SuneKOS is a clinically proven injectable skin booster that combines hyaluronic acid with a patented blend of six amino acids to restore hydration, stimulate collagen and elastin production, and improve overall skin health. It is available at Elements Medical, a medically led aesthetic clinic in Doncaster, South Yorkshire.
If your skin has started to feel dry, tired or less resilient than it used to, you are not alone. Many of our patients come to us feeling self-conscious about changes in their skin that affect how they feel about themselves day to day. SuneKOS works at a cellular level to regenerate and repair skin quality from within, delivering subtle, natural-looking results without adding volume or altering your facial shape.
At Elements Medical, every SuneKOS treatment begins with a thorough consultation in which we assess your skin health, discuss your concerns, and review your medical history. This is not a one-size-fits-all approach. We take the time to understand what is troubling you, whether that is a physical skin condition, the emotional impact of visible skin changes, or both, and we build a treatment plan around your individual needs.
Our clinic is located on Thorne Road in Doncaster with on-site parking. We welcome patients from across South Yorkshire and beyond, including York, Leeds and Wakefield.
SuneKOS is an injectable skin booster made from low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid and a patented complex of six amino acids (glycine, L-proline, L-leucine, L-lysine, L-alanine and L-valine ). It was developed specifically to stimulate fibroblast activity in the dermis, encouraging the natural production of both collagen and elastin.
It is classified as a skin booster rather than a dermal filler. This is an important distinction. Dermal fillers add volume to reshape or plump specific areas of the face. SuneKOS does not change your facial structure or add any volume. Instead, it focuses entirely on improving the overall health and quality of your skin.
The result is skin that looks and feels healthier, more hydrated, and more resilient. Many of our patients describe the effect as looking like themselves again, only fresher and more rested.
SuneKOS is manufactured by Professional Derma SA and is CE marked as a Class III medical device. It is widely used across the UK and internationally for skin regeneration.
The patented formula behind SuneKOS is designed to support and restore the skin’s extracellular matrix (ECM). This is the internal support network made up of collagen, elastin and moisture-binding substances that keeps your skin firm, supple and well hydrated.
As we age, this support structure naturally weakens. Collagen and elastin production slow, and the skin begins to lose its ability to retain moisture. This can lead to visible changes, such as fine lines, a crepey texture, dullness, and a loss of firmness. For many people, these changes go beyond the cosmetic. They can affect confidence, social comfort and overall psychological well-being.
SuneKOS addresses this by delivering the precise building blocks that fibroblasts need to produce new collagen and elastin. The hyaluronic acid component draws and holds moisture, while the amino acids fuel the regeneration process. Rather than masking the problem on the surface, SuneKOS works at a cellular level to restore the skin’s own ability to repair and maintain itself.
Clinical research evaluating the combination of hyaluronic acid and amino acids has demonstrated measurable improvements in skin quality, including reductions in fine lines and improvements in hydration and elasticity following a course of treatment. You can find more information about the product and its clinical evidence on the official SuneKOS website.
At Elements Medical, every treatment we offer is delivered with a clear clinical purpose. SuneKOS is not simply about looking different. It serves three distinct therapeutic purposes that guide how we assess, plan and deliver your care.
For patients whose skin has already begun to show signs of decline, whether through ageing, sun damage, environmental stress or hormonal changes, SuneKOS helps to restore what has been lost. By stimulating collagen and elastin production and replenishing deep hydration, the treatment helps bring the skin back towards a healthier, more functional state. This is particularly important for patients experiencing crepey skin, persistent dryness or thinning in delicate areas such as under the eyes, the neck and the decolletage.
Prevention is always better than a cure. For patients whose skin is in reasonable condition but beginning to show early signs of change, SuneKOS helps to maintain the skin’s structural integrity and hydration levels before more significant deterioration occurs. Regular maintenance treatments can support ongoing collagen production and help the skin remain resilient, healthy and well-nourished over time.
We understand that the way your skin looks and feels can have a real impact on how you feel about yourself. Many of our patients tell us that visible skin changes have affected their confidence, willingness to socialise, or comfort in professional settings. These are not trivial concerns. The emotional and psychological impact of skin health is well-documented, and we take it seriously in every consultation. SuneKOS can play a meaningful role in restoring not just the physical health of the skin but also the confidence and emotional well-being that comes with feeling comfortable in your own skin.
