Why You Should Choose Platinum Tan

Let Us Help You Tan Your Skin Properly

At Platinum Tan Inc, we understand that tanning is a natural phenomenon that works the same whether you tan indoors or outdoors. The advantage you will have with our sunbeds is complete control over both the intensity of the rays and the duration of the session.

When properly applied, indoor tanning results in minimizing the risk of sunburn and helps you avoid an uneven tan.

How Sunbeds Work to Give You an All-Over Tan

Both summer sunlight and most sunbeds produce UV rays at pretty much the same levels - 92% UVA and 8% UVB - and that exposure promotes tanning.

Sunbeds, however, are about two to four times as intense as summer sunlight, so you need to stay in for less time to achieve a tan. 

Tanning takes place as the melanin in your skin darkens after exposure to UVA light and fades as your surface skin cells wear away.  It can take 3-10 tanning sessions to build enough melanin to see your results.  

Since everyone's skin is different, everyone tans differently. At Platinum Tan, we will conduct a complete evaluation of your skin using the Smart Tan Skin Type System™ and help you develop your exposure plan accordingly.

Our skin care consultants will also direct you toward rotating equipment use and using the right skin care products to achieve the best results possible while avoiding sunburns.

Vitamin D Made Here With UVB

Vitamin D - the "sunshine vitamin" - is produced when you are exposed to UVB rays. Although you do not need to become tan for you to produce vitamin D, for most people use of a sunbed will lead to vitamin D production.

A suntan helps protect your skin from sunburn as the melanin enshrouds your skin cells and thickens the outer layer of your skin. It also multiplies the effectiveness of outdoor sunburn protectant creams and lotions.

We Emphasize Safe Tanning Through Sanitation and More

Before every tanning session, we carefully clean and sanitize each room and sunbed. Our staff is trained and certified in proper bed sanitization.

We care about your health. Ask us about proper eye and lip protection to use with every tanning session.

If you are on medication or are pregnant, please let your doctor know you are tanning and let us know, as well.
