A member asked:

What else can i do to get my skin to go from red to brown more quickly after tanning?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Skin damage: Remember that tanning will create irreversible damage to your skin. The process can't be accelerated. If you do not like the red phase, then consider spray tanning as an option. You will not pay the price of UV sun damaged skin. Hope this helps.
