Has anybody ever got a skin infection from a tanning bed?

Listen up baby! I am an owner of a tanning salon. There are so many differnt skin infections that you can get from the tanning bed if they are not cleaned properly.THE TANNING BULBS DO NOT KILL THE BACTERIA THAT HUMAN BEINGS SWEAT LEAVES BEHIND. Tanning bed needs to cleaned properly (not just that spray bottle and rag that most places do. They need disinfectint spray that kills VIRUS AND BACTERIA. You can get rashes,or worse bacterial infections like Staff or Scavies(skin lice) especially if you have any cuts anywhere even tiny ones from shaving.To prevent this and be able to tan safely make sure you go to tanning salon that has agood reputation and has frquent inspections from the board of health. I never would let any of my clients tan in adirty bed. I make sure all my staff clean each bed the right way after every person is done tanning. To me the health of everybody (including myself beacuse I tan too) is the most important thing.

no!
Reply:my girl goes all the time never heard of it
Reply:My friend did.
Reply:The likeliness is virtually impossible if the tanning bed in question is fully functional, as viral or bacterial orgnaisms couldn't survive the intense heat.
Reply:no and it unlikely beacuse the uv lights would kill any bacteria that is left. You probably picked it up somewhere else.
Reply:I have never had a problem in tanning beds, but my mom has. She doesnt sweat a lot, and after she would get out of the tanning bed she would be red and splotchy and itchy. Also, she once used one of those "tingle" type lotions, which broke her out. She was allergic to the hemp seed in it.
Reply:If I were u I'd be more worried about skin cancer than an infection.
Reply:ya a friend of mine did
Reply:No because I clean it before I get in. I don't trust that the person before me cleaned it.
