What It Is

MT-1 (Melanotan I, Afamelanotide) is a synthetic analog of alpha-MSH that selectively activates MC1R (melanocortin 1 receptor). It is FDA-approved in Europe for erythropoietic protoporphyria and has been studied for skin protection, tanning, and anti inflammatory effects.

What It Does

MT-1 stimulates melanin production in the skin, providing a natural tan and UV protection. It also has anti inflammatory effects, reduces appetite modestly, and has been studied for its protective effects against UV-induced DNA damage. It is more selective than MT-2 and does not produce the sexual side effects associated with MT-2.

How It Works

MT-1 activates MC1R receptors in melanocytes, stimulating the production and distribution of eumelanin (dark pigment) throughout the skin. This provides photoprotection by absorbing UV radiation before it can damage DNA. The anti inflammatory effects are mediated through MC1R activation in immune cells.

Who Benefits Most

People who want a natural tan without excessive sun exposure. People with fair skin who burn easily. Anyone looking for UV protection. People interested in the anti inflammatory and skin-protective effects of melanocortin activation.

Protocol and Dosing

Typical dose: 0.5 to 1 mg injected subcutaneously once daily or every other day. Combine with moderate sun exposure for best tanning results. Cycle length: 4 to 8 weeks.
