This Guy On Reddit Has Spent Years Injecting Himself With Unregulated Tanning Peptide ‘Melanotan 2’
A guy on Reddit has spent years injecting himself with the unregulated tanning peptide, Melanotan 2.
This is a drug that isn’t approved for use in any country in the world, so he’s truly breaking new ground here.
From this…
To this…
Is that the look he was going for? It’s hard to say because Reddit have deleted the thread he posted due to policies regarding the promotion of unapproved, dangerous, or unregulated substances. Which is a shame because this genius was on course to advance medical science more than 90% of biology PhD holders, simply by making himself his own guinea pig.
Naturally, he’s being meme’d into oblivion…

Melanotan 2 poses several critical health hazards including mole changes, hormonal disruptions and systemic toxicity, so that explains why it’s unapproved and probably a very bad idea to try it. Still, it is widely sold on e-commerce platforms and illicit supply chains under the guise of “research chemicals only.”
I guess time will tell how it works out for this guy. So far, he’s looking fantastic!
