    Tanning Injections
    Hi there,

    I heard a few years ago that they were coming out with some sort of injection that permanently tans you...

    Is this true? If so, where in the world would I get something so magnificent?

    I don't think they've come out with anything like that yet CM. I have seen the spray on tans that some girls got. They aren't too bad but the color is sort of an orangy color when it starts to fade.

    I can't get spray on... too pale... I look like Lindsay Lohan. Not cute. I do go tanning in the beds. But thought if there was a UV free permanent solution I'm all over it :P

    I just read about it on Google. The product is called melanotan and you can only use it in trials.

    Melanin Injections, they will make your eyes darker, hair darker, and body hair.. Like any medical procedure it has it's side effects. You need to get them every once in a while though.

    Well my hair is already dark... so... but how does it make your eyes darker?

    Can you please link to where you received this information? Or perhaps where it could be listed?

    Well,for starters you could just go out in the sun like any normal person person.I really don't think anything that you inject under your skin can't be good for you now or in the long run.You never know,you might end up looking like michael jackson.

    The point is that it is UV free, so you know less cancer...

    Your rudeness is not appreciated. There are many things that are injected that ARE good for you, actually.

    And comparing vitiligo to tanning, doesn't even really make sense.

    Well,I don't know what vitiligo is,but either way I'm sure it can't be good down the road.I mean,who knows what's in the shot,let alone the shots we get today.
    Just sounds odd.

    I do. I don't get shots that I am unaware of the contents of. I always do research before going to the doctor. And vitiligo is the disease that Michael Jackson had.
