Ageing shows itself slowly. A little crepe under the eyes. Skin that does not bounce back quite the way it used to. If you are wondering whether Sunekos treatment can genuinely restore firmness and brightness without adding volume, the short answer is yes. Sunekos uses a precise blend of amino acids and non-cross linked hyaluronic acid to support your skin’s natural collagen and elastic fibres, helping you look refreshed without changing your structure.
At The Stockbridge Clinic in Edinburgh, we see more men and women choosing regenerative injectables because they want subtle, gradual improvement. Sunekos fits this perfectly. It works with your skin biology rather than forcing a change, making it ideal for anyone who wants skin that feels stronger, smoother and more hydrated as they age.
Below, we take you through how it works, what it treats, who benefits most, and why our medical approach ensures safe, natural-looking results every time.
Sunekos is a regenerative injectable that uses a patented formula of amino acids and hyaluronic acid to prompt dermal regeneration. It supports fibroblasts, encourages new collagen, and improves elastic fibre function.
Once injected, Sunekos fuels the fibroblasts responsible for producing collagen and elastin. This means the improvement comes from within your own tissues, not from artificial volume.
Traditional fillers add structure. Skin boosters focus on hydration. Sunekos does something different. It supports skin remodelling at a cellular level, improving tone, fine lines and hydration without expanding or altering your facial shape.
Because Sunekos stimulates genuine cell activity, its results appear across a range of age-related concerns.
It improves the thin, papery texture that often appears around the eyes, cheeks and neck.
Sunekos is well known for this. It strengthens the fragile tissue under the eyes, reducing shadows and light hollowing without puffiness.
By encouraging elastic fibre production, Sunekos helps skin feel firmer and more resilient.
The hyaluronic acid draws moisture into the skin, improving radiance and giving a healthier surface texture.
We see strong responses from those in their late thirties through to their seventies. Anyone showing early to moderate tissue thinning will benefit.
It suits all skin tones and most skin types. During your skin consultation, the medical team will assess your history, lifestyle and current concerns to build a plan that fits your needs.
Most patients notice fresher, brighter skin within two to three weeks, with firmness building gradually as collagen develops.
After the full course, results often last up to six months before a maintenance session is recommended.
Our approach at The Stockbridge Clinic is always consultation-led and medically supervised. We do not offer one-off treatments without proper assessment.
During your consultation, your clinician examines your skin quality, collagen levels, hydration and elasticity. This is also where we may recommend complementary treatments such as Laser Genesis to improve redness or texture if needed.
Sunekos is placed using tiny injections in very precise points. Most people find the process straightforward with minimal discomfort.
Downtime is minimal. Mild swelling at injection sites settles quickly. You can go back to your day with ease.
Profhilo is primarily a hydrator. It spreads across the face like a web to improve glow. Sunekos, by contrast, supports collagen and elastic fibres more directly, making it stronger for crepe texture and under-eye concerns.
Polynucleotides are another form of regenerative injectable, often used in very thin or damaged skin. Sunekos can be used alongside them in a programme, depending on your goals. Both sit within regenerative aesthetics, but the mechanisms differ.
Fillers replace or enhance volume. Sunekos does not. This is why it is ideal if you want a softer, more natural improvement rather than a change in shape.
Every regenerative injectable at The Stockbridge Clinic is delivered by experienced medical professionals.
We focus on long-term improvement, not short-term trends. Sunekos is one part of a wider strategy that may also include medical skin assessments, Laser Genesis, or hormonal support through our medical weight management and wellness programmes.
Your clinician will integrate Sunekos into a structured plan to support collagen, improve texture and maintain your skin health throughout the year.
If you want stronger, brighter and more resilient skin as you age, Sunekos offers a subtle yet effective way to restore what time has taken. You can take the first step with a consultation at The Stockbridge Clinic in Edinburgh, where your treatment plan is designed with clarity, precision and your long-term skin health in mind.
Yes. It is one of the most effective injectables for this concern because it supports elastic fibres.
It can improve mild hollowness and dark circles by strengthening the under-eye tissue.
Most complete a course of three to four sessions.
They do different jobs. Sunekos improves skin quality. Fillers restore volume.
Late thirties to mid-seventies see strong results.
