[[Translated article]]Discussion Abounds on the Potential Carcinogenic Risks Associated With the Use of UV Curing Lamps for Permanent Nail Polish

CONCLUSIONS: The exposure times and doses received with the common use of artificial lamp nail drying correspond to sunlight exposures of 3 min to 5 min in the central hours of the day. This represents a very low carcinogenic potential compared to sunlight exposure, although similar regarding immunosuppressive potential. Photoprotective measures would further minimize the risks.PMID:38648931 | DOI:10.1016/j.ad.2024.04.006
