What types of skin cancer are associated with tanning beds?
The primary types of skin cancer associated with tanning bed use are melanoma, basal cell carcinoma (BCC), and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Melanoma is the most dangerous type because it can spread to other parts of the body if not caught early. BCC and SCC are less likely to spread but can still cause significant health issues and disfigurement if not treated promptly.
