the incidents of skin cancer and other sun related skin damage grown.

Unless you can demonstrate that the incidence of skin cancer has increased on the upper butt cheeks and the midsection--areas covered by a traditional one-piece bathing suit--then I don't think you can argue that wearing bikinis leads to skin cancer.

Women wear bikini swimsuits primarily to go out in the sun. That more skin is exposed by a bikini obviously increases the risk of sun damage versus other swimwear styles all other things being equal.
