Melanotan II

Melanotan II is a synthetic peptide analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH), designed to bind melanocortin receptors, particularly MC1R, found on melanocytes in the skin. Activation of this receptor pathway stimulates melanocytes to increase melanin production and distribution. Because melanin production is the body's natural pigmentation and photoprotective response, Melanotan II is studied for its role in supporting pigmentation pathways, often used seasonally as part of an individualized plan. EdgeRx offers Melanotan II through a clinician-supervised protocol, prescribed by licensed physicians for eligible patients as part of an individualized skin and pigmentation-focused plan.
