Tanning Services Policy - Prolonged sun exposure, whether achieved through direct sunlight or through indoor tanning, greatly and unnecessarily increases the risk for skin cancer.PCA SKIN® is dedicated to preserving, promoting and protecting healthy skin. Offering tanning services is in direct conflict with our philosophy. For this reason, we cannot support these practices in any way.PCA SKIN will not form a selling relationship with any new customer offering tanning services at the same location as the one where they will offer PCA SKIN professional treatments or daily care products. This also will hold true for businesses using a reference to tanning in its name.For the purposes of this policy, ‘tanning services’ refers to the use of a bed, booth or similar mechanical means to simulate the effects of prolonged sun exposure. It does not include spray-on tanning services. Also, the term ‘same location’ will include any location operated by the same business owner and sharing an address.When it comes to PCA SKIN’s attention that an existing customer is offering tanning services at the same location it is offering PCA SKIN professional treatments or daily care products, PCA SKIN will make contact with the business immediately via surface mail, explaining this policy and allowing the business the opportunity to cease offering tanning services at that location. This opportunity will last no longer than six months. If the business does not wish to cease offering tanning services, PCA SKIN will no longer serve the business as a customer. The business’s customer account will be blocked indefinitely, so long as the business continues offering tanning services.If the business decides it will cease offering tanning services, it must demonstrate as much to PCA SKIN, so that we can continue to consider the business a customer.
