What Is Sunekos?
Regenerating skin from the inside out
Sunekos is a skin booster treatment that works differently from traditional dermal fillers and other skin boosters. It uses a patented formula combining a specific blend of amino acids with non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid to stimulate the regeneration of the extracellular matrix (ECM) — the structural framework of the skin responsible for firmness, hydration, and elasticity.
By targeting the ECM directly, Sunekos encourages the body’s natural production of both collagen and elastin, leading to visibly improved skin quality — smoother, more hydrated, and more elastic skin with reduced fine lines and improved tone.
Sunekos is available in two formulations: Sunekos 200 for lighter skin rejuvenation and delicate areas such as the under-eye region, and Sunekos 1200 for more advanced skin ageing and deeper tissue regeneration. Dr Katherine will recommend the most appropriate formulation during your consultation.
Did You Know?
Sunekos is the only injectable treatment with a patented formula of amino acids and hyaluronic acid that has been clinically shown to regenerate the extracellular matrix. It is particularly well suited for treating the delicate under-eye area, where many other skin boosters cannot be used.

Book NowWhat to Expect During Treatment
1. Consultation & Assessment
Dr Katherine will assess your skin quality, discuss your concerns and goals, and determine whether Sunekos is the most suitable treatment for you. A personalised treatment plan will be created, including the recommended formulation.
2. Preparation
The treatment area is cleansed and topical anaesthetic cream is applied to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
3. Injection
Sunekos is administered via multiple small injections across the treatment area using fine needles. The product is distributed evenly to stimulate the extracellular matrix and encourage natural regeneration. The process is quick and well tolerated.
4. Aftercare
Dr Katherine will provide aftercare guidance. Small bumps or mild redness may be visible at injection sites but typically settle within a few hours. You can return to normal activities straight away.
5. Follow-Up Sessions
The standard Sunekos protocol involves a course of 4 sessions spaced 7–10 days apart. Completing the full course is important for achieving optimal extracellular matrix regeneration and lasting results.
Recommended Treatment Schedule
Sunekos is administered as a course of 4 sessions, spaced 7–10 days apart. This protocol allows the amino acid and hyaluronic acid formula to progressively stimulate the extracellular matrix, building on each session for cumulative results.
After completing the initial course, results typically last around 6 months. Maintenance courses are recommended every 6 months to sustain the improvements in skin quality, hydration, and elasticity.
Dr Katherine will advise on the ideal schedule based on your skin’s response and your individual goals.

What Our Clients Say
Frequently Asked Questions
Both are skin boosters but work differently. Profhilo uses a high concentration of pure hyaluronic acid to hydrate and bio-remodel the skin. Sunekos combines a patented blend of amino acids with hyaluronic acid to specifically regenerate the extracellular matrix, stimulating both collagen and elastin production. Sunekos is also particularly well suited for treating the delicate under-eye area. Dr Katherine can advise which treatment is best for your skin during consultation.
Most patients find the treatment very comfortable. Topical anaesthetic cream is applied before treatment, and fine needles are used to minimise discomfort. A brief, mild pinching sensation may be felt at each injection point, but the procedure is quick and well tolerated.
The standard Sunekos protocol involves a course of 4 treatment sessions spaced 7–10 days apart. Completing the full course is important for achieving the best results. Maintenance courses are then recommended every 6 months.
Some patients notice improvements in skin hydration and quality during the course of treatment. However, the full regenerative effects — including improved elasticity, firmness, and skin quality — are typically visible around 4 to 6 weeks after completing the course, as collagen and elastin production increases over time.
Downtime is minimal. Small bumps or mild redness may appear at injection sites but usually settle within a few hours. Mild bruising can occasionally occur but resolves quickly. Most patients return to normal activities straight away.
Yes. Sunekos works well alongside other treatments such as anti-wrinkle injections, dermal fillers, and Profhilo. Dr Katherine can advise on the best combination and timing to complement your overall aesthetic goals.
Sunekos 200 is a lighter formulation ideal for fine lines and delicate areas such as the
under-eye region. Sunekos 1200 is a more concentrated formula designed for deeper skin
regeneration and more advanced signs of ageing. Dr Katherine will recommend the most
suitable formulation based on your skin assessment during consultation.
Sunekos can be used to treat various areas including the under-eye region, cheeks, jawline, and neck.
As well as improving skin quality on the face, it can also be used to rejuvenate the skin on the
hands and reduce sagging skin.
