Why Choose Melanotan Labs
Frequently asked questions
What is Melanotan II?
Melanotan II is a peptide that stimulates the body’s melanocortin receptors, which increases the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color. This process helps promote a darker skin tone when the skin is exposed to UV light.
How do I use Melanotan II?
Melanotan II comes as a lyophilised powder that must be mixed with bacteriostatic water before use. Once reconstituted, it is typically administered as a subcutaneous injection into a fatty area of the body, such as the stomach or thigh.
Does it work without sun exposure?
Melanotan II stimulates the body’s production of melanin, however it is generally recommended to be used alongside moderate, healthy sun exposure to support the natural tanning process. Prolonged or excessive sun exposure is not necessary and is not recommended, and sun exposure should always be kept within safe guidelines.
Are your products tested for purity?
Yes. Our products are tested for purity and quality to ensure they meet strict standards before being supplied. Peptide testing commonly uses analytical methods such as HPLC and mass spectrometry to verify identity and purity levels, which are often ≥99% for high quality Melanotan II.
What payment methods do you accept?
We currently accept major credit and debit cards for secure online payments. Additional payment options may be available at checkout depending on your location.
How should it be stored?
Unopened vials should be stored in a freezer to help prolong shelf life. Once mixed with bacteriostatic water, the solution should be kept refrigerated between 2 to 8°C and stored away from direct light.
