Tanning injectable?

IBE has it, I wasn't aware that it was injectable.

Yeah, i was checking Lion Nutrition site and saw it on there.. i wonder if it works, andwhat the possible sides are?

.. i wonder if it works, andwhat the possible sides are?

Me too... and what about people whose skin does not tan easily or at all? I know there other genetically challenged sob's out there like myself who burn easily and might turn a slight shade darker... from @ss white to just white.

Would genetics prevent something like this from working?

hmmmmm
Sounds very interesting.. I also wonder if its more healthy or more risky than actual tanning?

They said it was made to combat cancer. The idea being that if youre already tan, you wont get damge I guess. Im not sure if science supports this.
It also is said to have aphrodisiac properties.
I ordered a bottle but have no Idea how to use it. Not amounts or timing.
Anyone from IBE posting here?

ERECTOGENIC PROPERTIES OF MELANOTAN II IN MEN WITH ORGANIC ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION.

Introduction and Objectives

Melanotan II (MTII), a superpotent cyclic melanotropic peptide, is a central initiator of erection in men with psychogenic erectile dysfunction (ED). We assessed the erectogenic properties and side effect profile of MT II in men with organic ED.

Methods

Nine subjects aged 37 to 67 years (mean 57.4) with erectile dysfunction were enrolled in the study if history, physical examination, and nocturnal penile tumescence (NPT) were consistent with an organic etiology. Pre-trial NPT revealed a mean of 0.5 erectile events per night, lasting a mean of 6 minutes (range 0-18) with a mean maximum rigidity of 36%. A serum biochemical and hormonal profile was obtained prior to entry into the study and subjects were required to fill out the IIEF: mean values for questions 3 and 4 were 0.77 and 0.22 respectively. A double blind placebo-controlled, crossover study design was used: MTII (0.025 mg/kg) and vehicle were each administered twice by subcutaneous injection. Placebo and MTII doses were separated by at least 48 hours. Real time Rigiscan monitoring, a questionnaire, and a visual analog score of penile rigidity were used to quantify erection and side effects. Subjective change in sexual desire during the 6 hour period was recorded using a modification of IIEF question 12 (scale of 0 to 5: None=0, Very High=5)

Results

Eight of 9 subjects reported Rigiscan and subjective evidence of erections with MT II while none did so on placebo. Two patients reported erections outside of the 6-hour observation period. Mean values for rigidity (visual analog scale) were 7.37 on MTII versus 0.0 for placebo. Subjectively reported duration of erection averaged 64.1 minutes on MT II. Mean level of sexual desire was 2.12 after MT II versus 1.06 on placebo. Nausea, stretching and yawning, and flushing occurred more frequently with MTII, but only 2 of 17 injections resulted in severe nausea.

Conclusion

The erectogenic properties of MT II are not limited cases of psychogenic ED; men with a variety of organic etiologies developed penile erections in response to our standard dose of 0.025 mg/kg. The unexpected finding of increased sexual desire warrants further investigation of central initiators on disorders of desire.

Hey guys, I said I'd be posting some pics so here they are. I have type II skin and can get a slight tan but it's really hard to keep for more than a couple of days without constant sun exposure. With melanotan II I can keep the best tan I've ever had with only two 10 minute tanning sessions a week. I weigh 100kg so at .02 mg/kg my dose was 2 mg per injection every second day. You get a better deal on this stuff if your smaller but oh well. These pictures were taken during the third week of my cycle. I wasn't able to seperate the melanotan II into individual doses so surely it lost some potency over time once it was mixed, how much I don't know. For my next cycle (in about a month) I expect to see better results since I'm going to to get each dose individually allocated. The only side effects I had were slight nausea and a facial flush for about an hour after injecting (the first time was the worst). I did notice that most of my facial hair turned very dark as well as my birthmarks. Frecking was very minor if at all. One warning though, make sure that when you swab your injection site with alcohol it is completely dry before you inject or else ouch! Serious burning for about half an hour. I know the pics aren't the greatest quality or in the same lighting etc, but it's the best I could do right now. Remember, the before pic isn't me at my natural pale color, but rather the darkest I could get last summer. I think the pic's clearly show the difference between the best tan I could get before melanotan II vs after with way less sun exposure. People have commented, and I'm looking forward to a sunburn free summer (hopefully). Can't wait for the implant.

Does it require refrigeration?

bump for a comment from IBE about use and storage.

MT2 should be shipped with an ice pack and stored in the freezer if don't plan on using immediately. Once reconstituted with BW it can be stored in the fridge for a couple of weeks, although it will slowly degrade.

Alternatively you can reconsitute, preload your slin pins, and then freeze them. They only take 5-10 mins to thaw out.

MT2 is a very interesting peptide.

Well I just got a bottle. After reading a little further into it it looks like everyone is buying 2 of them from the start. We'll see what kind of results one produces and go from there. Everyone seems to love the stuff so far and looks like it works very good.

It may darken previously unseen freckles on my body..I noticed new ones on my nose and hip. Strange.

Depending on your skin type you probably won't get much out of one vial, you'll probably need a couple to get a darker tan.

As bjjfighter mentioned above it can darken and enlarge existing freckles, as well as create new ones.

Try melanotan.org. A lot of good information.
