How to use
How much to use / how often
The correct dosage for Melanotan II (MT2) is 1mg per day for every 100kg of bodyweight
- Results are noticeable within 1-3 weeks
- Until desired colour is reached, MT2 should be used everyday and tanning should occur 3 times per week (sun prefered but tanning bed is also acceptable)
- Once a user is happy with their tan, it can be maintained by tanning briefly just 1-2 times per week and only taking the MT2 dose on these days instead of everyday (some users can even maintain with sun only and stop using MT2 completely)
- It is important to note: the more sun you get the darker your skin will go (MT2 makes your body produce more melanin so it goes brown in response to UV instead of burning).
Studies indicate that MT2 is capable of inducing very minor darkening of skin colour without UV light or sun light exposure; however, MUCH BETTER RESULTS are achieved when MT2 is combined with UV exposure
Preparing your dose MT2 is administered by the same quick & painless injection that thousands of diabetics perform on themselves everyday. It simply involves inserting a tiny insulin needle into fatty tissue (abdominal, leg or glute) Assuming 2ml water is used per vial:

- Under no circumstances should the vial be shaken
