Peptides have become one of the most talked-about topics in both aesthetics and wellness, and the questions I’m getting about them are coming up more and more.

The interest makes sense. Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signalling molecules, essentially instructing cells to carry out specific functions like repair, collagen production, reducing inflammation, and tissue regeneration. They’re available both topically in skincare and systemically as injectables, and the range of applications being explored is broad.

In the US in particular, they’ve gained significant traction, with compounds like BPC 157 becoming widely used for recovery and muscle repair, among others. The appeal is understandable. The science behind the mechanism is genuinely interesting, and some of the early data is promising.

Where I’d urge caution is around the current state of the evidence.

Peptides as a category are not all equal, and while there are some well-researched topical peptides with solid clinical backing, the injectable peptide space is a different conversation. Large-scale, robust studies on long-term safety, optimal dosing, and clinical outcomes simply don’t exist yet for many of these compounds. That gap matters, particularly when we’re talking about substances being injected rather than applied to the surface of the skin.

It’s a space worth watching closely, and one where the science needs to catch up with the enthusiasm before blanket recommendations can be made.

The word “lifting” gets used a lot in aesthetics, and it’s often misunderstood. True surgical lifting and what we can achieve with injectables are very different things, but that doesn’t mean injectables can’t create a meaningful improvement in how supported and lifted the face looks.

The key is understanding the anatomy and knowing exactly where to place product to get the most out of it. There are specific areas of the face where strategic volume replacement creates tension in the skin and soft tissue that produces a subtle but visible lift, and these are the areas I focus on when a patient wants to address early laxity without surgery.
Three areas where this approach works particularly well:

- The lateral cheek. As volume is lost here, the light reflex that gives the face its natural lift and contour begins to descend. Restoring volume in precisely the right place brings that back and creates a subtle upward effect on the surrounding tissue.

- The preauricular space. The area just in front of the ear, where a buccal fat pad sits, gradually depletes over time. Replacing volume here places the skin under greater tension and can provide a noticeable improvement in the appearance of sagging in the mid to lower face.

- The temples. Often overlooked, but an important part of facial ageing. Volume loss in the temples contributes directly to heaviness and drooping in the tail of the brow. Restoring it here can create a gentle lift in an area that’s otherwise difficult to address without more invasive options.

Sculptra has become one of the most talked-about biostimulators in aesthetics, and for good reason. It has decades of use behind it, a well-understood mechanism, and it does deliver results when it comes to collagen stimulation and improving skin quality. That’s not in question.

But as with any treatment, a balanced view matters, and there are two things I think are worth being transparent about.

The first is that Sculptra works through an inflammatory pathway. That’s how it stimulates collagen, and it’s effective, but it does place a limit on how frequently it should be used. For me, this sits more comfortably as an initial collagen stimulus rather than something to be repeated regularly over time.

The second is the risk of granulomas. These are hard lumps that can develop in a small number of patients, and unlike many complications in aesthetics, they aren’t reversible. You manage them and wait. It’s a minority of patients who experience this, but it’s a consideration that’s worth factoring in, particularly given there’s no straightforward way to resolve it if it does occur.

Sculptra can be a good option in the right clinical context. The key is going in with a clear understanding of what it does, how it works, and what the limitations are.

Sometimes, the most impactful filler treatment isn’t the area you first think of.

A lot of patients come in worried about under-eyes, smile lines or heaviness through the lower face, but the cause is often higher up.

The midface is one of the key support areas of the face. When volume is lost here, it can affect several areas at once. The under-eyes can look more hollow, the nasolabial folds can look deeper, and the lower face can start to feel heavier as the tissues above lose support.

That’s why treating the midface carefully can make such a difference.

It all comes down to restoring support in the right place, so the face looks fresher, more balanced and less tired without chasing every individual line.

The chin is another area people often underestimate. If the chin sits slightly behind the lower lip, even a small amount of projection can improve the side profile and make the jawline look more balanced. It can bring the lower face into better proportion without needing to over-treat the jawline itself.

This is why assessment matters so much.

Good filler treatment isn’t just about filling the area you’re worried about. It’s about understanding where support has been lost, how the features work together, and where a subtle change will create the most natural improvement.

The regenerative category has grown quickly - polynucleotides, Sunekos, Sculptra, Radiesse, HArmonyCa, Juläine, energy-based device - they all get talked about together, but they’re not doing the same job.

✨️ Some are better for skin quality.

✨️ Some are better for elasticity.

✨️ Some are better for dermal thickness.

