Yes the melanotan peptides look to be pretty revolutionary for folks interested in tanning with less UV exposure. It will be pretty amazing if melanotan one, "afamelanotide" manages to get approved for human usage. More info here: Melanotan - afamelanotide - Scenesse Cheers |

This article is seriously biased. They act like having skin that burns really easily isn't a health issue. And what about for use in people with vitiligo? My dad has this condition, and he burns incredibly easily. Also, being olive skinned, he has a similar cosmetic issue as African-Americans with the disease. -janelane |
