This video discusses ultraviolet radiation emitted by tanning devices and dermatological treatments, explaining how the body reacts to different ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum that the ozone layer allows to pass. It examines the types of UV-emitting lamps and devices, the importance of measuring their effective irradiance, and how to adjust doses according to skin phototype to minimise risks and optimise phototherapy. Key findings on the safe and effective use of these devices are presented.