SuneKOS offers a range of clinically supported benefits that address both the physical and emotional aspects of skin health.
1. Stimulates collagen and elastin production – the two essential proteins responsible for skin firmness, bounce and resilience. By encouraging your skin to produce more of these naturally, SuneKOS supports lasting structural improvement rather than a temporary fix.
2. Deeply hydrates from within – the hyaluronic acid component binds moisture at a cellular level, restoring the plump, dewy quality that dehydrated or tired skin often lacks. This goes far deeper than any topical moisturiser can reach.
3. Improves fine lines and crepey texture by – rebuilding the underlying support structure of the skin. SuneKOS smooths and softens the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and that papery, crepey texture that many patients find distressing.
4. Restores radiance and a healthy glow – dull, lacklustre skin is often a sign that the extracellular matrix is compromised. As SuneKOS regenerates this framework, patients frequently notice a visible return of brightness and vitality.
5. Supports emotional confidence and wellbeing – feeling unhappy with your skin can weigh heavily on your self-esteem. By restoring skin health and quality, many patients report feeling more comfortable, more confident and more like themselves again.
SuneKOS is well-suited to patients who want to improve the health and quality of their skin without adding volume or altering their facial shape. It is especially effective for people who have noticed that their skin no longer looks or feels the way it used to and who are looking for a treatment that works with their body rather than against it.
You may be a good candidate for SuneKOS if you are experiencing any of the following:
SuneKOS is also an excellent preventative option. If your skin is currently in good condition but you want to protect and maintain its health for the long term, regular treatments can help support collagen production and keep your skin in the best possible shape.
During your consultation at our Doncaster clinic, we will assess your skin condition, review your medical history and discuss your goals to determine whether SuneKOS is the most appropriate treatment for you.
SuneKOS is versatile enough to treat many areas of the face and body, including several delicate zones where traditional fillers may not be suitable.
SuneKOS is particularly effective around the eyes, where the skin is thin and prone to early signs of ageing. It can help with dark circles, fine lines, crow’s feet, forehead lines, hollowing around the temples and the lines that develop around the nose and mouth. For more details on the eye-specific treatment, see our dedicated SuneKOS Eye
The neck and chest are areas where skin often shows visible signs of ageing, sun damage and loss of elasticity earlier than the face. SuneKOS helps to restore hydration and firmness to thin, crepey skin in these commonly neglected areas.
The backs of the hands are among the first places to show signs of ageing, with skin becoming thinner, drier and less elastic over time. SuneKOS can also be used on the inner arms and thighs, where loss of firmness and skin quality is a concern. SuneKOS works by deeply hydrating the skin and stimulating collagen and elastin production, helping restore a smoother, firmer, and more radiant appearance.
The treatment itself is straightforward and takes around 20 to 45 minutes, depending on the areas being treated.
After your consultation, we cleanse the treatment area and apply a topical numbing cream to keep you comfortable. SuneKOS is then delivered through a series of precise micro-injections into the skin. Most patients describe the sensation as mild and very manageable.
There is minimal downtime. You can return to your normal daily activities straight after your appointment. Some patients experience mild redness, small bumps or slight swelling at the injection sites, but these typically settle within 48 to 72 hours. Bruising is possible but uncommon.
We always provide clear aftercare guidance to help you get the best possible results from your treatment.
Many patients begin to notice improvements in skin hydration and radiance within the first 7 to 10 days. The full benefits of SuneKOS develop gradually over the following weeks as your skin produces new collagen and elastin.
This progressive improvement is one of the things patients appreciate most about SuneKOS. Rather than a sudden change, the results build naturally, so the people around you simply notice that you look well and refreshed.
Most patients benefit from a course of treatments spaced several weeks apart for optimal results. The exact number depends on your starting point and your treatment goals, which we discuss during your consultation.
Results typically last several months. Many of our patients choose to return for maintenance treatments once or twice a year to maintain their skin quality and support collagen production over time.
This is one of the most common questions we hear. Both SuneKOS and Profhilo are injectable skin boosters, but they work in different ways and are suited to different concerns.
SuneKOS combines hyaluronic acid with six amino acids. This dual-action formula stimulates both collagen and elastin production, making it particularly effective for improving skin elasticity and treating delicate areas such as under the eyes. It is especially well-suited to patients whose primary concern is skin quality, texture and resilience.
