SQT BIO MICRONEEDLING
SQT BIO MICRONEEDLING: THE NEW GENERATION MICRO-NEEDLING
Introduction: SQT introduces a brand-new Bio Micro-needling treatment revolutionizing aesthetic dermatology. Unlike traditional machine-based methods, SQT employs natural micro-needles to stimulate scar healing and enhance skin cell renewal on any part of the face or body.
Description: In just 5 minutes, 3 million natural micro-needles are delicately delivered into the skin’s epidermis & dermis. These sponge spicules, derived from freshwater sponges, activate skin surface microcirculation and effectively transport active ingredients to the dermis layer while stimulating basal skin cells. They appear as powder to the naked eye and as sharp rod crystals under a microscope. SQT Bio Micro-needling promises no bleeding, no anesthesia, and no skin breakage while shortening the skin cycle from 28 days to 7 days, achieving natural, safe, and effective physical rejuvenation.

Possible Side Effects after SQT:
- Redness: Most people will experience redness, typically lasting 1-2 days. This is a normal reaction as dead skin cells are metabolized.
- Dryness: The skin may become relatively dry for a few days post-treatment due to the skin cell renewal process. Additional moisture and nutrition are recommended.
- Itching: Itching indicates poor original skin condition and accelerated skin renewal under spongilla spicules therapy. Gently pat with pure water or recovery serum to alleviate itching.
- Peeling: Due to the accumulation of old keratinous skin, varying degrees of stratum corneum renewal and peeling may occur. Patients should avoid picking the skin.
- Acne and Bumps – Skin Purging: For acne-prone skin, purging may occur, discharging acne and closed acne on the third day. Pigmentation may darken initially but will slough off with old dead skin. Spongilla spicules can last in the skin for up to 48-72 hours, after which they are discharged with the stratum corneum. Skin cycle renewal is accelerated by 3 weeks, necessitating SQT treatment every 14 days.
Aftercare:
- Lightly cleanse your face with warm water for 1-2 days after SQT® Spongilla Spicules Therapy. Avoid any skincare products for the first 24 hours.
- Use a hypoallergenic cleanser for 3-5 days after using SQT® Spongilla Spicules. Avoid products containing alcohol, exfoliating agents, or grains.
- Use the SQT® Spongilla Recovery Set twice daily for five days post-treatment, followed by your regular skincare routine, including a Gentle cleanser, Hyaluronic Acid, and Broad-spectrum SPF50.
- Calm itchy skin with alcohol-free toners or damp cotton pads. Avoid scratching dry and itchy areas.
- Peeling may occur on the third day post-treatment. Avoid forceful peeling and moisturize the skin thoroughly to prevent scarring or irritation.
- Protect the skin from sun exposure post-treatment. Apply a non-irritating sunscreen as the skin is sensitive to UV rays, which can cause freckles or pigmentation if left unprotected.

Clients FAQs
- When Can I Start to See Results
It can take up to 6 weeks before any improvement is noticed, and to see the full benefits you will achieve, it can take up to another five months for the full long lasting effects of this treatment. So as excellent as it is, this is not an instant quick fix but more long-term natural improvement.
- Is it a safe treatment
Yes, it is a very safe treatment and on top of this we will conduct a comprehensive medical assessment before your treatment. The treatment doesn’t involve injecting the skin with any substances, it’s merely light pricks the surface of the skin to create hundreds of micro injuries. It is a minimally invasive procedure with up to 48 hours’ downtime, rapid healing and it requires very simple after-care.
- Does the Treatment Hurt
There is minimal discomfort, however we use a topical anaesthetic cream that is very effective in numbing the area to be treated. Everybody is different and you may find this treatment slightly uncomfortable, however, we can change the needle depth and speed during the treatment.
- How Long Does the Treatment Take
You will need to allocate between two hours from start to finish for one treatment to allow time for both the topical anaesthetic and the treatment itself. Depending on the area to be treated for example a small scar of full face may take around 90 minutes, where larger areas involving stretch marks will usually take longer.
- How Long Do The Results Last
The process will continue to improve for up to 12 months, dependent on age, providing you with a natural and long-lasting enhancement. The repair itself is permanent until your body breaks down collagen as it naturally will through ageing.
- How Will the Skin Look
Initially the skin will appear flushed, giving a mild sunburn look for up to 48 hours. Then the skin will start to feel tight. After that, the skin will look brighter and more vibrant and then approximately six weeks later the regeneration and repair process starts to tighten the skin.
- How Many Treatments Will I Need
The number of treatments required will depend on the area type in its size and severity. We recommend a course of typically 4 to 8 treatment sessions to get maximum results, with treatments spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart, however individual needs of results will vary from client to client.
To get the best results from a Micro Needing treatment, it is important that clients complete the full course recommended by the practitioner. At the first consultation, a treatment plan will be set and desired results determined. This allows for progress and results to be monitored after each session.
Skin Rejuvenation treatments: 1 to 6 depending on severity of skin tone, texture, lines and all wrinkles to be treated (then on going twice a year or quarterly dependent on how the client feels and what is appropriate afterwards to prevent the ageing process)
Acne scar removal treatments: 2 to 4 treatments, but sometimes more if acne scars are over a larger area and are very deep.
Stretch mark removal treatments: 4 to 8 to achieve maximum results, the first few treatments tighten the skin and visible colour improvements can also be seen.
General scar removal treatments – 3 to 6 treatments dependent of size and severity.
- Can the treatment be carried out on Asian & Darker skin tones?
Yes, the treatment can be carried out on all skin types, there are no risks or post inflammatory hyper-pigmentation as the melanin remains intact, during the procedure.
