title: Persistent melanocytic lesions associated with cosmetic tanning bed use: "sunbed lentigines".
abstract: A patient with persistent melanocytic lesions after tanning bed use is described. A review of the literature provides two additional examples of similar clinical and histologic presentations after UVA exposure without psoralen. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of "sunbed lentigines" in the United States.
