The man says he injected himself daily for five months with controversial drug, Melanotan-II and the drug turned his skin color completely dark.

Melanotan-II as the name implies will react similar to natural occuring melanocyte-stimulating hormone in the body to increase/stimulate the secretion of melanin in the body which is responsible for the skin's dark complexion if in high concentrations.


This supplement as it is best referred to, is commonly used for tanning. This man must have used it in excess to become completely dark.
