Service Description

A Spongilla spicules facial, also known as bio-microneedling or SQT (Skin Quality Treatment) Bio Microneedling, is a skin treatment that uses microscopic needle-like structures derived from freshwater sponges called spicules. These spicules are embedded in a cream or serum and massaged into the skin, creating microchannels that promote exfoliation, collagen production, and enhanced absorption of skincare products.  • What are Spongilla Spicules?
Spongilla spicules are tiny, needle-like structures made of silica that come from freshwater sponges. They are a natural alternative to traditional microneedles used in cosmetic procedures. 
 • How does it work?
The spicules are massaged into the skin, creating tiny punctures that stimulate the skin's natural healing response. This process encourages collagen production, improves skin texture and tone, and enhances the absorption of other skincare ingredients. 

 • What are the benefits?
Spongilla spicules facials are known for: • Exfoliating the skin. 
 • Stimulating collagen and elastin production. 
 • Improving skin texture and tone. 
 • Reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars. 
 • Enhancing the absorption of skincare products. 
 


 Is it painful?
 While some describe a prickling sensation during application, especially for sensitive skin, it's generally considered less painful than traditional microneedling and doesn't typically draw blood or require numbing cream. 




 • Who is it for?
 Spongilla spicule facials are suitable for various skin types, including those with acne, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and signs of aging. However, individuals with very sensitive skin may want to test the treatment on a small area first. 




 • What are the potential side effects?
 Some redness and sensitivity can occur after the treatment, but side effects are generally minimal. 




 • What is the difference from chemical peels? 
Unlike chemical peels that can damage the skin, spongilla spicule treatments are natural and less invasive.
