Regenerative treatments emphasise natural components & cutting-edge technologies to support the skin’s biological healing processes.
They are the future of our industry & The Glow Nurse is hugely excited by this area of appearance medicine.
Depending on the treatment, some of the benefits include:
- Hydration/glow/radiance
- Firming/tightening
- Reduction in fine lines/wrinkles
- Improved texture/tone & reduced pore size
- Brightening (including under eyes)
- Improvement in acne/scars, rosacea, pigmentation, eczema
The goal is to slow the skin ageing process, reverse existing signs of ageing & to promote long-term skin health. Collagen & elastin stimulation are at the heart of these rejuvenating treatments!
Sunekos is a regenerative injectable treatment that improves skin quality and overall health by stimulating collagen and elastin with a unique combination of hyaluronic acid and amino acids. It’s especially well-suited for delicate areas like the under-eyes and forehead, where other treatments may not be suitable.
Sunekos combines low molecular weight hyaluronic acid with a patented complex of six essential amino acids. This stimulates fibroblast activity, promoting the production of collagen types I, III, IV, and elastin. The result is improved skin architecture, hydration, and elasticity with visible smoothing of fine lines. Two different products are used: 1200 and Performa. 1200 + Performa are both injected at your first appointment and then Performa only at the second and third.
Both are part of the Sunekos range, designed to naturally stimulate collagen and elastin production for skin regeneration. The difference lies in their strength and role within your treatment plan:
How are they used?
To ensure the best results and minimise the risk of bruising or swelling, we recommend:
Rejuran is a regenerative polynucleotide (PN) treatment designed to restore skin health, repair damage, and improve quality from within. Using DNA fragments derived from salmon, it stimulates natural regeneration at a cellular level, making it particularly effective for delicate or thinning areas such as the under-eyes and forehead, and for improving the appearance of certain types of scars. It can also help achieve a “glass skin” effect - for smooth, hydrated, and radiant-looking skin.
Rejuran contains polynucleotides (PNs)—biologically active DNA fragments that mimic the body’s own nucleic acids, created from salmon DNA. PNs stimulate fibroblast activity, promote collagen and elastin production, and repair the extracellular matrix.
To ensure the best results and minimise the risk of bruising or swelling, we recommend:
Profhilo is a revolutionary injectable treatment that improves overall skin quality by stimulating collagen and elastin and deeply hydrating the skin from within. Unlike fillers, it doesn’t add bulk or change your natural features - instead, it works to bio-remodel the skin, restoring firmness, elasticity, and a youthful glow.
Profhilo is made from high-purity hyaluronic acid (HA) with low- and high-molecular-weight chains. This allows the product to spread evenly beneath the skin, stimulating five types of collagen and elastin, improving hydration, elasticity, and firmness. It bioremodels the skin without adding bulk.
To ensure the best results and minimise the risk of bruising or swelling, we recommend:
Profhilo Structura is the latest evolution of Profhilo, designed to address both skin quality and subtle volume loss. It gently restores soft contours in the mid/lower face while delivering Profhilo’s signature benefits of hydration, elasticity, and firmness.
To ensure the best results and minimise the risk of bruising or swelling, we recommend:
Beautifeye® is a specialised under-eye treatment using Fillmed NCTF 135HA, a blend of hyaluronic acid, vitamins, amino acids, minerals, and antioxidants. It targets fine lines, crepiness, dark circles, and loss of radiance, giving your eyes a rested, refreshed, and brighter look.
To ensure the best results and minimise the risk of bruising or swelling, we recommend:
Smooth Mono PDO Threads are a minimally invasive treatment designed to firm and lift areas of sagging or lax skin. The threads stimulate collagen production over time, improving skin quality, elasticity, and firmness. They are particularly effective for areas like the under-chin, jawline, and lower cheeks.
To ensure optimal results and minimise the risk of complications:
Exosome Therapy is a cutting-edge regenerative treatment that uses cell-derived growth factors, signaling proteins, and messenger molecules to stimulate skin repair and rejuvenation. Delivered via microneedling, exosomes penetrate the skin’s surface to enhance collagen and elastin production, improve texture, and restore a youthful glow—without the need for injections.

Every skin and concern is unique, and the best treatment depends on your goals, areas of concern, skin quality, and desired results. That’s why we offer complimentary consultations, where we can assess your skin, explain the options, and create a personalised plan tailored to you.
During your consultation, we’ll discuss:
Our goal is to help you choose the right regenerative treatment so you achieve natural, healthy, and long-lasting results.
Each treatment type has a specific role:
Often, the best results come from a combination approach—tailored to your unique skin, goals, and budget. During a complimentary consultation, we can assess your skin, discuss your priorities, and create a personalised treatment plan that may combine one or more treatment types for optimal results.
Our goal is to help you achieve natural, balanced, and long-lasting improvements that suit your individual presentation.
Collagen and elastin are key structural proteins in the skin that keep it strong, firm, and elastic:
As we age, collagen and elastin naturally decline, leading to fine lines, wrinkles, crepey texture, and reduced skin firmness. Regenerative treatments, such as Profhilo, Rejuran, Sunekos, and skin boosters, help stimulate your body’s own collagen and elastin production. This promotes healthier, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin over time.
During a complimentary consultation, we can assess your skin’s collagen and elastin levels and recommend the best treatment plan to restore structure, elasticity, and overall skin health.
Every person’s tolerance varies of course. Injectables can be a little stingy, but in our experience - not unbearable. You will be numbed to reduce discomfort & TGN has a few tricks up her sleeve. Most people find treatment quite comfortable.
Again, a consultation is the only way to determine this! As a rule, filler is for correcting more obvious volume loss/hollows & skin boosters are best for improving undereye skin quality/brightening. Sometimes a combination is the best choice. Most people can benefit from under eye skin boosters, where not many people are actually ideal candidates for tear trough filler.
Classic Profhilo and Profhilo Structura target different layers and areas of the face, making them highly complementary:
When used together, Classic Profhilo enhances the skin’s surface quality and radiance, while Structura provides support and contour in the mid and lower face. This dual approach offers a comprehensive, natural-looking rejuvenation that addresses both skin texture and deeper structural changes.
During your consultation, we’ll guide you on whether combining them is best for your goals, budget, and unique presentation.
