What is to be known about solariums
Solarium is necessary not only in medical practice. It also is an indispensable attribute of many Istanbul hotels. Most guests love resting in solarium of Istanbul hotels. Yet, few know all the advantages and drawbacks of this "funny" procedure. We will list them, here.
Advantages
Those who think that solarium is not good are incorrect. Even the doctors advise visiting solarium a couple of times in early spring and late autumn. Five 10-minute-long procedures once per 2-3 days are optimal. Another advantage is that solarium can be visited when it is too hot outdoor. Doctors claim that solarium is to be preferred over the "natural getting a tan" when the temperature is higher than 30 degrees Celsius.
Harm
Solarium can be harmful if you use it improperly. Hence, remember the simple rules to be obeyed. First of all, do not use it too excessively. Overdoing it will cause aging of your skin. Secondly, coat your face while being inside the solarium. If you want it to get tanned, remove the coat for short time. Coat the skin near your eyes, the chest, the neck (to avoid the problems with your thyroid gland), and the hair. These can be coated with a piece of cotton.
Myths
Some people believe that solarium can help get rid of pimples. Unfortunately, it is not so. In this case, solarium will temporarily help, but later the things will go even worse. These skin disorders can only be cured by proper nutrition. Solarium can only underline the beauty of healthy skin. Another mistake is in thinking, that cosmetic creams are not to use in solarium. Solarium is not sun, but moisture creams and lotions should be used. The same reason implies, that cosmetics should not be used before visiting solarium. Finally, the most abundant error is that solarium is to be visited after going to bathhouse, so that "to let the tan be acquired by clean skin". It is a dangerous mistake! Bathing will deprive your skin of the lubricants. Visiting solarium in an Istanbul hotel or taking a sunbath without that will result in serious burns.
To whom solarium is contra-indicated
... children younger than 15
... pregnant and lactating women
... those having moles and hyperpigmented skin
... those suffering from hypertension, thyroid gland disorders, and tumours
In all the other cases, solarium will be very useful! The best solariums can be visited in the following Istanbul hotels:
