Melanotan II is a synthetic analog of the naturally occurring melanocortin peptide hormone alpha-MSH. It is known for its ability to stimulate melanin production, leading to enhanced skin pigmentation (tanning), as well as its notable effects on libido and sexual function.
Initially developed for photoprotection research, Melanotan II has become widely used in scientific studies for its dual impact on both skin darkening and the stimulation of sexual arousal through activation of melanocortin receptors in the central nervous system.
