The main effect of Melanotan II is tanning. The drug stimulates the production of melanin, which makes the skin darker even with minimal exposure to sunlight.
Melanotan II is a synthetic peptide that acts on the melanocortin receptors in the body, mainly stimulating the production of melanin, the skin pigment. It does not affect testosterone or other steroid hormones, and its mechanism of action is completely different from that of anabolic steroids.
In addition, Melanotan II is known for its possible effects such as increased libido and decreased appetite.

Recommended working doses
Amateurs
Start with a dose of 0.25-0.5 mg, administered subcutaneously every other day or two to minimize side effects.
After a few injections, if well tolerated, gradually increase the dose to 1 mg per day.
After achieving the desired level of tan, switch to a maintenance dose (e.g. 0.5-1 mg once a week).
