Melanocortin-agonist protocol for photoprotective pigmentation research.

Peptides

Melanotan II

Why it works

MC1R agonism on melanocytes drives eumelanin synthesis, producing dose-dependent skin darkening.

How to use

  • Melanotan II — 250-500 mcg subcutaneous daily for a 1-2 week loading phase, then 500 mcg 1-2x weekly maintenance.
