Tanning bed? Girls only?

Q: I got a week free at a tanning place and figured I could go to get a tan before prom so I don’t have any lines. The woman said most people go in naked, which I always have worn at least swim suit bottoms before but I took her advice.. I put lotion all over my body except my a r s e, as I’m not used to putting it there lol. i woke up this morning and it was red and hurts a bit. Do you think it will be fine for when I go again tomorrow? I was only in the bed for 7 minutes and plan to go in that long again tomorrow.

A: Well I have always gone naked but you can wear a swim suit if you don’t mind the tan lines. You should always put lotion everywhere. The only place I don’t always put it is my face. A lot of the lotions have some sort of spf protection which your skin needs and the lotion may also have moisturizing properties. I knew a guy one that worked at a tanning place and actually recommended that I tan again while I was still red to help the hurting go away. I would not recommend the towel but if you are concerned about the burnt spot then I would say you should try to put sun block with a higher spf on that area only to prevent it from burning further.

Acne while pregnant… Help!!!?

Q: Okay, so I haven’t always had the clearest skin… But, when I went to the dermatologist, he actually laughed at me for coming in! I have tried antibiotics and such from there and what seems like every over-the-counter product you can buy – nothing helps! Now that I’m pregnant it seems like it’s getting worse and I’m sure it’s probably the hormone aspect, but is there anything I can do?! Has anyone else ever had this problem and found something that helped? I read somewhere that some Dr’s tell you to sit a few times a week with just your face near a tanning bed with a fan on you to prevent overheating and it helps clear it up… But, I thought tanning beds were a huge NO-NO during pregnancy? If anyone has any suggestions – please feel free to tell me what you have tried and your results with it! Thanks!!!

A: I have the same problem. I was hoping it would clear up before my baby shower…but it doesn’t look like it will. I use Proactive 2 times a day, but it still hasn’t cleared anything up. I was getting treatment at the dermatologist before this; and everything was going great. They did a special heat-electricity thing directly on my breakouts and it cleared them up within days. I was also on a prescription lotion that worked really well for me. You can ask if there is one that is safe during pregnancy. I haven’t had the time to return to the dermatologist since I got pregnant.
