CINCINNATI — Despite decades of warnings about the dangers of ultraviolet (UV) exposure, tanning is making a comeback among some young people.
Dr. Jonathan Webster, a dermatologist with St. Elizabeth, said tanning is often misunderstood.
“People think that because the sun makes UV light, getting it artificially through a tanning bed is a safe way to get it,” he said. “That’s not the case.”
