Sunsport 2021 High Pressure Tanning Bed

  • 30 Min. Bed, 30,000 Watts Pwr, .25% UVB
  • 10 times more power than Level 1
  • Lower Level UVB so color lasts longer
  • Pro:  2-3 sessions to develop base

Nothing tans faster or more effectively than the SunSport 2021. The SunSport's twenty-one 1000 watt tanning lamps use the gentlest yet most effective portion of the UV light spectrum to tan. While most tanners take 8-12 tanning sessions to achieve a tan, depending on the type of equipment used and skin type, using the SunSport a beautiful golden brown tan can be achieved in just 3-4 sessions. 

Maintaining that tan only requires visits once every 10-20 days. This is the ultimate way to tan. Comfort, luxury and effectiveness all rolled in to one. You lie on a large comfortable mattress that we cover with a large, clean towel. You tan naturally - half your session on the front, half on the back. Simply stated the SunSport 2021 is the best tanning machine available.

SunSport is absolutely the very best of the best.

The Tanning Process

Tanning is a natural process.  Your body tans as a defense mechanism to reduce the absorption of ultraviolet.  That's why a "base tan" helps prevent sunburn.  A base tan slows the absorption of ultraviolet, reducing the chance of over exposure to the damaging affect of burning rays.  The key to safe, effective tanning is to understand the process and the equipment, then use both in a manner that reduces your exposure to burning rays.  Remember, it's the burn that causes the damage, not the tan.

 

What is High Pressure Tanning?

 

High pressure tanning is an exciting new alternative to traditional indoor tanning. The high pressure tanning system uses "high pressure" quartz lamps as opposed to "low pressure" conventional fluorescent tubular lamps. High pressure tanning provides a faster, deeper, longer lasting tan than conventional tanning, with a greatly reduced risk of sunburn.

 

How Does High Pressure Tanning Work?

Humans normally exfoliate (shed) their skin about every 28 days. Constant exposure to UVB light in conventional tanning beds accelerates this cycle to somewhere between 5 and 10 days. Since UVB light tans only the outer layer of skin, which then exfoliates every 5 to 10 days, your tan fades if you let more than just a few days go by between tanning sessions. Also, in response to UVB, your outer layer of skin thickens as a natural barrier to further UVB exposure.

High pressure beds tan with virtually 100% UVA rays, allowing your skin to return to its normal 28 day cycle. High pressure tanning also tans deeper, so even as your outer layer exfoliates, the layer beneath is still tan.

What puts the Sunsport bed above the rest?

High pressure lamps increase the amount of energy that is released so that the tanning process is triggered in much less time. One 30-minute treatment could be compared to 8-12 sessions in a conventional low pressure bed, or a whole day in the Caribbean sun.

A series of 3 to 4 sessions at His & Her Day Spa will give you a deep, natural tan. To maintain this tan, only one or two sessions per month is necessary. With high pressure tanning, you can get a darker, faster tan, and keep it longer!

What are the advantages of the Sunsport High Pressure bed?

  • Saves time: Fewer sessions needed.
  • Fewer sessions: Means less overall exposure to ultraviolet radiation.

  • Saves money: Your tan will last 3-4 times longer, so you will save time and money by not having to tan as often.

  • Relaxing: In the Sunsport sunbed, all of the UV rays come from the top of the unit (the wrap around canopy). You tan for 11 minutes lying on your back, and then turn over for the remaining 11 minutes. This makes the tanning experience less like artificial tanning and much more like sunbathing at the beach.

  • Comfortable: When in a Sunsport sunbed, you will be relaxing on a large contoured mattress as opposed to the acrylic surface of a traditional low pressure bed. This does away with pressure marks and lines under the arms.

  • Cool: The Sunsport sunbed has a built in cooling system. There is a dual-speed body-cooling fan at the base of the bed which you can adjust to blow cool air over your entire body. There is very little perspiration and you get no unpleasant tanning smell.