Profhilo contains a high concentration of hyaluronic acid without amino acids. It focuses primarily on deep hydration and overall skin remodelling. It is often chosen for patients whose main concern is generalised skin laxity and dehydration across larger areas of the face and neck.
Neither treatment is objectively better than the other. The right choice depends on your skin condition and your goals. During your consultation at Elements Medical, we assess your skin and recommend the option most likely to achieve the outcome you are looking for. In some cases, both treatments can be used as part of a broader plan. For more information, visit our Profhilo page.
Dermal fillers and SuneKOS serve entirely different purposes, and understanding the distinction helps you make a more informed choice.
Dermal fillers are designed to add volume, contour and structure. They can plump the lips, define the jawline, restore volume to the cheeks or smooth deep folds. The results are immediate and visible.
SuneKOS does not add volume or change your facial shape in any way. It works beneath the surface to improve the health, hydration and quality of your skin over time. The results are gradual and subtle, and they preserve your natural appearance.
Many of our patients benefit from both treatments. For example, you might choose dermal fillers to restore lost cheek volume while using SuneKOS to improve the overall quality and texture of your skin. We can advise on the best combination during your consultation.
Choosing where to have an injectable treatment is an important decision, and we believe it should always be made with confidence.
At Elements Medical, your safety and well-being are at the centre of everything we do. Every SuneKOS treatment is delivered within a clinically governed framework by experienced practitioners who understand both the science behind the product and the real-world concerns that bring patients to us.
We do not rush consultations. We listen to what is troubling you, we assess your skin thoroughly, and we are honest about what SuneKOS can and cannot achieve. If we believe a different treatment would be more appropriate for your needs, we will tell you.
Our patients choose us because we offer a genuine, medically led approach in a professional clinical setting. We combine clinical expertise with warmth and understanding because we know that coming for treatment can feel like a big step, and we want you to feel supported throughout.
We are proud to be one of Doncaster’s most trusted aesthetic clinics, with consistently excellent patient feedback and a strong reputation built on honest, evidence-based care.

Suitability is determined during consultation, where we assess your skin health, medical history, and treatment goals to ensure this is the most appropriate option for you.
They are an injectable treatment made from hyaluronic acid and amino acids. Together, these ingredients stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, helping to restore skin’s natural elasticity, hydration, and youthful glow.
While dermal fillers add volume or reshape specific areas, SuneKOS focuses on skin quality. It doesn’t change your facial structure, instead, it improves texture, firmness, and hydration by encouraging your skin to regenerate from within.
They are both excellent treatments that work in slightly different ways. SuneKOS combines hyaluronic acid with amino acids to stimulate both collagen and elastin, making it particularly effective for delicate areas like under the eyes. Prothilo focuses primarily on deep hydration and overall skin remodelling. We assess your skin during consultation to recommend the best option for you.
Most patients achieve the best results with a course of 3 to 4 treatments spaced several weeks apart. The exact number depends on your skin condition and goals, which we discuss during your initial consultation.
Results typically last several months. Many of our patients choose to return for maintenance treatments once or twice a year to maintain skin quality and support collagen production over time.
Yes. SuneKOS is a CE-marked, clinically developed treatment that is widely used across the UK and internationally for skin regeneration. At Elements Medical, every treatment is preceded by a comprehensive medical consultation to ensure it is safe and appropriate for you.
No. SuneKOS is not a filler and does not add volume. It works beneath the surface to improve the health and quality of your skin, resulting in a refreshed and more radiant appearance that still looks entirely like you.
There is no single best age. SuneKOS can benefit adults at various stages. Younger patients may use it as a preventive measure to maintain skin health and support collagen levels, while patients with more established changes can use it to restore hydration, firmness, and elasticity.
Yes. SuneKOS works well alongside a range of other treatments, including polynucleotides, Profhilo and anti-wrinkle injections. During your consultation, we advise whether combining treatments may help you achieve a better overall outcome.
Many patients notice improvements in hydration and skin radiance within the first few weeks, with continued enhancement as collagen production develops.
Most patients find the treatment very manageable. We apply a topical numbing cream before the procedure to minimise any discomfort. The injections themselves are delivered with a fine needle and the whole process typically takes between 20 and 45 minutes.
Downtime is minimal. Most patients return to their daily routine immediately after treatment. You may notice some mild redness or small bumps at the injection sites, but these usually settle within a day or two.
No. As a precaution, it is not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. We will discuss alternative options with you if this applies.
