What is Sunekos treatment?
Sunekos facial rejuvenation treatment is a non-surgical and non-invasive cosmetic procedure that is designed to rejuvenate and revitalise the skin on the face. It involves the use of a specialised injectable solution containing a combination of hyaluronic acid and amino acids, which are naturally occurring substances found in the body. The solution is injected into the skin using a fine needle, and is designed to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins that are responsible for maintaining the elasticity and firmness of the skin.

The treatment is great for reducing fine lines and wrinkles, along with improving the overall texture and tone of the skin. It is typically performed in a series of sessions, and the results are long-lasting.

However, the length of time that the treatment lasts can vary depending on a number of factors, including the individual’s skin type, the severity of their skin concerns, and their overall health and lifestyle habits. It is important to keep in mind that Sunekos treatment is not a permanent solution, and touch-up treatments may be necessary to maintain the desired results. It is recommended to discuss the expected duration of the treatment’s effects and the need for touch-up treatments with a qualified healthcare provider during a consultation.
Can I combine my Sunekos treatment with another treatment? It is generally safe to combine Sunekos facial rejuvenation treatment with other non-invasive or minimally invasive treatments. Dr Siobhan will give you advice when it comes to combining Sunekos with any other treatment to ensure that the combination is safe and appropriate for your specific needs and goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Treatment Suitable For Me? Please read the list below carefully, if any of the below apply to you, you will not be suitable for treatment. If none of the below apply to you, you can proceed to booking a consultation where Dr Siobhan will conduct a thorough medical history to check your suitability.

Will I Bruise? Bruising is one of the potential side effects of treatments such as Botox® and varies from patient to patient. Often patients suffer from very little bruising after injections. If you’re concerned about bruising, we advise you to avoid taking medications such as Aspirin, Naproxen and Ibuprofen in the week of your treatment as these all increase the chances of bruising. Avoiding alcohol and excessive exercise before or after treatment is also advisable.
Is It Safe To Have Treatment ? Yes, absolutely. We have many protocols in place to ensure that you are completely safe when having treatment.
Does Treatment Hurt And What If I Am Scared Of Needles? Treatment, especially the provision of Botox® is generally a painless treatment because we use very fine needles and Dr Siobhan is highly trained and skilled. Generally, the treatment is carried out without anaesthetic, although as a dentist, Dr Siobhan can provide topical or local anaesthetic if required. However, should you have any concerns before, or during your treatment, please raise this with Dr Siobhan.
How Long Does Treatment Take To Work and How Long Does Last? With anti-wrinkle injections (Botox®), results can display from 3-4 days after the treatment but it can take up to 2 weeks to see the full effects. Everyone is different so longevity of treatment varies from patient to patient and treatment to treatment. Generally treatment using Botox® lasts anywhere between 3-6 months.
What If I Don’t Like The Results? At The Terrace Aesthetics, we aim to provide you with the results that you want. The treatments we use, such as Botox® are not a permanent treatment and will therefore break down and wear off after a few months. We may also be able to dissolve some treatments if it is appropriate to do so.
How Long Does an Appointment Last? The appointment can last anything between 30-45 minutes. The actual injecting only takes up a small amount of this time. The length of the appointment depends on the number of areas that you have treated, as well as the comprehensive consultation of your requirements.
Will People Be Able To Tell I’ve Had Treatment? Dr Siobhan will always ask about your expectations and advise you on how much Botox® you will need to achieve your desired result.
What Are The Potential Risks Of Treatment? Before deciding whether to go ahead with treatment it is important that you are aware of the potential risks and side effects of Botox® treatment. Most side effects are related to the actual injecting of the skin and not the product itself. Side effects can include: Minor redness or swelling Minor bruising Headache Migraine - 2% of people can experience this Infection - this is rare and can occur around the injection site Droop of the eyelid - this occurs in very rare cases and is temporary Dr Siobhan will discuss the risks and benefits prior to your treatment. You will also be provided with aftercare instructions to minimise the risks and promote a speedy recovery.
What is a Review appointment? The Review appointment allows Dr Siobhan to assess your results. The appointment and any necessary tweaks (if applicable) are completely free of charge. After your treatment we'll arrange an appointment. The appointment should take place within 2 weeks of your original treatment appointment.
