If you are looking for a non-surgical way to refresh and revitalise your skin, injectable skin boosters offer a safe, effective solution. Among the most popular options are Sunekos 200 and Profhilo, both of which aim to restore hydration, smooth fine lines, and improve elasticity without adding volume or altering facial expression.
We specialise in advanced skin rejuvenation and help clients choose the right treatment for their needs. In this comprehensive guide, we will explain exactly what Sunekos 200 is, how it works, who it’s suitable for, and how it compares to Profhilo.
What Is Sunekos 200?
Sunekos 200 is a unique injectable treatment designed to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins that give your skin structure, firmness, and bounce. Unlike dermal fillers that add volume, Sunekos works at a cellular level to restore your skin’s natural health and glow.
It contains a patented mix of:
Hyaluronic acid (HA) – deeply hydrates the skin
Amino acids – six key building blocks (e.g. glycine, proline, leucine) that rebuild the extracellular matrix
Together, these components stimulate fibroblast activity in the skin, which leads to gradual but natural improvements in texture, elasticity, tone and radiance.

How Does Sunekos 200 Work?
Sunekos 200 is injected into the dermal layer of the skin using a fine needle. The hyaluronic acid acts as a moisture magnet, while the amino acids encourage the body to naturally rebuild collagen and elastin.
The treatment:
Hydrates from within
Improves fine lines and skin texture
Stimulates long-term collagen regeneration
Reduces early signs of ageing
Restores natural radiance
For optimal results, we typically recommend a course of four treatments, spaced 7 to 10 days apart. The full benefits build gradually over several weeks.
Who Is Sunekos 200 Suitable For?
Sunekos 200 is ideal for individuals who:
Have early signs of ageing, such as dullness, fine lines or loss of firmness
Want to improve skin quality without changing their facial structure
Are concerned about under-eye wrinkles or dark circles
Have skin laxity around the face, neck or décolletage
Are not ready for dermal fillers or prefer a more subtle approach
It’s also highly effective as a preventative treatment for younger clients and a regenerative option for more mature skin.

What Areas Can Sunekos Treat?
Sunekos 200 is incredibly versatile and can be used on several areas, including:
Face
Under-eye area (fine lines and hollowness)
Neck
Décolletage
Hands
Arms
It’s especially popular for treating under-eye crepiness, where fillers may be unsuitable.
What Results Can You Expect?
Results vary depending on your skin’s condition and response, but most patients notice:
Increased plumpness and hydration after the second session
Visible improvements in texture and tone after the full course
Long-term collagen production leading to firmer, smoother skin
These effects can last for several months, and many clients choose to combine Sunekos with other skin boosters to extend and enhance the results.
Is There Any Downtime?
Sunekos is a minimally invasive procedure with little to no downtime. Common, short-term side effects include:
Mild redness or swelling at the injection site
Tenderness or minor bruising
Small bumps that settle within 24–48 hours
Most people can resume daily activities the same day.
Sunekos vs Profhilo: What’s the Difference?
Although both Sunekos and Profhilo aim to improve skin quality, they use different approaches and ingredients:
Feature | Sunekos 200 | Profhilo |
Ingredients | Hyaluronic acid + amino acids | High-concentration pure hyaluronic acid |
Main Action | Stimulates collagen & elastin production | Bio-remodelling through hydration |
Number of Sessions | 4 sessions (1–2 weeks apart) | 2 sessions (4 weeks apart) |
Target Areas | Eyes, face, neck, hands, décolletage | Face and neck primarily |
Best For | Fine lines, under-eye area, dull skin | Laxity, crepey skin, dehydration |
Benefits of Sunekos
Improves fine lines and skin texture
Excellent for under-eye rejuvenation
Gradual, natural-looking results
Stimulates both collagen and elastin
Benefits of Profhilo
Contains pure HA for intensive hydration
Firms and lifts crepey or sagging skin
Only two sessions required
Suitable for more advanced signs of ageing
While Sunekos is better suited to rebuilding and repairing skin structure, Profhilo is more focused on deep hydration and tissue remodelling. Some patients benefit from a combination of both.

Which Skin Booster Is Right for You?
Choose Sunekos if:
You’re looking for subtle skin improvement, especially around the eyes, and want to improve collagen production without volume.
Choose Profhilo if:
You want rapid hydration and skin tightening in areas of laxity, like the cheeks, jowls or neck.
We often customise skin booster plans using one or both treatments, sometimes alongside other skin booster therapies, to target multiple layers of the skin for maximum effect.
