Sunekos
Sunekos is a collagen booster injectable treatment that combines Hyaluronic Acid and Amino Acids to promote the bio-regeneration of the skins Extracellular Matrix (ECM).
Sunekos stimulates the fibroblasts in the skin to produce collagen and elastin – the skins scaffolding for plump and tight skin.
It combats and improves a range of symptoms of ageing through deep hydration, encouraging natural volume and plumping through collagen production and tightening.

Medically reviewed by the MDT Advisory Committee for The Cosmetic Skin Clinic. Last reviewed on 16th December 2023.
Sunekos’ unique combination stimulates the production of collagen and elastin in the deeper layers of the skin, improving its overall condition. This treatment allows you to naturally rejuvenate yourself with your own collagen rebuilding abilities.
Sunekos was created for Dermal Biogenesis, which is the natural regeneration of our skins dermal tissue, and this entails restoring our skins’ two favourite youthful components: elastin and collagen. These give the skin its elasticity and natural volume.
Sunekos Treatment Areas
Sunekos is a versatile injectable treatment that can be used across several areas where skin quality, hydration and elasticity are key concerns.
Sunekos for the face
Sunekos can help to improve the appearance of fine lines, dullness, dehydration and early skin laxity on the face. It may be suitable for patients who want a fresher, smoother and more radiant appearance without adding volume. The treatment works by supporting collagen and elastin production, helping to improve the skin’s texture and resilience over time.
Sunekos around the eyes
The eye area is delicate and often shows early signs of ageing, fatigue and skin thinning. Sunekos may be recommended for patients concerned with fine lines, crepey skin, dark circles or tired-looking eyes. Because Sunekos focuses on skin quality rather than volume, it may be considered for patients who are not suitable for tear trough filler or who would benefit from a more regenerative approach to the under-eye area.
Sunekos for the neck and décolletage
The neck and décolletage can become crepey, dry or lined as collagen, elastin and hydration levels reduce. Sunekos may help to improve skin quality in these areas by supporting hydration, firmness and elasticity. It may be suitable for patients with fine lines, mild laxity or early signs of ageing on the neck and chest.
Sunekos for the hands
The hands can reveal signs of ageing through thinning skin, crepiness and reduced elasticity. Sunekos may be recommended where the main concern is skin quality, hydration and texture rather than volume loss. For patients with more visible volume loss, veins or tendons, a dedicated hand rejuvenation treatment plan may be more suitable.
Sunekos for selected body areas
Sunekos may also be used on selected body areas such as the arms, knees or inner thighs, where skin may appear crepey, loose or less resilient. Your practitioner will assess the area carefully and advise whether Sunekos is appropriate, or whether another skin-tightening or skin-quality treatment would be better suited to your concerns.
Sunekos 200 and Sunekos Performa
Sunekos is available in different formulations, including Sunekos 200 and Sunekos Performa.
Sunekos 200 is referenced in published clinical studies and is commonly associated with skin quality, hydration, elasticity and fine-line improvement. Sunekos Performa is a newer formulation within the Sunekos range and may be discussed by patients who have researched the treatment online.
At The Cosmetic Skin Clinic, your practitioner will advise which Sunekos formulation or treatment protocol is most suitable for your skin concerns. This will depend on the area being treated, your skin quality, age, treatment goals and whether Sunekos is being used alone or as part of a wider skin rejuvenation plan.
Before publishing this section, please confirm with the clinical team whether CSC currently uses Sunekos 200, Sunekos Performa, Sunekos 1200 or another Sunekos protocol.
Benefits of Sunekos treatment
Sunekos can help to improve skin quality from within by supporting hydration, elasticity and collagen production.
Improved skin hydration
Sunekos contains hyaluronic acid, which helps to support hydration within the skin and improve overall skin freshness.
Collagen and elastin support
The amino acid blend in Sunekos helps to stimulate fibroblast activity, supporting the skin’s natural production of collagen and elastin.
Smoother-looking skin
By improving hydration, firmness and elasticity, Sunekos can help to soften the appearance of fine lines and crepey skin.
Under-eye rejuvenation
Sunekos may be suitable for delicate areas such as the under-eyes, where patients may be concerned with fine lines, crepiness, dark circles or a tired-looking appearance.
Natural-looking results
Sunekos does not work in the same way as traditional volumising fillers. The aim is to improve the skin’s condition gradually, creating a fresher and more natural-looking result.
Minimal downtime
Most patients can return to normal activities soon after treatment. Some mild redness, swelling or bruising may occur, but this usually settles within a few days.
Suitable for combination treatment plans
Sunekos may be used alone or as part of a wider skin-quality plan, depending on your concerns and the result you would like to achieve.
Who is suitable for Sunekos treatment?
Sunekos may be suitable for patients who want to improve skin quality, hydration and elasticity without adding visible volume.
It may be considered for patients concerned with:
- Fine lines
- Crepey skin
- Dull or tired-looking skin
- Reduced elasticity
- Mild skin laxity
- Dehydrated skin
- Under-eye ageing
- Dark circles
- Early signs of ageing
- Skin that looks less firm or resilient
Sunekos may be especially suitable for patients looking for a subtle and progressive improvement in skin quality. It can also be helpful for patients who do not want a filler-like result but would still like to improve the appearance of ageing or tired-looking skin.
Your practitioner will assess your skin, medical history and treatment goals before advising whether Sunekos is suitable for you.
What happens during Sunekos treatment?
Your treatment will begin with a detailed consultation with one of our qualified practitioners.
They will assess your skin quality, treatment area and individual concerns before recommending whether Sunekos is the right option for you. They will also explain how many sessions may be required and what type of result you can realistically expect.
If treatment is suitable, Sunekos will be placed into the skin using precise injection techniques. Treatment is usually quick and well tolerated.
You may notice some improvement in skin freshness and hydration after your first session, although results usually develop gradually as the skin responds to treatment. A course of treatments may be recommended for best results.
Your practitioner will provide aftercare advice and explain when maintenance treatments may be recommended.
How Sunekos treatment works
Sunekos is an injectable advanced skin booster treatment with a patented formula of lower weight hyaluronic acid and patented cluster of Amino Acids. Its antioxidant properties target wrinkles and damaged skin on the face and neck.
It promotes the restoration of ECM homeostasis (which is essential for our skins development and wound healing) in the ageing process. Through supporting the regenerative phase, it counteracts oxidative stress, which is a factor in wrinkles. Sunekos also favours the restoration of the skin elasticity and natural volumes.

FAQ

Sunekos is not better or worse than Botox or dermal filler; it works in a different way and treats different concerns.
Anti-wrinkle injections are used to soften lines caused by repeated facial movement. Dermal fillers are usually used to restore volume, support facial structure or enhance contours.
Sunekos focuses on improving skin quality from within by supporting hydration, collagen and elastin production. It may be suitable for patients who want to improve fine lines, crepiness, elasticity or tired-looking skin without adding volume.
In some cases, your practitioner may recommend combining Sunekos with other treatments as part of a personalised plan.
No, Sunekos is not a traditional dermal filler.
Although Sunekos contains hyaluronic acid, it is not used to create structure, contour or volume in the same way as a filler. Instead, it combines hyaluronic acid with amino acids to support skin quality, hydration and elasticity.
This makes Sunekos more suitable for patients who want to improve the condition of the skin itself, rather than reshape or volumise a specific area.
Sunekos can take up to 7 days to start to work and show gradual results.
Yes, Sunekos is considered to be quite safe because of its patented formula of hyaluronic acid and amino acids which give it a good safety profile.
If you don’t want to go down the Filler and Botox route and want the more natural process of Sunekos then this is the treatment for you. If you want results that are natural looking, rejuvenated glowing skin with reduced signs of ageing then Sunekos is worth it. It gives your skin that starting push to create collagen and elastin and your body naturally takes over this familiar process.
Sunekos and Profhilo are both injectable treatments used to improve skin quality, but they work in different ways.
Profhilo is a hyaluronic acid-based treatment designed to improve hydration, elasticity and skin remodelling. Sunekos combines hyaluronic acid with amino acids to support the skin’s extracellular matrix and stimulate collagen and elastin production.
Sunekos may be considered for delicate areas such as around the eyes, forehead or mouth lines, depending on suitability. Profhilo may be recommended where the main concern is broader hydration, elasticity or mild skin laxity.
Your practitioner will assess your skin and advise which treatment is most suitable for your concerns.
Yes, there are published studies supporting the use of Sunekos and its combination of hyaluronic acid and amino acids.
Your practitioner can discuss the evidence, suitability and expected results with you during your consultation.
A Sunekos 200 study shows the positive efficacy impact on antiwrinkle, superficial and deep moisturising activity and elasticising properties. This includes improvements to cheek volume, reshaping of face silhouette, reduction of deep wrinkles and superficial wrinkles, lifting effect and more.
Another study was done to evaluate the efficacy of combining amino acid and hyaluronic acid to stimulate the production of extracellular matrix (ECM) components like elastin and collagen.
