This is comment on Proposed Rule

General and Plastic Surgery Devices: Reclassification of Ultraviolet Lamps for Tanning, Henceforth To Be Known as Sunlamp Products

View Comment

Dear Dr Shuren, As a dermatogist I have had to diagnose too many young people with melanoma due to indoor tanning. Nearly 2.3 million teens tan indoors annually in the United States. Restricting teens' accesss to these devises is paramount to protect our nation's youth. Thank you for your efforts to increase regulations on these dangerous devices. I urge you to finalize your proposed order and work toward further regulations that will completely restrict access to minors under the age of 18 years. Sincerely, Jeffrey M Scricca MD
