What is Melanotan II by SYN Pharma?
Melanotan II by SYN Pharma is a synthetic peptide that stimulates the body’s natural production of melanin — the pigment responsible for skin tone. Originally developed to reduce the risk of skin cancer by encouraging natural tanning, it has become a favorite in the aesthetic and fitness world for its ability to deliver a long-lasting, even tan without excessive UV exposure.
In addition to tanning, Melanotan II is known to enhance libido, suppress appetite, and support mild fat loss. It is typically administered as a subcutaneous injection during a short “loading phase” followed by occasional maintenance doses.

Common Questions About Melanotan II
Do I still need sun exposure with Melanotan II?
Yes — but only minimal exposure is needed. 2–3 sessions of 10–15 minutes per week will trigger melanin activation and tanning much faster than UV alone.
Are there any side effects?
The most common is temporary nausea. This can be minimized by injecting before bed or starting with lower doses. Some users may experience slight facial flushing or appetite suppression.
How long does the tan last?
Results vary, but most users maintain their tan for weeks — especially if doing occasional maintenance doses. The deeper pigmentation fades slowly with normal skin shedding.
Can women use it?
Yes. Melanotan II is widely used by both men and women for tanning and libido enhancement.
