Show abstract
An online, cross-sectional survey was conducted to understand support for potential sunbed regulation strategies in the UK among 502 UK-based young adults (aged 18-24). Sunbed users showed strong support for sunbed regulation in the UK overall, particularly for staff supervision, mandatory health warnings, and business licensing, policies already implemented in some UK regions. Framing policies around public health protection rather than restricting personal freedom significantly enhanced support. These findings suggest a phased regulatory approach, starting with measures like stricter licensing and promotion of safer tanning alternatives that align with sunbed users sentiment, may build broader support for stronger regulation over time. This manuscript has been submitted to the British Journal of Dermatology and is currently under review.
