Abstract
Self enhancement products have become increasingly popular options to achieve tanning in the pursuit of darker complexion. This practice is relatively popular among both men and women for aesthetic purposes. Melanotan-I and melanotan-II are synthetic alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) analogues that stimulate tanning, which are available in two forms, injectable and nasal spray, and can be purchased via online portals and media outlets. The health consequences of these products range from minor to acute and chronic clinical outcomes. Sunless tanning products are alternatively, perceived as “healthy alternatives” to sunbathing, however, no consistent data on their safety is standardized.
