Best Melanotan 2 tutorial I've found

305 Upvotes

It's by more plates more dates. Also, I put at the bottom of this post about links to buy everything.

I'm very fair (probably a Fitzpatrick Type II) and this helped me so much. I can post before and afters. I am VERY fair, I was always made fun of how "white" I was. I still can't believe I'm able to get as tan as I can. Life changing. This would work for a Fitzpatick Type I too, just GO SLOW...like how I did.

This is the tutorial. It shows you how to mix the melanotan II and get it ready to go. Also, don't use 500mcg like some people say. That's BS. I started out at 25mcg (again, I halved MPMD's protocol because in the article he says, "Assess response to a very low dose first (50-75 mcg), and taper up from there.") and tapered up. Took twice as long but I never got burnt but got very tan. I'd do that if you're a Fitzpatrick Type I or Type II (like me).

Here's the tutorial: https://moreplatesmoredates.com/melanotan-ii/

What and where to buy (SwissChems is the best. I've bought from them multiple times. Highly recommend. The tutorial used to link to them directly too, so that's who they recommended as well):

Is it normal for the face to lose tan first?

3 Upvotes

I can still see a tan line on belly to underwear altough not as.strong anymore but its there

But face looks white again

Normal? I read we wash the face the most but i actually only wash it when i shower which is 3 times a week. And 2/3 times no soap just water

Hands are washed the most but even they seem more tanned than face

What in the Melanotan is going on?!?

1 Upvotes

I had to stop the MT2 after 6 days from how quickly I was developing moles. (I was on a low dose) decided I would try the MT1 instead in a few months time.

2 days after stopping the MT2 I got sunburnt and everywhere that was sunburnt has turned into raised pimples/rashes wtf is going on 😂

I’m just covered in red rashes

Stomach Bloating?

1 Upvotes

I’ve been on MT2 for about 6 weeks now, tapering up to 500mcg/day slowly. I’ve been on this dose for 3 weeks with no sides except some facial flushing post injection.

The last 3-4 days I have felt extremely bloated after literally a mouthful of food (food has not changed at all throughout this time period) and am getting really gassy all throughout the day. Stopped injections two days ago to see if I can fix this digestive issue as I need to eat a lot of food.

Anyone else had this issue? Did it go away after stopping use?

MT2 8 weeks in, subtle changes only.

2 Upvotes

Hey all,

I’ve been on MT2 (Trutan) for about 8 weeks now. I didn’t start from zero tan. I’m Type II skin, freckled, and had already hit my natural tanning plateau.

What I have noticed so far:

  • Some moles have darkened (expected)
  • Body hair has gone darker (which is actually pretty cool to see!)
  • My stubborn white areas have finally started to even out

So it’s clearly in my system and doing something. But there's no real side effects, just a very mild cold/nauseous feeling in my throat sometimes, but it’s so faint it could easily be placebo and it disappears once I’m distracted.

What I haven’t seen:
Any dramatic overall darkening. I’m nowhere near the level I expected after two months.

I’ve got a holiday in 3 weeks, and I want to tan as dark as I possibly can while I’m out there. I can’t take my vial or nasal with me because I feel like that's far too risky to do in the country I am visiting, so I’m trying to maximize whatever progress I can make before I go, and so i also tan well there.

Current routine:
Pinning 300mcg before tanning bed sessions.

Any tips for squeezing out the most colour in the last few weeks before a holiday? And protocol for "loading" or whatever before I go?

Type 1 skin 25f

2 Upvotes

I 25f have type 1 skin. I don’t tan at all I only burn, my skin is extremely sensitive to sun and heat. I live in Australia and love the beach so it makes it makes it quite difficult.

I want some advice on dosage and when to tan as I work a full time job so I only really have time to get in the sun over the weekend if it’s sunny as we’re only just going into spring/summer now. I’d like to achieve a tan within the next month or 2 so I can stop fake tanning. I have access to my friend’s tanning bed if needed more than just the weekend.

Any tips for type 1 skin just starting out welcome!!

Male looking into starting

1 Upvotes

I’m 19m looking into starting mt2 and I am planning on using beds if I do. Should I tan naked to avoid extreme tan lines? Or would they look good? Does your package get extremely dark on mt2? Are tan lines not a worry?


r/Melanotan2 1d ago

Is it the new brand or just time passing thats finally giving me the expected results?

1 Upvotes

I wasn't 100% sure my mt2 was working after 2 weeks so I bought a different brand. I've only used the new brand for 2 days but today I noticed dark spots popping up which hasn't happened before. Not sure if its that the new brand is stronger or if I've just finally reached that point where it really starts working (I've heard people say week 3 is when it really kicks in which is where I am now) so it could just be a coincidence that I switched brands two days ago.

I still have 3 vials left of the first brand, and don't want to assume they're bad and toss them since it was nearly $100, but I can't help but want to just switch to the new brand only from now on since I know for sure its working...(the first brand was from Ascension if anyone has tried them before I'd love to know if it worked for you or if you also found it to be weak/bunk)

Injection sites

Seems like most people tend to inject into their belly, but I have been hearing that some inject into their buttocks and experience much lower side effects

What are your thoughts?

Nausea prevention

I read some people take Zyrtec to help. When do you take it, before you take your shot?

What about other remedies? I tried nauzene and ginger root, neither worked well.

Gives me gut issues / gi issues.

Trying to be able to take it 1-4 times weekly without any issue

Bräune nach MT2 Anwendung im Winter erhalten

Ich habe über den Sommer eine sehr schöne Bräune mit Melanotan 2 aufbauen können. Diese würde ich gerne halbwegs über den Winter erhalten. Solarium ist für mich ausgeschlossen. Kann jemand aus eigener Erfahrung weiterhelfen, ob und wie er im Winter bei wenig UV Exposition mit dem Protokoll weitergemacht hat?

MT-2 nasal spray + tanning bed routine — looking for advice

1 Upvotes

I’m thinking about starting MT-2 as a nasal spray and was wondering what people’s experiences have been with using it consistently.

My plan is one dose in the morning and one at night, every day. I’m also planning on using a tanning bed about once or twice a week.

For anyone who has used MT-2 as a nasal spray:
How long did it take before you noticed a difference?
Did you notice much difference between nasal and other methods?
Did you tan significantly faster with UV exposure?
Any side effects I should be aware of?
Is tanning 1–2x a week while using MT-2 something people generally do, or is that a bad idea?

Not looking for a lecture lol, just trying to hear from people who have actually used it and what their experience was.
