Sunekos is a revolutionary skin rejuvenation treatment now available at Skin Enhance and Wellness in Billericay, Essex. I’ve personally completed a full course, and the results speak for themselves—my skin feels smoother, more hydrated, and naturally radiant.

In this blog, I’ll explain what Sunekos is, how it differs from other injectables, what results you can expect, and the ideal treatment course.

What is Sunekos and How Does It Work?

Sunekos is a regenerative injectable that combines hyaluronic acid with amino acids, the essential building blocks of collagen and elastin. This unique combination works on the extracellular matrix (ECM), helping your skin to restore hydration, elasticity, and overall quality.

Unlike dermal fillers, which focus on adding volume, or Profhilo, which hydrates and stimulates collagen without amino acids, Sunekos targets skin structure and health. Polynucleotides also regenerate at a cellular level but lack the amino acids needed to support collagen production. By addressing the ECM directly and supplying the building blocks for new collagen, Sunekos improves short-term hydration, skin texture, and long-term skin health.

The Science Behind Sunekos: What Makes It Unique

At the heart of Sunekos is its patented blend of hyaluronic acid and six essential amino acids — the vital building blocks your skin needs to stay firm, hydrated, and healthy.

This combination, known as the HYAA formula, helps your skin rebuild its extracellular matrix (ECM) — the structure that keeps your skin plump and resilient. While hyaluronic acid deeply hydrates, the amino acids (Glycine, Proline, Lysine, Leucine, Valine, and Alanine) stimulate your skin’s natural production of collagen and elastin, improving texture and tone from within.

Together, these ingredients don’t just smooth fine lines on the surface — they work beneath the skin to restore strength, elasticity, and glow over time. The result is healthier, more radiant skin that looks naturally refreshed rather than “treated.”

Sunekos vs Other Injectables: Which Is Right for You?

Sunekos

Key Benefits: Hydrates deeply, stimulates collagen and elastin, improves elasticity, texture, and skin brightness.

How It Differs: Regenerates the extracellular matrix, uses both amino acids and hyaluronic acid, supports long-term skin health and natural rejuvenation. Ideal for patients wanting subtle, gradual improvement in overall skin quality.

Profhilo

Key Benefits: Hydrates the skin, stimulates collagen.

How It Differs: Does not include amino acids, focuses on skin laxity and hydration rather than full ECM regeneration. Great for clients looking for hydration and firmness without targeting the full structure of the skin.

Polynucleotides

Key Benefits: Promotes cellular regeneration and repair.

How It Differs: Lacks the amino acids needed for collagen production, so visible results may take longer. Best suited for clients focusing on cellular-level skin repair rather than immediate texture improvements.

Dermal Fillers

Key Benefits: Adds volume and contour to targeted areas, such as cheeks, lips, and under-eyes.

How It Differs: Does not improve skin elasticity, texture, or overall quality. Excellent for clients who need structural volume rather than holistic rejuvenation.

What a Full Course Can Achieve

A complete Sunekos course typically includes 3–4 sessions spaced two weeks apart, with maintenance sessions every six months. Each appointment lasts around an hour and can treat the whole face, or focus on areas such as the neck, décolletage, hands, or under-eye region.

For optimal results, Dr Tash uses a combination of Sunekos 1200 and Sunekos Performa. The protocol begins with Sunekos 1200 and Performa during the first session — this stage focuses on repairing the skin and providing an immediate filling and smoothing effect. The following sessions use Sunekos Performa alone to rebuild collagen and elastin, maintaining and enhancing your skin’s structure for long-lasting bio-renovation and natural rejuvenation.

Results you can expect:

Reduced fine lines and wrinkles

Improved hydration and elasticity

Brighter, more even skin tone

Enhanced skin texture and firmness

Results show improved skin hydration, elasticity, and radiance.

Research shows Sunekos stimulates elastin and collagen types IV and VII, supporting natural skin regeneration for a youthful appearance. Its amino acid profile also helps brighten and revitalise the skin, offering subtle, visible results without altering facial expressions.

Treatment Course, Downtime & Aftercare

After completing your Sunekos treatment protocol — which starts with Sunekos 1200 to repair and restore skin structure, followed by Sunekos Performa sessions to rebuild and maintain collagen — you can expect minimal downtime. Immediately after treatment, small visible bumps (or “blebs”) may appear at the injection points; these typically settle within a few hours. Some mild redness or swelling is possible, but most patients resume normal activities the same day.

Makeup should be avoided for the first 24 hours, and it’s best to protect your skin with sunscreen while avoiding direct sun exposure for 2–3 weeks. A gentle evening massage of the treated areas, starting from the day after treatment, helps to distribute the product evenly and enhance results. Maintaining a good daily skincare routine and adequate hydration will further support long-term collagen stimulation and skin health.

My Experience:
About four hours post-treatment, the bumps had settled. The following morning, my skin looked calm and refreshed. Using gentle skincare helped reduce any residual redness or irritation.
