Is it possible to contract AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases from indoor tanning equipment?
The passing on of some sexually transmitted diseases requires the exchange of bodily fluids from one person to another. This exchange does not take place by using indoor tanning equipment. However, this does not mean that other infectious conditions cannot be passed on by humans from unsanitary equipment and protective eyewear.

One disinfectant that can safely be used on both equipment and eyewear, is “Lucasol-ONE STEP Disinfectant” from Lucas Products, Corp.

Thus, if one makes the decision to tan, it is recommended that one use a light source which contains both UVA and UVB.
