Under which circumstances can gel polish manicures lead to the development of cancer, as explained by geneticists.

According to geneticists, the reason for their study was the previously published results of the work of American scientists from the University of California. “Doctor Peter” wrote about it. US biologists then reported that UV lamps for drying nails, which are actively used in the beauty industry, can damage the DNA of cells and cause genetic mutations that provoke skin cancer. According to the data obtained, only a 20-minute procedure was enough to kill from 20 to 30 percent of living cells. If the process lasted for an hour, already from 65 to 70 percent died. And scientists also specified that the action of a UV lamp has a cumulative effect – the more often you do such a manicure, the worse.
