The Sunbed Association said "that any risk associated with sunbed use relates to abuse and over-exposure for example burning and not to responsible exposure and tanning. Sunbeds are designed to mimic the sun's UV output in a controlled dose, no higher than the levels of UV experience from sunlight. There is no scientific evidence of a causal relationship between sunbeds and melanoma.
