Does nonapeptide-1 (or melanostatin) work in similar manner as melanotan?

[Liam]

I'm trying to reverse the darkness that melanotan gave me. I have been off melanotan for almost a year, but I'm still dark. My hair doesn't grow dark anymore, but my skin won't respond.

I looked up skin lightening peptides to see if I can reverse the effect of melanotan and came across nonapeptide-1, also called melanostatin.

I'm having a difficult time understanding this peptide, but can it reverse the effects of melanotan? Please help me. I'm at least 6 shades darker than my original tone after having used melanotan for 4 months. I think I had a late reaction to it.

Can nonapeptide-1 lighten skin?

Actually this peptide is designed to do the opposite. It's supposed to actually lower the melanin production, whereas Melanotan 2 increases it.

Yes that's what I'm trying to do. I want to use it to reverse the effects of melanotan.

Do you think it should work on lightening my skin back to its original tone?

Sorry I didn't try this yet.
