SQT Bio-Microneedling is a brand new revolution to microneedling that is taking the world by storm.  

Safe to use on all skin types and can be used on all areas of the body.

The clinical results are exceeding expectations and will soon replace traditional microneedling as we know it.

What is Bio-Microneedling?

Discover the amazing potential of sponge spicules derived from a freshwater sponge. These microneedles work wonders by stimulating the skin wound healing response. They are 100% natural and safe to use on most skin types, skin conditions and all areas of the body.

3-5 million micro channels are created within 5 minutes of treatment application!

A traditional needling device cannot create the amount of channels that SQT Bio-Microneedling can in one treatment.

The skin is stimulated for up to 72 hours post treatment. The sponge spicules contain minerals and nutrients that are provided to the skin during this treatment. It also improves the effectiveness of topical skin care products, enhancing their absorption by up to 3,000%.

Why do we choose Spongilla Lacustris for SQT

Spongilla Lacustris is a freshwater sponge common in Europe. Sponge spicules are structural components functioning as a “skeleton” and defense system against predators and consisting of calcium carbonate, silica, and Chitin.

Spongilla Lacustris spicule extract is a multifunctional skincare ingredient that comprises all benefits of its natural components. Fine particles are used as an abrasive for mechanical exfoliation or dermabrasion, which polishes and eliminates old, pigmented, and dead cells from the skin surface, exposing a fresher, clearer, and radiant appearance.

Chitin is a long-chain polysaccharide consisting of glucose units, the second most abundant natural polymer after cellulose with similar characteristics. Spongilla Lacustris spicule contains α-chitin. It provides flexibility and strength to spicules and insect exoskeletons. It is not soluble in water, but its derivative chitosan is water-soluble and widely used in skin care applications.

Chitin is a perfect texturising and bulking agent that provides a rich and soft feel. It has similar properties to keratin and is used in hair care formulations for brittle or damaged hair. In addition, thanks to natural antibacterial action against Streptococcus and other bacteria, Chitin is an ideal ingredient for preparations against acne and other skin infections.

In addition, it protects skin from UV exposure, moisturizes and improves water-retention ability (especially in combination with glucans), and binds another active ingredient assisting in the delivery and enhancing the formula’s stability. Spongilla Lacustris spicule extract is a natural, sage, and renewable ingredient to preserve the skin’s beauty and radiant glow.
