What is Melanotan 2?
Melanotan 2 (MT2) is a synthetic peptide that promotes melanin production. Melanin is the pigment responsible for our skin coloration. Therefore, MT2 is primarily used as a tanning agent. It not only ensures faster tanning but also makes the tan last longer.

Dosage Basics
There is no universal dosage protocol for Melanotan 2, as tolerance levels vary. Some individuals experience side effects at 100mcg, while others handle 1000mcg without issues. The key is to start low and increase gradually. Always listen to your body!
Preface:
- Melanotan 2 can be taken daily.
- Start with a very low dose of 50 mcg to test your body's reaction. The dose can be gradually increased (if well tolerated) over the following days.
- Avoid "loading phase" as it can cause strong side effects and undesired darkening of moles and freckles.
- Initially, take Melanotan 2 before bedtime to sleep through potential side effects. Once active in the body, take it 30 minutes before UV exposure. Activity is indicated by a slight darkening of moles and freckles.
Example Dosage Protocol
| Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4 | Day 5 | Day 6 | Day 8 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50mcg | 100mcg | 150mcg | 200mcg | 250mcg | 300mcg | 350mcg |
Most users achieve good results with a daily dose of 200 – 500 mcg. People with very fair skin types (Type 1) often need higher doses to achieve visible tanning effects.
The higher the dose and UV exposure, the faster the desired tan. However, do not exceed 1000 mcg per day, as this could lead to strong side effects.
Once a daily dose of 200 - 500 mcg is reached and initial results are seen, maintain this dose until the desired skin tone is achieved.
Maintenance Phase
Once you've achieved the tan you desire, you should start the maintenance phase. During the maintenance phase, you only take Melanotan 1-2 times per week to prevent getting even tanner.
| Day 20 | Day 21 | Day 22 | Day 23 | Day 24 | Day 25 | Day 26 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 350mcg | - | - | 350mcg | - | - | - |
How long does Melanotan 2 take to show results?
Most users notice visible results within 1 to 2 weeks. However, individuals with very fair skin or red hair may require up to 3 weeks to see noticeable changes.
Keep in mind that Melanotan 2 is highly potent. You might not see any effects initially, but then experience a rapid tanning response within a short period.
