What is mt2?
Melanotan II (MT-2) is a synthetic peptide that mimics the natural hormone α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It works by activating melanocortin receptors in the body, primarily the MC1R receptor found in skin cells called melanocytes. When these receptors are stimulated, they increase the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color.
As a result, MT-2 is mainly used for tanning purposes, giving the skin a darker tone even with limited sun exposure. However, it also activates other melanocortin receptors (like MC3R and MC4R), which can lead to side effects such as increased libido, nausea, appetite changes, and facial flushing.
In summary, MT-2 is a melanocyte-stimulating peptide that darkens skin tone and can influence sexual function and metabolism by acting on various melanocortin pathways in the body.
My personal experience
I have taken mt2 for about one week. I pin around 250mcg every day and i have used a sunbed twice. In this time period i have already gotten an great tan, which has resulted in my own beliefs, to make me look way better. It's really cheap as well and it's really easy to pin using insuline needles. Never experienced any side effects so far and it has really worked well. I'm gonna run 250mcg for another week and then jump to 500mcg until i got the tan i want. After that i will run 250mcg to keep the tan until my vial goes empty. I would recommend the peptide to anyone who has pale skin or just wants better coloring. I have linked a photo where you can see the current can (i was lowkey pale before mt2)
I would recommend you read this thread regarding the use and dosage of mt2 it helped me a lot.
