Want That Perfect Summer Bronze Look With Melanotan Injections?

The Tanning Injections

Everyone in this world wishes to have the perfect tan during the summer. Many of us even take some more significant steps like applying lotions, spray tans, creams, gels, foams, tanning tablets, and many more. In all these situations, using self-tan requires a lot of skill and patience. Plus, it gets irritating when you cannot see what you expect after all the time spent waiting for the perfect tan. Well, there is something which can be helpful in these situations.

The melanotan injections or tanning injections are a synthetic hormone injected via a needle under the skin. It produces more melanin, giving you tan by stimulating the pigment cells in your body.

Activate your Hormones

Well, Melanotan is a lab-made chemical and is similar to a hormone found in our body called “melanocyte-stimulating hormone.” It is the hormone responsible for the increase in the production of skin-darkening pigments. Treating skin cancer was the main reason behind the making of this product. But now, it is mostly sold over the internet as a supplement and for skin tanning. It speeds up the production of melanin, the pigment that absorbs ultraviolet radiation and gives our skin its color. There are two forms of melanotan injections widely available: diluting in water before giving or injecting to a person.

• Melanotan I- It is an alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha MSH) analog. It stimulates the production of eumelanin, which is also a tanning pigment in our skin.
• Melanotan II- It is also a tanning injection which gives a much better and long-lasting result. But, it will show its effects if you are having some form of UV exposure. Therefore, it’s a piece of general advice to get a minimum of 20 minutes of natural sunlight a day to help activate the injection.

Quicker and Long term solution

Well, getting a summer body or a summer glow without roasting in the sun for hours or applying a smelly lotion is a lot more appealing. Even when you top on some spray tans, you have to worry about its duration as they do not last long and generally fade away too quickly. In these cases also, the injectable tan is more beneficial. They do not have an odor or wash off, plus it is a more long-term solution for maintaining that perfect bronze look. Apart from darkening your skin, these injections have some other uses as well.

 Research suggests that Melanotan shots can help men treat erectile dysfunction. It also prevents skin cancer due to skin exposure, when given a shot under the skin. But, there are not many pieces of evidence for it as well. So, now it is evident why people prefer sunless tanning over lying down for hours in the sun.
