Brief exposure after a manicure would require multiple visits for potential DNA damage and the risk of cancer with the usage of higher wattage ultra violet (UV) lamps at nail salons
Living Alone Linked With High Skin Cancer Death Risk
Men who live alone face a higher risk of death from skin cancer melanoma compared with men who live with a partner, claims new study.
Men who live alone face a higher risk of death from skin cancer melanoma compared with men who live with a partner, claims new study.
Higher-wattage light sources were correlated with higher UV-A irradiance emitted.
"Our data suggest that, even with numerous exposures, the risk for carcinogensis, remains small. That said, we concur with previous authors in recommending use of physical blocking sunscreens or UV-A protective gloves to limit the risk of carcinogenesis and photoaging."
