UNDERSTANDING HIGH PRESSURE
There are two main types of ultraviolet
light, UVA and UVB. All tanning beds use a combination of these two rays,
which contribute differently to the tanning process. Tanning takes place
in the skins outermost layer, the epidermis. When exposed to UVB light,
melanocytes located within the epidermis produce melanin, which causes the
skin to redden. When exposed to UVA light, the melanin oxidizes and causes
the skin to darken to a deep golden brown. High-pressure bulbs are much
smaller in size than regular tanning bulbs. A unique filter system allows
the Omega to filter out most of the UVB rays, using just enough to stimulate
the melanin leaving the UVA rays to darken the skin. Tanning is actually the
body's natural defense mechanism for protecting against the sun's rays.
Normally, the outer layer of skin exfoliates every 28 days but when exposed
to high concentrations of UVB rays; the body is forced to exfoliate
prematurely every 5-10 days. This is why low-pressure tanners must tan more
frequently to keep the outer layer of their skin looking brown. Because
high-pressure filters out most of the UVB rays, your skin is able to
maintain normal exfoliation every 28 days, which in turn allows your skin to
stay tan much longer!
