Skin boosters

Promoting skin regeneration

At Finesse Skin Clinic, we offer TEOXANE Redensity 1 skin boosters. These are injectables entirely different to dermal fillers, used for skin regeneration, hydration and plumping wrinkles and fine lines out.

What are skin boosters?

Skin boosters are injectables which use a patented formula, combining amino acids with hyaluronic acid. The amino acids are essential for the creation of healthy skin and promote the body’s own production of collagen and elastin. This process rebuilds the dermal layers of the skin and restores the natural youthful look by tightening the area, improving the skin hydration and texture and plumping wrinkles and lines out. So not only does it dramatically reduce the signs of ageing, the results look completely natural too. The skin is left looking smooth, hydrated and glowing.

Frequently asked questions

What are the main benefits of skin boosters?

Skin boosters correct and protect the dermis from the signs of ageing. TEOXANE redensity 1 is the only natural product in professional aesthetics that stimulates the synthesis of collagen and elastin, restoring elasticity and volume to the skin.

How many treatments do I need?

SuneKos requires a course of 4 treatments, usually 7-10 days apart. The entire course must be completed for the area to get the intended results.

How long does the treatment usually take?

The treatment will normally be completed in 30 mins however if you require numbing cream this may take a little longer.

Is it painful?

The treatment does involve lots of little injections, but we use such fine needles that it is virtually painless. Numbing cream can be used if requested although most patients opt to have the treatment without this.

What happens during the procedure?

If SuneKos is right for you, the treatment will begin by cleansing your face. it is helpful if you arrive make-up free to make cleansing easier. If you have chosen numbing cream then this will be applied for approximately 15-20 minutes before the procedure begins. Your face will then be marked up for treatment. During the treatment a fine needle or cannula is used to deliver the chosen SuneKos solution into the target areas, avoiding facial veins to minimise the risk of bruising.

What is the recovery time post procedure?

There is usually minimal recovery time after SuneKos treatment. Typically you will notice some small bumps in the skin where the product has been injected, which usually disappear within a few hours, but can take 72 hours to completely resolve. Whilst the procedure could be carried out in your lunch break, it is advisable that the treatment is carried out 2 weeks ahead of any event where you would not want such side effects to be visible. However, if there is bruising, the area can be covered with make-up after 6 hours.

Are there any side effects?

The injection of hyaluronic acid is considered a safe medical procedure. The most common side effects are tenderness and bruising around the injection areas. Despite the procedure being carried out with skill and diligence an infection could occur and the formation of a nodule or cyst where the product has been injected.

When will I see results?

Some changes can be noticed after the first treatment however, best results will be seen after your fourth treatment.

How long do the results last?

SuneKos lasts up to 6 months depending on the level of correction needed and patient lifestyle, although research suggests there is still improvement in the skin for approximately 8 months afterwards.

Do I need further treatments?

Maintenance treatment is suggested at 4 to 7 months post treatment. One to 2 treatments may be needed.

When can I resume normal activities?

Immediately for most activities. Avoid swimming for 48 hours and extreme temperatures for 7 days. Avoid massaging the area treated for 24 hours. Full aftercare will be provided prior to treatment.

Do I need a consultation prior to treatment?

Yes – your practitioner will ask you some questions to ensure you are suitable for the treatment.

Is there any advice to follow ahead of treatment?

Yes –We offer the following advice before treatment.

Do not consume alcohol for at least 24 hours before treatment as it thins the blood and increases the possibility of bruising.

Avoid hair removal – shaving, waxing, laser treatment or creams in the area you are having treatment to minimise irritation and reduce the risk of infection.
Avoid anti-ageing creams containing substances like retinol, glycolic acid and alpha-hydroxy acids to minimise irritation and reduce the risk of infection.
Do not wear makeup on the day of the procedure to reduce the risk of infection.
Make sure you eat before the procedure to stop you feeling faint.
Consider stopping certain medicines, vitamins and supplements seven days before treatment to minimise the risk of bruising – (however always discuss with your practitioner first to see if it is safe to do so):

- Blood thinners like aspirin
- Anti-inflammatories eg ibuprofen
- High dose vitamin E
- Omega 3 fish oils
- Gingko biloba
- St Johns Wort

First experience with Sarah. Very professional and friendly. Definitely recommend

celine jacobs

Had some marks on my face frozen off, hardly any pain and a week later the scabs fell off and the marks are gone 😁 very happy with the service I received.

Hugo Kirkwood

I saw Sarah as I had a lump appear on my head after banging my head too many times in the same place! Sarah was great, really easy to chat to and organise an appointment the same day, same in person really easy to chat too explaining the process and putting me at ease. Procedure was easy pain free and all done in minutes, 3 days later the lump was gone and now a week later all healed. I would highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to see her again should I ever need to.

Sarah really is an expert in her field. She is so patient, and is always open to receiving lots of questions about a treatment. She is great at managing expectations and getting the best results for her clients. She is really passionate about what she does and that is clear whenever you go to the clinic.

Claire Pullin

I came to Finesse as a recommendation station from my husband! He was having Botox treatments and rated Sarah highly. My initial consultation was very thorough and I wasn’t made to feel pressured to sign up to anything straight away. I decided on the 12 month package and started my new skin care routine with confidence. I then had some Botox and Dermol filler and every step of the way I was reassured of the outcome and what to expect. Superbly professional but also very personable Can’t recommend more highly. Outstanding service and customer care

Stacey Morgan

I would not trust anyone else with my skin! In under 6 months Sarah has transformed my skin from dry, sensitive and spot prone, to much more hydrated and consistently clear. She gives true recommendations for what she thinks will work best for you, not just what is trendy, and will also be honest if she doesn’t think a treatment is right for you. The absolute best.

Michael Bennett

Fab experience would highly recommend

Ella Perry

Sarah was so lovely and explained anything really well giving recommendations not just of products but of dietary and lifestyle changes I can make to help my acne which i’m really excited to see results of! Would definitely recommend to anyone struggling with their skin :)

Roderick Ireland

My visit to Finesse Clinic was a pleasure. Sarah is friendly, caring & professional.I was unsure what to expect but was put at ease straight away. The removal of a group of skin tags from my eyelids was a complete success. I feel so much happier now they don’t stare back at me in the mirror. Sarah phoned the next day to check all was well. I would 100% recommend Sarah & Finesse Clinic to anyone. Thanks Sarah x

Katie Wilson

I’ve been going to Sarah at Finesse Skin Clinic in Frampton on Severn for around four years now, and the results have been genuinely incredible. She’s so knowledgeable and honest, and my skin has never looked better. I always feel completely safe in her hands. I’ve had both the Signature package and the Time to Sparkle package, and the results have been amazing every time. Sarah’s expertise and care are what keep me coming back. I couldn’t recommend Finesse Skin Clinic more highly.

SuneKos Skin Booster is an injectable treatment that is entirely different to dermal fillers. This treatment uses a patented formula which combines amino acids with hyaluronic acid.

SuneKos Skin Booster offers two different treatment options for skin regeneration, which can be performed separately or in combination – SuneKos 200 and SuneKos 1200.

SuneKos 1200 is used as a booster in combination with SuneKos 200 for severe wrinkles and damaged skin. The combined use helps to counteract the loss of volume within the skin in these patients.
