A Safer, Healthier Way to Achieve a Golden Glow


While you could spend countless hours under the sun trying to achieve that perfect tan, is it truly worth the potential risks to your skin? Prolonged and unprotected sun exposure not only increases the chances of harmful effects, but it can also lead to long-term skin damage. Prolonged sun exposure can lead to:

  • Sagging skin
  • Brown spots, wrinkles, and blemishes
  • Painful sunburn
  • Accelerated aging
  • Uneven melanin production

Melanotan 2 offers a smarter alternative. With our tanning injections, you can achieve a flawless, golden glow with minimal UV exposure — keeping your skin youthful, radiant, and healthy.

After completing a tanning course with Melanotan 2, you'll enjoy a natural, sun-kissed tan — free from sunburn, dark spots, and wrinkles. Just smooth, glowing skin.

Perfect for use with sunbeds, Melanotan 2 reduces the risk of overexposure, helping you maintain healthy skin while still achieving that perfect tan. Tanning has never been safer or easier.

What is Melanotan 2 and How Does It Work?

Melanotan 2 is a lab-synthesised version of the body’s natural melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH), which is responsible for the production of melanin, the pigment that gives skin its colour. Enhancing melanin production helps create a natural defence against UV damage, allowing you to achieve a deep, even tan with significantly less sun exposure. With just a few sessions a month, you can enjoy a long-lasting glow without the dangers of overexposure. 

Originally developed in the 1990s by researchers Victor J. Hruby and Mac E. Hadley at the University of Arizona, Melanotan 2 was created with a mission: to provide a safer way to tan while minimising the risks of skin cancer from excessive UV exposure. Compared to the body’s natural version, Melanotan 2 is over 1,000 times more potent. After further refinement, this advanced version was introduced and is now available at Glow Tan. What makes it unique? Melanotan 2 not only delivers a more durable tan, but it also offers additional benefits, such as improving erectile function in men.

 

Are There Any Side Effects of Melanotan 2?

For most users, side effects are rare and tend to be mild. Common reactions may include nausea, yawning, facial flushing, mild leg aches, or occasional spontaneous erections in men, all of which typically subside after a few uses. If you’re new to Melanotan 2 or have sensitive skin, it’s advisable to start with a smaller dose. 

  1. Begin with 0.025ml, or dilute it with bacteriostatic water
    10 mg & 20 mg Starter Kits → 3 ml Bac Water
    Nasal Kit → two 3 ml Bac Water vials
  2.  Take 0.1ml per session.

This gradual approach will allow your body to adapt more comfortably.

It’s also common for freckles or moles to temporarily darken, but they’ll return to their original colour once you stop the treatment and the product clears from your system. After beginning your Melanotan 2 regimen, you’ll quickly notice a smooth, sun-kissed glow developing—naturally, safely, and with ease.
