Sunekos Eye Treatment, West Malling, Kent and London
The delicate skin under the eyes is often one of the first areas to show signs of ageing. Dark circles, fine lines, hollowness and crepiness can make you look tired even when you feel well rested. Because this part of the face is so thin and fragile, it can also be one of the trickiest areas to treat effectively. That is where Sunekos comes in. This innovative injectable treatment has gained attention for its ability to regenerate and restore skin quality, particularly in challenging areas like the under eyes. But how does it work, and what benefits can you expect?
What is Sunekos?
Sunekos is a regenerative injectable treatment that combines hyaluronic acid with a specific mix of amino acids. Hyaluronic acid is well known for its hydrating properties, but what makes Sunekos different is the way it stimulates fibroblasts in the skin to produce new collagen and elastin. These are the proteins responsible for skin’s firmness, elasticity and overall resilience. By encouraging your skin to rebuild itself, Sunekos offers results that go beyond surface-level hydration and tackle the underlying causes of ageing.
Why is the under-eye area so difficult to treat?
The skin beneath the eyes is thinner than almost anywhere else on the body, with fewer oil glands and less support from fat and muscle. As collagen production slows with age, this area is prone to volume loss, fine lines and a crepey texture. Traditional dermal fillers can sometimes be used to improve hollowness, but they are not always the best option for everyone, especially if you’re prone to puffiness in this area. Sunekos, on the other hand, focuses on skin regeneration rather than simply adding volume, making it particularly well-suited to this delicate area.
The benefits of Sunekos under the eyes
One of the key benefits of Sunekos is its ability to improve crepey, thin skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production. Patients often notice the skin becoming firmer and smoother over time, with fine lines appearing less pronounced. Because the treatment also enhances hydration from within, the under-eye area can look brighter and more refreshed, helping to reduce the appearance of tiredness.
Another advantage is that Sunekos can soften the look of dark circles, particularly when these are caused by thinning skin that allows blood vessels underneath to become more visible. While it will not correct pigmentation-related dark circles, it can significantly improve overall skin quality and brightness in the area.
How many treatments are needed?
For the best results, Sunekos is usually performed as a course of sessions spaced around one to two weeks apart. Most patients need between three and four treatments initially. Results build gradually as new collagen and elastin are produced, with improvements continuing to develop in the months after treatment. Maintenance sessions can then be carried out as needed to keep the results looking fresh.
Is Sunekos safe under the eyes?
When performed by an experienced practitioner, Sunekos is considered a safe treatment for the under-eye area. As with any injectable, some temporary swelling, redness or bruising may occur, but these side effects typically resolve within a few days.
The under-eye area is one of the most common concerns patients raise in clinic, and it is also one of the most difficult to treat effectively. Sunekos provides a safe, regenerative approach that strengthens, hydrates and rejuvenates the skin from within, delivering natural results that improve over time. Whether you are struggling with crepiness, fine lines, or tired-looking eyes, Sunekos could offer a subtle yet powerful solution.
