If you think that the sessions are too long for you (e.g. if the skin
gets taut and tender after the session), we advise you to reduce
the sessions by e.g. 5 minutes per side of the body.
To get a beautiful all-over tan it is suggested that you turn slightly
during the session so that the sides of your body are better
exposed to the tanning rays.
UV sessions: how often? And how long?
For solarium type HB 555 (10 tube lamps) and for HB 556 (10 tube
lamps and face tanner).
You may have one UV session per day, over a period of five to ten
days. Allow at least 48 hours between the first two sessions.
After such a course, you may rest the skin for a while.
Approximately one month after a course your skin will have lost much
of the tan.You might then decide to start a new course.
On the other hand, it is also possible to have one or two UV sessions
per week after a course has elapsed in order to keep up the tan.
Whatever you may prefer, make sure that you do not exceed the
maximum amount of tanning hours per year.
- For these solarium types HB 555 and HB556 (with 10 large tube
lamps) this is 23 hours (= 1380 minutes).
Example
Imagine that you take a 10 day UV course, with a 9 minute session on
the first day and 25 minutes' sessions on the nine following days.
The entire course then includes (1 x 9 minutes) + (9 x 25 minutes) =
234 minutes.
When using solarium type HB 555 and HB556 (with 10 large tube
lamps), you may have 5 of these courses over a year. (As 5 x 234
minutes = 1170 minutes.)
