Question 1 • GA-GSE Health Education

What advice should you give Hanna about her decision? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
“You are increasing your risk for skin cancer.”
B
“At least having a base tan will prevent you from further skin damage.”
C
“A terrible sunburn can form on your body.”
D
“Your skin will age a lot faster than normal.”
E
“It is okay if you do not wear sunblock now, but you should put some on this afternoon.”

Explanation

Using tanning beds or getting excessive UV exposure raises the risk of skin cancer, can cause a severe sunburn, and speeds up skin aging. A base tan does not prevent further skin damage; it is a sign that UV exposure has already damaged the skin. Sun protection is important whenever you are exposed to UV, not just later in the day.
