What are spongilla spicules and it's core functions?
Spicules are the endoskeleton of a sponge. They are a organic structures that contain key nutrients and
minerals for the skin.
SQT spongilla spicule needles are able to travel deep into the dermal layer of your skin, without the use of invasive procedures to fully transform, renew and rejuvenate skin cells to address a variety of skin concerns.
It is a hydrolyte of the purest organism in the world, a raw material purified by a patented refining technology. Since the siliceous bio microneedles are extracted from a fresh water sponges, SQT is 100% natural, safe to use on all skin types and can be used on all areas of the body – unlike traditional microneedling and chemical-based treatments.
Why is bio microneedling is so effective for skin rejuvenation?
Due to the microscopic size of the bio needles, the tip can penetrate the pores more effectively than any device creating anywhere between 3 to 5 million micro channels within 5 minutes of application.
The natural spicules help activate skin microcirculation, significantly improve skin texture and tone, accelerate skin metabolism and reverse the signs of aging while shortening the renewal cycle of the skin with minimal downtime. It also improves the effectiveness of topical skin care products, enhancing their absorption by up to 3,000%.
What makes it a smarter and non-invasive alternative to traditional treatments?
Compared to the dermal roller and microneedling, bio "needles" are smaller and higher in quantity and can cover more pores. At the same time, bio microneedling is administered through a gentle facial massage, introducing the powerful properties of spongilla spicules into the dermis layers without the use of machines or anaesthesia.
For individuals seeking radiant, glowing skin–this means minimal risk, less sessions, no pain, and a non-invasive experience with minimal downtimes.

- Avoid wearing makeup, masks or any face coverings for up to 7 days as the skin may be sensitive and more prone to irritation. It's important to let your skin breathe.
