Melanocortin tanning stack

Melanotan II and PT-141—different peptides, often confused.

Both hit melanocortin pathways but PT-141 (bremelanotide) is an FDA-approved drug for a specific indication—not a tanning spray.

Practical notes

  • Avoid unregulated melanotan injections—mole changes have been reported.
  • Spray tans and SPF are safer cosmetic options.
  • See a dermatologist for new or changing moles.
