I am also Type I--red hair, pale skin, many small freckles, blue eyes. I've been using MTII for about 6 weeks now. I'm up to 1mg per night. I now have a deep, golden tan on my face and upper body; my legs are not as dark as they don't get as much sun exposure. (I also use a tanning bed about 2-3 times a week, which is still unnerving as it flies in the face of everything I know about how damaging that is to the skin.) I use the 29 gauge needles also. I add 1 syringe full of water to the 10mg vial of MTII. Roll the vial gently on its side, wait a minute or so. I then load to the 10 tick-mark line on the syringe, which is 1mg of the mixture. However, if you're just starting, you need to start at a lower dose. I started at 2.5 tick marks on the syringe and gradually built up to 10 tick marks. You could add 2 syringes full of water but then you'd have to inject more, as it is more diluted. By the way, I was worried about my freckles turning black, as I'd heard from some people. However, they haven't. I have had more freckles appear, and some have gotten darker, but it's barely noticeable and not a big deal to me. I'm more concerned about the fact that you HAVE to have sun or tanning-bed exposure in order to develop a tan using MTII. I'm worried about getting a lot more wrinkles from that, so I don't know if this is a long-term thing for me. Hope this helps!

Goal for melanotan usage is to remove sun/tanning from the equation. The unhealthy amounts of exposure it generally takes in nature (to tan skin) is dramatically reduced with proper melanocortin peptide use. Great to illustrate (and plan for) the melanogenesis which will take place within the upper-trunk portion of the body. 5-10 min of sun is great to have daily...sad to think a couple 20-30 min exposures to light would age the body rapidly. True, melanotan is a poor sunless tanner...however it sure does help tan w/ less sun!
Best advice to Mimi is reduce dosage & tanning by at least 50%, focusing on balancing tone throughout entire body - had one choose med-long term melanotan therapy...tan lines disappear from systemic tan results after months of maintenance. Don't burn your skin please
Alrighty got 30 mins of sun each side today decent amount of red front and back, and hopefully it will turn into a tan........Will be 2 weeks tmr and will update my log accordinglly.
couple quick questions, I really dont experience any sides apart from feeling tired for a bit, and "maybe" increased random boners, but nothing like what people are saying, so is this stuff I got from europatan actually working? or should I be worried im wasting my time/money?
Also If you could post or message me a couple of your top/best suppliers, I would be greatly appreciative.* ]
O and thanks mimi for the input.
/19/12-day 12..600mcg no sides
/20/12-day 13..600mcg no sides
/21/12-day 14..600mcg no sides
/22/12-day 15..600mcg no sides
Well good news kind of. After that last sunbathing session for 30mins each side, I do believe the red has faded to a slight brown tht even I notice. Now its not REAL noticeable, and it's only in certain light, but I almost certaintley see brown on my belly and back..........my arms,face,neck, andlegs dont seem to have changed much which is weird since I thought my arms neck and face would show a difference before my belly would since they were already slightly brownish red, but I guess not.
Its been a couple days since, and today I went out 20 each side again no burning so to speak yet so will see if tht turns a little darker. Will keep everyone posted!* 8)
UPDATE!!! Ok so its been almost 3 weeks now and, about 11mg in, with around 4/5 hours total of sun exposure each side.....and I have to say im starting to definatley see some color!* Mainly on my belly and back but I would say theres a nice change all over even a little on my legs...( just a little ). I also have noticed a few new moles and some darkening of others Ive had, nothing bad though, also a couple new?? freckles, but again not bad ( would easily take the color over them )
So yea getting really exited!!!, and I'll be updating my log again here soon. Heres a before and after photo, mind you the lighting mite not be the same, bu i can assure its pretty close, and you should hopefully see the difference.* **again I want to add that I really am a type 1 no doubt, and even though it mite work this fast for some, I think the reason its working so fast for me is because Ive already had about a month and half of slowly building up my uv tolerance, so I was able to start getting alot more sunlight then other type 1s off the bat without getting a burn.*** *

hi i live in birmingham, uk* i am wondering where i can actually get some from as i cannot trust many of the sites and desperate to get started

Not only does your question lack courtesy - it's clear your desperation and lack of trust/resourcefulness leaves you far from an appropriate candidate for successful or responsible experimentation
agreed; peptides require hours of research and careful consideration.* there are CONSTANT reminders of this throughout this blog.* since you don't know that, best is for you do perform the proper due diligence and report back with key questions/info gaps that pertain to your goals etc that have been unanswered by previous postings.* this is the best use of the moderator and others time.
