The popular UV nail lamps can change DNA, the team at UCSD found, but determining whether they’re linked to more serious issues will take years of additional research.
When getting a manicure, most of us are most concerned about what colour nail polish to choose than the type of dryer used...UV dryers are often used in nail salons to dry gel nail polish.They they exposed human and mouse cells to UV rays from a dryer found that the rays can permanently change DNA.It's routine for people all over the country: a nail tech paints your nails and motions for you to stick your hands into a UV lamp to dry.
The team found that radiation emitted by UV-nail polish dryers can permanently damage DNA but said future studies are needed to determine the relationship between the dryers and skin cancer.Radiation from UV lamps can lead to mutations in DNA The team said the radiation emitted by UV nail polish dryers can lead to mutations in DNA. The radiation imprints on your DNA and each time your cell divides, the mutation will be present in the new cells. And cells divide constantly depending on the organ, Zhivagui said.
"This patient's extensive UV nail lamp use coupled with UVA exposure from tanning beds may have put her at particular risk and exacerbated the effects of the nail lamp alone," the researchers said in the 2019 article. She also said the team used"state-of-the-art technology" such as DNA sequencing to see just how much the UV dryers damaged the cells.
Skelsey, the board-certified dermatologist, said one of the study's limitations is that it did not involve actual human beings, nor did it look at the long-term impact of using UV nail dryers to see whether people developed skin cancer.
