The accompanying heat and fans that circulate air around nails help evaporate solvents in the polish, which allows lacquer to harden and cuts drying time in half. But the lights emit UV radiation that’s 95 percent UVA, rays that can cause wrinkles < http://www.everydayhealth.com/skin-and-beauty/ways-to-reduce-wrinkles.aspx>, sunspots, and even skin cancer. One study published in the Archives of Dermatology examined two cases of healthy middle-aged women who developed non-melanoma skin cancer on the backs of their hands and fingers. Neither had a family history of cancer but they did report regular use of UV nail dryers (one twice monthly for 15 years; the other 8 times over the course of a year) which researchers linked to their cancer. “Your hands are close enough to the light to soak up rays < http://www.everydayhealth.com/skin-and-beauty/aging-skin/effects-of-uv-radiation.aspx> and damage skin.
