According to Erem News, amid posting about the tanning bed, Kim Kardashian was faced with criticism from many people on TikTok including licensed dermatologists who warned the media personality about the consequences of using a tanning bed because it negatively impacts the skin and health.

Several doctors took to the comment section to point out that indoor tannin increases the possibility of cancer with squamous cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma being the most common. In addition, the dermatologist also stated that Kim is endangering millions of people because of her social media reach.

According to Daily Mail, a doctor said:

“This is Kim’s lack of respect for her followers. How can she promote a tanning bed, while her sister Khloe suffered from fatal skin cancer last year?”

“If your family has a history of skin cancer, your risk of developing it will increase by 74%.”
