Sunekos in London

Sunekos is an injectable skin booster made by Professional Dietetics. It combines hyaluronic acid, which holds water in the skin, with six amino acids: glycine, proline, leucine, lysine, valine and alanine. The skin uses amino acids like these to build collagen and elastin.

Sunekos is often used around the eyes, for fine lines and thin, crepey skin. Research is still limited, so Dr Raman will check at your consultation whether it suits you. Polynucleotides are another option for the under-eye area.

Both are skin boosters with hyaluronic acid, and neither adds volume. Sunekos adds a blend of amino acids. Profhilo uses a very high concentration of hyaluronic acid that spreads evenly through the skin. Dr Raman will advise which suits your skin.

A Sunekos course of three sessions for the face costs £1,000, and a maintenance session costs £350. Every treatment starts with a free, no-obligation consultation with Dr Raman.

As with any injection, you may have temporary redness, swelling, small bumps or bruising where the needle went in. These usually settle within a few days. As a practising NHS GP, Dr Raman checks your medical history before any treatment.
