Facial injection of amino acids

Amino Acid Injections for the Face

These injectable treatments are distinguished by a patented formula combining amino acids and hyaluronic acid. Amino acids stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, while hyaluronic acid, a key component of connective tissue, ensures optimal skin hydration and oxygenation, helping the skin appear radiant and healthy. Over time, hyaluronic acid is naturally broken down in the body, and as its levels decline, the skin loses elasticity and wrinkles begin to form.

This injectable treatment deeply hydrates the skin while reducing uneven skin texture and wrinkles. The amino acids contained in the formulation help restore the extracellular matrix and deeper layers of the skin.

During the Procedure

During the procedure, a small amount of the product is injected into the skin. In addition to hydrating the skin, it stimulates the production of elastin, collagen, and the body's own hyaluronic acid. As a result, wrinkles are reduced, moisture, radiance, and elasticity are restored, and overall skin tone improves. The injections are performed using an ultra-fine needle, delivering the product into the middle layer of the skin. The procedure takes approximately 30–60 minutes and can be performed on the face, neck, décolleté, and hands. For optimal results, a course of 3–5 treatments once per year is recommended.

After the Procedure

• The skin may appear red and slightly swollen for several hours after the procedure.
• Papules may form at the injection sites and will disappear within a few days as the hyaluronic acid is reabsorbed.
• Do not wet the treated areas during the first 24 hours after the procedure.
• Avoid saunas and swimming pools for 3 days following the procedure.
• Avoid direct sun exposure for up to 4 weeks. When outdoors, use a sunscreen with SPF 50 or higher.

Sunekos Products. What Are They?

Sunekos is an innovative injectable skin treatment based on amino acids and hyaluronic acid, designed to restore the extracellular matrix. The treatment helps restore the skin’s moisture balance, stimulates the migration of fibroblasts (connective tissue cells) to the injection site, supplies them with the building blocks required for collagen and elastin synthesis, and significantly increases their activity.

This treatment is an excellent alternative for individuals seeking highly natural-looking results without the use of dermal fillers. Two types of Sunekos treatments are available, differing in the type of hyaluronic acid they contain. Sunekos 200 contains low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid, while Sunekos 1200 contains high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid. Both Sunekos 200 and Sunekos 1200 contain a patented combination of essential and non-essential amino acids (including glycine, proline, lysine, alanine, valine, and others), making Sunekos injections unique and capable of delivering more natural-looking results compared to conventional hyaluronic acid fillers.

Sunekos 200 is used to treat fine wrinkles and is particularly suitable for younger patients and for the skin of the face, neck, décolleté, and hands. Sunekos 1200, on the other hand, is intended for deeper wrinkles or pronounced skin laxity when a stronger lifting effect is required. Depending on the patient’s needs and the physiological characteristics of the skin, a combination of both Sunekos 200 and Sunekos 1200 is often used to achieve long-lasting results.

How Do Sunekos Injectable Products Differ from Other Fillers?

Adequate hydration gives the skin elasticity, vitality, and a youthful appearance. Most fillers used for facial biorevitalization contain only hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally synthesized by the body. Hyaluronic acid binds water and retains it within the extracellular environment, thereby maintaining hydration in the skin and other tissues.

Sunekos injectable products contain not only hyaluronic acid but also a patented combination of essential and non-essential amino acids that are crucial for the activity of fibroblasts, the cells responsible for maintaining the extracellular matrix. Essential amino acids such as glycine, L-proline, and L-lysine, which are not produced by the body and must be obtained through diet, play an important role not only in collagen synthesis but also in skin texture and wound healing. Amino acids such as L-alanine and L-valine are essential for elastin synthesis and are key components of fibrin and other proteins.

Thanks to their unique amino acid complex, Sunekos injectable products help maintain skin hydration, restore the extracellular matrix and deeper skin layers, and provide the essential building blocks required for collagen and elastin production. Following Sunekos treatments, the skin undergoes natural rejuvenation, with a noticeable reduction in wrinkles and fine lines. Due to their highly natural and relatively long-lasting results, Sunekos injectable products offer significant advantages over traditional dermal fillers.
