Introduction

Sunekos Treatment in Essex

Sunekos combines hyaluronic acid with a specific blend of amino acids to support collagen and elastin production and improve overall skin quality.

Treatment Overview

What Is Sunekos?

Sunekos is an injectable treatment containing hyaluronic acid and amino acids. These ingredients are used to support the extracellular matrix, the network of proteins and other substances that gives the skin structure and resilience.

The treatment is designed to encourage the production of collagen and elastin. Collagen helps provide strength and support, while elastin allows the skin to stretch and return to its original shape.

How it works

Sunekos for the Under-Eye Area

Sunekos can be used beneath the eyes, where the skin is naturally thin and often shows early signs of ageing. Treatment may help improve hydration, fine lines, crepey texture and overall skin quality around the eyes.

It does not replace lost volume in the same way as tear trough filler and will not remove prominent eye bags. Your practitioner will assess the area and explain whether Sunekos is appropriate for your concerns.

How Is Sunekos Different from Other Skin Boosters?

Restylane Skinboosters use stabilised hyaluronic acid microinjections to improve hydration, smoothness and skin texture. Sunekos also contains hyaluronic acid, but combines it with amino acids intended to support collagen, elastin and the extracellular matrix. This gives Sunekos a stronger focus on skin bio-regeneration as well as hydration. Neither treatment is universally better. The most suitable option depends on your skin, treatment area and goals.

How Can Sunekos Improve Skin Quality?

Sunekos may help improve:

Fine lines and wrinkles

Dry or dehydrated skin

Thin or crepey skin

Reduced firmness and elasticity

Dull or tired-looking skin

Uneven skin texture

Results develop progressively as the skin responds to the treatment course. The aim is to support skin health and quality without significantly changing your natural facial features.

Consultation

Your Sunekos Consultation

Your consultation will include a review of your medical history, medication, previous treatments and current skin concerns. Your practitioner will assess your skin and explain the recommended treatment areas, likely benefits, limitations, potential side effects and treatment course.

There is no pressure to proceed if you are unsure.

The Treatment Process

What happens during treatment?

The skin will be cleaned before Sunekos is administered using a series of small injections.

Temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, bruising or small raised bumps may occur. These effects usually settle, although swelling around the eyes may remain visible for longer. Appointments take approximately 30 minutes, and you will receive personalised aftercare advice before leaving the clinic.

When will I see results?

Sunekos results develop gradually as the treatment course supports collagen and elastin production.

Smooth Dimensions usually recommends three to four sessions, spaced approximately seven to fourteen days apart. In some cases, up to three weeks may be left between appointments. A maintenance treatment may then be recommended every six to nine months, depending on your skin, response and treatment goals.

Faqs

Sunekos FAQs

Have questions before booking? Here are the most common things patients ask about consultations, pricing, results, downtime and suitability.

The first and second Sunekos treatments cost £250 each. The third session costs £200, bringing the total cost of a three-treatment course to £700. The cost of an additional fourth session or future maintenance will be confirmed as part of your treatment plan.

Sunekos may be worthwhile if you want gradual improvements in hydration, fine lines, elasticity and skin quality without adding facial volume. Its value depends on your concerns, expectations and willingness to complete the recommended course.

Neither is universally better. Profhilo primarily supports hydration and bio-remodelling using a fluid hyaluronic acid formulation. Sunekos combines hyaluronic acid with amino acids to support collagen, elastin and skin regeneration.

Sunekos and polynucleotides use different ingredients. Sunekos combines hyaluronic acid with amino acids, while polynucleotide treatments support fibroblast activity and skin repair using purified polynucleotides. Your practitioner can recommend the most suitable option.

Results vary between patients. After the initial course, maintenance is commonly recommended every six to nine months to support hydration, elasticity and skin quality.

Smooth Dimensions usually recommends an initial course of three to four sessions. Your individual plan will depend on your skin, treatment area and response.

Temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, bruising and small bumps can occur. Swelling may be more visible around the eyes. Less common complications are possible with any injectable treatment and will be discussed during consultation.

Treatment may not be suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, when there is an active skin infection, or for people with certain medical conditions or medications. A full medical assessment is required.
