Sunekos® Performa & 1200 (Full Protocol)
Sunekos® is an advanced injectable skin regeneration treatment designed to stimulate collagen and elastin, improve skin quality and restore natural elasticity without adding volume.
At Enhance Clinispa, we use the full Sunekos® Performa and 1200 protocol. These two formulations are combined strategically to target delicate areas such as the under eyes while also improving skin density and structure across the mid and lower face.
This is not a filler. It is a regenerative treatment that supports your skin to function better over time.

What is Sunekos® Performa & 1200?
Sunekos® is a patented combination of amino acids and hyaluronic acid designed to stimulate fibroblasts. Fibroblasts are the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin, the structural proteins that maintain skin firmness and elasticity.
The Performa formulation is ideal for delicate areas such as the under eye where skin is thin and prone to creasing. Sunekos® 1200 has a higher molecular weight hyaluronic acid and is used to improve skin density and structure in areas that require more support.
At Enhance Clinispa, we combine both within a medically led protocol. At the first appointment, both Performa and 1200 are administered in targeted areas. Two weeks later, Performa is repeated to optimise regeneration and refine results.
This dual approach improves texture, crepiness, fine lines and skin laxity while maintaining a completely natural appearance.
What's our process?
Step 1
Before treatment at Enhance Clinispa, you will attend a consultation so our medical team can review your medical history, assess your skin quality and understand your concerns. We examine the treatment area carefully and explain exactly what Sunekos® can and cannot achieve.
We focus on realistic outcomes. This treatment improves skin quality. It does not create dramatic volume or instant tightening.
Only once suitability is confirmed will we proceed.
Step 2
On the day of treatment, please arrive without makeup. The skin will be cleansed thoroughly and numbing cream applied if required.
Sunekos® Performa and 1200 are injected using fine needles or cannula depending on the area treated. The first appointment includes both formulations placed strategically in targeted areas. Two weeks later, Performa is repeated to enhance the regenerative process.
You may experience mild swelling or small bumps immediately after injection. These typically settle within 24-48 hours.
The procedure takes approximately 30-45 minutes.
Step 3
After treatment, the area will be gently cleansed and you will receive clear aftercare instructions.
We advise avoiding strenuous exercise, heat exposure, alcohol and excessive touching of the area for 24 hours. Mild swelling or tenderness is normal and settles quickly.
Results develop gradually. Collagen and elastin production takes time. Most patients notice smoother texture, improved elasticity and brighter skin over the following weeks.
We recommend a re-cycle at 6 months to maintain results and continue collagen stimulation.

FAQs
How does Sunekos® differ from dermal filler?
Sunekos® is not a volumising filler. It does not add structure or lift in the way hyaluronic acid filler does. Instead, it works at a cellular level to stimulate fibroblast activity and restore extracellular matrix quality. The result is improved elasticity, smoother fine lines and healthier looking skin. For patients concerned about under-eye darkness caused by thinning skin rather than deep hollowing, Sunekos® is often a more appropriate and subtle solution.
What results can you expect?
Results are progressive and natural.
You can expect:
- Improved skin texture
- Reduction in fine lines
- Increased elasticity
- Reduced crepiness under the eyes
- Healthier, brighter appearance
Sunekos® will not:
- Replace lost facial volume
- Remove deep structural folds
- Provide instant tightening
This treatment supports long-term skin quality. It is best suited to patients who value subtle regeneration over dramatic change.
Why choose Enhance Clinispa for Sunekos®?
Enhance Clinispa is a consultation-led, medically driven clinic based in Bolton. Every treatment plan is tailored to your anatomy and skin condition. We do not follow trends. We select treatments based on evidence, safety and suitability. The Sunekos® Performa and 1200 protocol is offered as a structured regenerative approach, not as a quick fix. You will always receive honest advice, clear expectations and a treatment plan built around long-term skin health.
How many treatments will I need?
Our standard protocol includes one combined session of Sunekos® Performa and 1200, followed by a repeat Performa session two weeks later. A maintenance re-cycle is recommended at 6 months.
Is Sunekos® painful?
Most patients describe mild discomfort. Numbing cream can be used if needed. Any swelling or small bumps usually settle within 24-48 hours.
When will I see results?
Some improvement in hydration may be visible within days. Collagen stimulation takes time, so optimal results develop gradually over 4-8 weeks.
Is there downtime?
Downtime is minimal. You may have small injection marks or mild swelling for 1-2 days.
Can Sunekos® be combined with other treatments?
Yes. It can complement treatments such as anti-wrinkle injections, microneedling or laser therapies. We will advise on appropriate timing during your consultation.
