Hi Everyone, just thought i could do with some advice, Ive been using sunbeds for around 2 weeks now. And i think a mole on my person (back) looks irregular, Ive always had this mole on me but unsure if it looks cancerous. Just need help.

Hi there, Yes, go get it checked out by your GP and we strongly advise against using sunbeds. Sunbeds are a group 1 carcinogen and are known to cause all types of skin cancer, including the most deadly form - melanoma.

Damage is cumulative, irreparable and bad news at any age, but when used, even once at a younger age (under 35) your risk dramatically increases.

If you need anymore advice, please have a look on our website - skcin.org

If in doubt, get it checked out.
