This entails allowing the skin to get sunburned while wearing stickers, tape or sunscreen in order to create artistic designs.
Although some young adults told Fox News Digital that they use their skin as a canvas to create these sunburn displays for social media attention and because it «looks cool,» skin care experts say this could be harmful to skin health.

An experimental cancer vaccine has shown promise in keeping certain cancers from coming back.
In a phase 1 clinical trial led in part by the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center, researchers tested the vaccine (ELI-002 2P) with 25 patients who had been treated for pancreatic and colorectal cancer.
The patients had all undergone surgery to remove tumors and showed «signs of minimal residual disease» or traces of DNA, putting them at a high risk of recurrence, according to a UCLA press release.

People with multiple sclerosis (MS) may show warning signs long before classic symptoms appear — and mental health concerns could be among the first red flags, according to new research.
A University of British Columbia (UBC) study, published last week in JAMA Network Open, examined the medical records of 2,038 patients with the autoimmune disease and compared them to 10,182 patients without it.
The researchers found that future MS patients had elevated rates of mental health-related issues, psychiatrist and general practice visits, and complaints of vague symptoms such as fatigue and pain — all as early as 15 years before the onset of clear symptoms.
