Before & Aftercare: Sunekos
Let’s get gorgeous: your Sunekos Information
Sunekos is an award-winning injectable treatment that uses a patented combination of Hyaluronic Acid and Amino Acids to stimulate collagen and elastin production. Unlike traditional fillers, which are used to restore volume, Sunekos works by boosting your skin’s own regeneration process, making your skin look plumper, brighter, and more youthful.
At your consultation
Your Nurse will take your medical history and discuss your treatment in full. Take time afterwards to consider this before you book your treatment. If you’re happy, we can book it during your consult.
Before your Sunekos treatment
- The week before, avoid aspirin, NSAIDS, anticoagulant drugs, ginkgo biloba, garlic, flax oil, cod liver oil, vitamins A&E, and other essential fatty acids
- On the day of treatment, leave your face completely bare: no makeup, skincare or self-tan
- Don’t wax, bleach, use depilatory creams or have electrolysis for 4 weeks beforehand in the areas to be treated
- Avoid chemical peels, ‘active’ facials, laser and microdermabrasion for 2 weeks
Both before and after, please protect your incredible skin with broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen at least 30 SPF.
Saving face: your Sunekos Aftercare
- avoid anything that will make you red/hot/sweaty - including but not limited to sauna, spa, intense exercise for the first 24hrs
- avoid drinking alcohol directly before and after procedure
- avoid facials and physical pressure for 3 days post treatment
- results can start 24hrs post treatment but full results will be achieved after the completion consecutive of 3 treatments
- downtime is minimal. Swelling +/- lumps at the injection site is the most common side effect and can show immediately, lumps and residual swelling will go down after 4-48hrs
- common side effects: bruising, bleeding during treatment, swelling (esp. under-eye), numbness, redness, pain +/- tenderness, itching
- it is recommended to wait 4wks after the final treatment of Sunekos before having dermal filler
For optimal results, we recommend a series of three treatments spaced 2 weeks apart. You’ll notice visible improvements after your first session, with progressive results as your skin continues to regenerate over time. Post-treatment, you can expect minimal downtime, allowing you to quickly get back to your daily routine.
