A 13-year-old boy is recovering after sustaining severe burn blisters to his face after visiting a tanning salon three times in a day.
Kieron Saunders from Tredegar, Blaenau Gwent, Wales spent a total of 21 minutes frying himself under the lights of the stand-up booth.
He has been told to stay at home for a week after the burns became infected.
The salon's owner, Steven James, said he was "gutted" by the incident and is arranging meetings with officials to prevent it happening again.
The Idiot's mother, Maria, said she had warned her son about the dangers of sunbeds before and had threatened to "ground him" and take away his pocket money if he used them again.
