Stimulates melanin production
MT-2 increases the production of melanin, leading to a natural, darker skin tone and enhanced tanning response.
The advanced tanning peptide (Melanotan II)
MT-2
Melanotan II
10 mgVial + BAC Water
Melanotan II (MT-2) is a synthetic peptide that mimics the action of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It binds to melanocortin receptors in the body, stimulating melanin production, which promotes natural skin pigmentation and may offer additional benefits related to libido, mood, and sun tolerance.

Key benefits
What MT-2 is studied for
May increase UV tolerance
By enhancing melanin levels, MT-2 may help improve the skin's natural defence against UV radiation, which can support longer, safer sun exposure.
Promotes a natural, even tan
Supports a deeper, longer-lasting tan with less sun exposure and may reduce the risk of sunburn when used responsibly.
May enhance libido & sexual function
MT-2 has been associated with increased libido and improved sexual function in both men and women.
May improve mood & well-being
Research suggests MT-2 may have positive effects on mood, help reduce anxiety, and promote an overall sense of well-being.
Supports natural pigmentation
May be beneficial in research on conditions that affect skin pigmentation, such as vitiligo (research use only).
Longer-lasting results
Helps maintain a tan for a longer duration, even with reduced sun exposure.
Additional potential benefits
Early research suggests potential benefits for appetite regulation, body composition, and overall wellness.
MT-2 is studied for its role in melanogenesis, UV protection, libido, mood, and other potential therapeutic applications.
