and time, requiring a small 1st investment to supply a tan and afterward less effort and money to sustain it. Since they also filter out the ultraviolet B rays that cause sunburns, these tanning beds pose very low risk of skin cancers. Likewise, tanning in one of these beds will give you far better results, more golden brown color.

To sum up, high pressure tanning beds are a safe and a pocket friendly way to get that bronzed look. Considering their pros, these high pressure tanning beds are bound to be big in the tanning industry.
