A 43-year-old woman has revealed that she has undergone 86 skin cancer surgeries, claiming that tanning beds are the cause.

“If I could go back and talk to my 17-year-old self, I would tell (her) that skin cancer is avoidable,” Lisa Pace told Today.com on May 23. “(I'd say) don’t get in that tanning bed. Wear sunscreen. Wear protective clothing. People are going to love you for what you look like on the inside, not on the outside.”
