Want to improve your skin? Sunekos is changing the game

When it comes to rejuvenating skin, we’re increasingly looking beyond surface-level fixes. The new frontier? Bio-regeneration — and Sunekos is leading the way. A first-of-its-kind injectable treatment, Sunekos is transforming how we support skin health, working beneath the surface to restore the skin’s natural vitality through science-backed stimulation of collagen and elastin production.^1,2

Unlike traditional fillers that simply add volume, Sunekos works on a cellular level to improve the skin’s overall quality. It doesn’t fill or freeze — instead, it regenerates. Using a patented formula which blends hyaluronic acid with a precise mix of amino acids, Sunekos targets the extracellular matrix (ECM) — the foundation of our skin’s structure — to spark true regeneration.^1,3 The result? Smoother, firmer, more luminous skin that looks healthier, not altered.

Whether you’re looking to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, revive tired under-eyes, or improve skin brightness and texture, Sunekos delivers natural-looking results that evolve over time. You’ll start to see visible improvements within 7–10 days, with optimal results typically seen after a course of three treatments, spaced two weeks apart.

At the heart of this treatment is balance. Too few or too many amino acids won’t trigger the desired effect. The Sunekos formula — developed through years of scientific research — is the only patented combination clinically shown to stimulate the skin’s natural fibroblasts into producing new collagen and elastin in physiological harmony.^1,4 It’s this precise formulation that sets Sunekos apart — and positions it as a breakthrough in regenerative aesthetics.

Sunekos is suitable for delicate areas like the under-eyes, neck, and hands, where the skin is thinner and more prone to ageing. It’s especially effective for addressing crepey texture, dehydration, and early signs of skin laxity.^4,5 And thanks to its non-invasive nature, the treatment requires minimal downtime — a quick 20–30 minute session and you’re back to your day.

More than just a ‘tweakment’, Sunekos is a true investment in your skin’s long-term resilience. Backed by clinical studies and loved by those in the know, it’s rapidly becoming one of New Zealand’s most in-demand aesthetic treatments — not for what it adds, but for how it helps your skin restore itself.⁵
