Over time, our skin naturally loses collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, leading to fine lines, laxity, and a dehydrated appearance. This is particularly common in cities like Dubai, where there is year-round sun exposure and dry air.
While there are several products and services available to mask these changes externally, many patients today seek treatments that work at a deeper level to support skin structure and restore resilience.
One such treatment is Sunekos– a patented formula of hyaluronic acid with amino acids. This injectable treatment focuses on bio‑regeneration, offering subtle, natural‑looking improvements with minimal downtime.
At Hortman Clinics, the award-winning aesthetic clinic for beauty treatments in Dubai, this innovative treatment is delivered by trained, experienced specialists who help restore your skin to its natural radiance.
What is Sunekos Injection?
Sunekos is an injectable skin treatment that combines a specific form of hyaluronic acid with a patented blend of amino acids formulated to stimulate the skin’s natural regeneration processes.
Due to its powerful components, Sunekos targets collagen and elastin production, the two key proteins responsible for firmness, elasticity, and smooth texture.
- Unlike traditional dermal fillers that add or restore volume in specific areas, Sunekos is formulated to improve overall skin volume, structure, hydration and quality.
- While dermal fillers help reshape features, Sunekos injections work as a bio‑revitaliser to enhance skin health and appearance from within.
So, if you are looking for subtle refinement to your skin while restoring its natural glow, Sunekos may be the right treatment for you.
How does Sunekos work?
Sunekos injection is based on the skin’s natural regeneration process, which stimulates collagen and elastin production. This is possible due to a patented formula that combines hyaluronic acid with amino acids.
Here’s how the components work:
Hyaluronic acid:
- It hydrates the skin
- Provides volume
Unique amino acid formula (containing glycine, proline, and lysine):
- Encourages fibroblast activity to generate collagen and elastin
- Stimulates the production of essential proteins that support skin structure and elasticity, helping maintain skin health and repair damage.

What skin concerns can Sunekos address?
Sunekos is versatile and can be used for several skin concerns:
- Early signs of ageing, especially where texture, elasticity and hydration are major concerns
- Fine lines and early wrinkles, especially in delicate areas or those that are starting to crease.
- Skin laxity and dryness on the neck, under-eye area, hands, and décolletage, where traditional fillers may look obvious or heavy.
- To improve dull, dehydrated or ‘tired-looking’ skin.
- Sun‑damaged or environmentally-stressed skin
- Mild acne scars and uneven texture
- Thin under‑eye skin and dark circles
Treatment protocol & what to expect
Most people require multiple Sunekos sessions, spaced 1 to 2 weeks apart. The number of Sunekos sessions you will require will depend on your skin condition, product variant used and your desired goal.
Each session of Sunekos treatment takes around 20–45 minutes, including preparation, injections, and post‑treatment care.
The downtime following Sunekos treatment is minimal, and most patients can fit the therapy into the middle of their hectic schedules.
Some people notice early benefits, such as improved hydration and gentle plumping, right after the first session, and see improvements in texture, fine lines, and elasticity in the weeks that follow as collagen and elastin production increase.
While the treatment is safe, one may experience mild redness, slight swelling, or minor bruises at injection points. However, these side effects usually settle within a short period
After treatment completion, you can see visible results in around 6 to 9 months.
Areas of the body to treat with Sunekos
Sunekos can be used in different regions of the body and face where skin quality is a concern rather than structural volume. It is commonly used in:
- Facial areas such as the cheeks, forehead, and particularly the under‑eye region, where the skin is thin and prone to fine lines and crepiness.
- The neck and décolletage, as they often show early signs of laxity and sun damage despite regular facial care.
In some cases, the Sunekos treatment can be extended to the hands, arms, and other areas with crepey or ageing skin.
Is Sunekos suitable for all skin types?
In addition to being versatile, Sunekos is suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin, when administered by trained, licensed medical professionals.
- It is particularly recommended for adults with early or moderate loss of elasticity, fine lines, or dry skin.
- Since Sunekos focuses on skin quality rather than facial reshaping, it is a great solution for people who want to look refreshed and well‑rested
How to maintain results after Sunekos Treatment?
Sunekos injection promotes internal regeneration and repair, but maintaining the benefits after treatment requires a thorough approach to skin health.
Depending on your skin's requirements and lifestyle choices, dermatologists at Hortman Clinics typically advise a maintenance session every six to nine months after treatment sessions are finished.
Here are some actions you can take to enhance and prolong the results of your treatment!
- Use barrier-repairing ingredients like ceramides and peptides in your regular skincare regimen as directed by your physician.
- Every day, especially when you're going outside, wear broad-spectrum sunscreen. This is crucial because exposure to UV light speeds up the breakdown of collagen and reduces the effectiveness of treatment.
- To promote collagen synthesis, stay hydrated and eat a balanced diet high in antioxidants.
- Steer clear of smoking and excessive alcohol consumption as they both impede the skin's ability to receive oxygen and postpone healing.
- Find out whether complementary therapies, such as laser facials or mild chemical peels, can help preserve texture and glow between appointments.
Sunekos can help your skin look firm, radiant, and youthful all year long when combined with the proper lifestyle and post-treatment care.
Cost of Sunekos in Dubai

- Number of sessions required

- Multiple regions treated during the same course
- Number of vials per season
- Maintenance sessions (if required)

How is Sunekos Injection treatment different from other skin boosters?
It is natural to wonder how Suneko's treatment differs from conventional skin boosters. Let’s simplify it for you!
- The primary purpose of traditional skin boosters or mesotherapy is to hydrate or temporarily plump the skin using a mixture of ingredients. Sunekos, on the other hand, restores the extracellular matrix (ECM), the structure that keeps skin supple and intact, at the cellular level. It promotes the skin's natural ability to rebuild and repair itself by directly targeting fibroblast activity.
- Another significant distinction is that Sunekos contains a unique combination of amino acids and low- and medium-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid. This special combination actively promotes the production of collagen and elastin while also drawing in moisture. Hydrating injections do not allow for this.
- Sunekos gives noticeable, long-term improvements in skin tone, texture, and firmness in addition to short-term radiance. Conventional skin boosters do not exhibit this.
Sunekos is therefore an excellent compromise for those who want more than hydration but less than volumising fillers. It produces a naturally refreshed appearance with slow but noticeable results.
Why do some people prefer Sunekos over fillers or Botox
Sunekos is a new-age, advanced treatment that offers several benefits, making it a preferred choice over fillers and Botox.
- Provides natural-looking rejuvenation
- Improves skin quality, elasticity and hydration instead of adding volume
- Excellent for delicate areas, such as under the eyes, where volumising fillers look natural
- Requires minimal downtime
- Gives visible results in a few sessions, but results also build gradually
- Gives a subtle, refreshed appearance rather than a drastic, unnatural look
Considerations & things to know before treatment
If you are considering undergoing Sunekos injection in Dubai, here’s a quick checklist to ensure successful and safe treatment:
- Sunekos is a specialised treatment and must be performed only by a qualified and board-certified dermatologist or aesthetic practitioner.
- Mild side effects are possible and totally normal. These typically include temporary redness, swelling and mild bruising.
- The results of Sunekos injection and their longevity depend on skin type, lifestyle and aftercare.
- If you have had treatments such as fillers or other injectables before, remember to inform your doctor.
