DescriptionMelanotan 2 Tanning Injections (otherwise known as MT2) was first synthesized at the University of Arizona. Researches there knew that onc of the best defenses against skin cancer was melanin activated in the skin, a tan. They hypothesized that an effective way to reduce skin cancer rates in people would be to induce the body's natural pigmentary system to produce a protective tan prior to UV exposure. The body's naturally occuring hormone MSH causes melanogenesis, a process by which the skin's pigment (melanocytes) produce the skin's pigment (melanin). They tested to see if administering this endogenous hormone to the body directly could be an effective method to cause sunless tanning. What they found was that while it appeared to work, natural MSH had too short a half life in the body to be practical as a therapeutic drug. So they decided to find a more potent and stable alternative, one that would be more practical.After synthesizing and screening hundreds of molecules, the researchers headed by Victor J. Hruby and Mac E. Hadley, found a peptide, [Nle4, D-7] MSH, that was approimately 1,000 times more potent than the natural MSH. They dubbed this new peptide molecule, "Melanotan" (later Melanotan-1, now know as afamelanotide). They subsequently developed another analog, Ac-Nle-cyclo[Asp-His-D--Arg-Trp-Lys]-NH2), which they called "Melanotan" Tanning Injections. The scientists hoped to use these peptides to combat melanoma by stimulating the body's natural pigmentary mechanism to create a tan without first needing exposure to harmful levels of UV radiation. This in turn, they hypothesized, could reduce the potential for skin damage that can eventually lead to skin cancer.A pilot se I clinical trial conducted on three males by the College of Medacine, rmacology Department, University of Arizona in Tuscon, Arizona pulished in 1996 reported that, "Melanotan" Tanning Injections has tanning activity in humans given only 5 low doses every other day by subcutaneous injection." The side effects reported were mild nausea and a "stretching and yawning complex" that correlated with spontaneous penile erections.The Department of rmacology, University of Arizona College of Medacin published in 1998 that involved 10 men who suffered from psychogenic erectile dysfunction. Their trial concluded that, "Melanotan" Tanning Injections is a potent initiator of erections in men with pyschogenic erectile dydfunction and has manageable side effects at a dose of 0.025mg/kg.A clinical study published in 2000 of 20 men with psychogenic and organic erectile dysfunction conducted at the Section of Urology of The University of Arizona College of Medacin concluded, "that Melanotan II Tanning Injections is a potent initiator of penile erection in men with ecrectile dysfunction.Function

Tanning peptide is a type of peptide that stimulates the production of melanin in the body to provide a deep, natural tan. Melanin is actually your body's natural response to UV damage, darkening the skin slightly to protect it from further damage.Melanotan 2 is a synthetically created peptide that stimulates skin tanning, increased libido, and lipolysis (fat loss) through activation of specific melanocortin receptors in the body. Melanotan 2 encourages the body to increase melanin production, leading to powerful tanning and skin-darkening effects when used in conjunction with sun or UV exposure.By using MT2, users experience quicker tanning and and faster healing to damaged skin than would otherwise be possible. Because of this, it is especially suited to those who's skin is pale; those who are at greatest risk of developing skin cancer.

Dosage and UsageMixing the solutionFlip off the cap from the Melanotan 2 Tanning Injection vial.Wipe the surface of the top of the vial with the enclosed alcohol wipe and discard the wipe.Wipe the surface of the injectable water tube (or glass water vial depending on the pack ordered) with the enclosed alcohol wipe and discard the wipe.Remove the enclosed syringe from the packaging. Making sure the injectable water tube is upright, insert the needle of the syringe into the sidewall of the water.Now pull back the plunger of the syringe so you withdraw 1ml of water and slowly pull the syringe out.Insert the syringe into the Melanotan 2 Tanning Injection vial and depress the plunger so you completely empty the syringe of the water and slowly remove the syringe from the vial. Do not shake the solution.Place the Melanotan 2 solution in the fridge for storage until ready for use.Make sure you put the syringe caps on and carefully dispose of it.You have now mixed your Melanotan 2 Tanning Injection solution. Please store the solution in the fridge.
