SQT’s approach is classed as needling rather than peeling because it engages the skin’s deeper layers, bypassing the outermost stratum corneum. This treatment induces a natural peeling effect (desquamation), a continuous process that accelerates after treatment, leading to increased cell turnover.
The variability in peeling between clients is normal, as individual skin responses differ. Peeling can also vary depending on the amount of pressure used during application of the treatment, pre-skin condition and use of specific products at home before and after treatment. If you do not peel, it doesn’t mean it’s not working; the treatment initiates the healing and repair from the inside out, even if not immediately visible.