✨️ Some are better when there’s volume loss, laxity or deeper structural change.

That’s why age, skin quality, collagen loss, facial structure and your goals all matter when choosing the right treatment.

For someone younger, the priority may be prevention, hydration, elasticity and keeping the skin functioning well. Something like Sunekos can make sense here because we’re not trying to replace volume; we’re supporting the skin early.

For someone with more visible ageing changes, we may need to rebuild support first. That could mean starting with treatments like Sculptra or Juläine to improve skin thickness and collagen support, then layering in something like Sunekos to improve elasticity, function and overall skin quality.

The best results often don’t come from one product doing everything.

They come from understanding what your skin is missing and choosing the right treatment, or combination of treatments, in the right order!

Ageing doesn’t start when the line appears.

By the time a wrinkle is visible at rest, the skin has already been changing underneath for a while. Collagen has started to decline, elasticity is reducing, and the skin isn’t repairing quite as efficiently as it used to.

That’s why early intervention doesn’t have to mean doing too much.

It can be as simple as protecting your skin properly, using the right ingredients consistently, and choosing treatments that support collagen before the changes become harder to treat.

SPF, retinoids and targeted collagen-stimulating treatments like Sunekos can all play a role here.

It’s much easier to slow down visible ageing when the concern is still subtle than it is to correct deeper static lines and folds later on.

Preventative aesthetics is all about being strategic before the damage becomes more obvious 🙌🏾

RF microneedling isn’t overrated, but it has definitely been oversold.

That’s the important distinction.

For a while, it was marketed as if it could lift jowls, tighten loose skin dramatically, and behave almost like a non-surgical facelift. That is where expectations became unrealistic.

Used properly, RF microneedling can be a really useful treatment.

It can stimulate collagen, improve skin texture, refine the appearance of pores and support overall skin quality. For those concerns, it can absolutely have a place.

But if you’re booking it because you want a lifted lower face, a sharper jawline or a facelift-style result, you’re probably going to be disappointed.

This is why consultation matters.

The treatment itself isn’t the problem. The problem is when the wrong treatment is sold for the wrong concern.

Good aesthetics isn’t about choosing what’s popular.

It’s about being honest about what a treatment can and can’t do!

Sunekos doesn’t get the hype some skin boosters do, but it probably deserves more attention.

A lot of treatments are grouped together under “skin boosters”, but they don’t all work in the same way. Some focus mainly on hydration. Some stimulate collagen through an inflammatory response. Some are useful in very specific areas, but less versatile elsewhere.

Sunekos is different because it’s not just about giving the skin a temporary hydrated look.

It’s designed to support the skin’s own regenerative processes by combining hyaluronic acid with a specific amino acid formulation. That matters because amino acids are the raw materials the skin needs to produce important structural proteins.

Sunekos doesn’t just support the types of collagen we usually talk about. It can also help stimulate proteins involved in skin structure, elasticity and the dermal-epidermal junction, including elastin and fibronectin.

That’s why it can be so useful for skin that looks thinner, crepey, tired, dehydrated, or less resilient than it used to.

For me, the value of a treatment isn’t how much noise sits behind it. It’s what it actually does in the skin, how versatile it is, and whether the results make sense clinically.

And on that basis, Sunekos is one I come back to again and again!

Radiesse and Sculptra get grouped together all the time, but they don’t do the same job.

They’re both classed as “biostimulators”, which is where the confusion starts. The assumption is that they’re interchangeable, when actually they’re used for very different reasons in the clinic.

One gives you structure and an immediate change in how the face is supported. The other works slowly in the background, improving skin quality and building collagen over time.

Neither is better - they just solve different problems.

This is where treatment plans often fall short. Choosing based on the name rather than what your skin actually needs. Because if you’re looking for lift and support, one makes more sense. If your concern is thinning, crepey skin, the other is usually the better fit.

The result always comes down to matching the right product to the right indication.

Not just what’s popular, but what will actually give you the outcome you’re looking for.

Are skin-tightening devices one of the biggest scams in aesthetics?

The marketing around these devices almost always leads with “lift and tighten”, and that’s exactly where the gap between expectation and reality tends to open up.

The honest clinical picture is more nuanced than the brochure suggests. There are real benefits to radiofrequency and ultrasound-based treatments, but they’re not always the ones being sold. Understanding what these devices actually do, and what they don’t, is what allows you to make a decision that’s genuinely worth your money.

If you’re considering a skin-tightening treatment and want to know whether it’s right for your specific concern, this is worth watching before you book anything.
