How SQT Bio-Microneedling Works
What are the bio-microneedles and how do they work?
SQT’s “bio-microneedles” are spongilla spicules, tiny natural structures extracted from freshwater sponges. They do the same job as a metal microneedle, creating a channel into the skin, but biologically rather than mechanically. The sponges are dried through a 60-hour infrared process, then polished into a fine powder. It looks smooth to the eye, but under a microscope each particle is a sharp, barbed rod, which is what lets it work as a natural needle. SQT’s formulation is over 99% pure, leaving less residual debris in the skin than lower-grade alternatives for a more comfortable, consistent result.
Once massaged into the dermis, the spicules clear away dead skin and debris, boost micro-circulation, and activate basal cells to generate new skin. They stay active for up to 72 hours before shedding naturally, unlike a metal needle, which does all its work in the few minutes of the appointment itself.

I had arm fat cavitation treatment done with Ammesha, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was incredibly informative from start to finish, taking the time to explain the entire process, what to expect during the session, and the aftercare needed to get the best results. Her approach is warm, patient, and genuinely caring, which made me feel completely comfortable throughout the treatment.
The follow-up was just as thorough, with clear guidance and check-ins that showed she truly cares about her clients’ outcomes. The results speak for themselves, but the professionalism and personalised attention are what really set her apart.
I highly recommend Ammesha if you’re considering cavitation or any body contouring treatments. She’s knowledgeable, attentive, and an absolute gem in this space.

I recently had a body treatment with Ammesha Bodyy Shape Aesthetic and the experience was worth sharing.
From the moment I arrived, she created a calm and welcoming atmosphere that immediately put me at ease. She took the time to explain the process, listened carefully to what I wanted, and made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. That level of attentiveness made a big difference.
The treatment itself was both relaxing and effective. You can tell she's experienced—not just going through the motions, but really focusing on technique and care. I left feeling refreshed, lighter, and noticeably better in my body.
What stood out most was Ammesha's genuine approach. It didn’t feel rushed or impersonal. She clearly take pride in her work and care about her clients’ results and comfort.
If you’re looking for someone who combines skill, professionalism, and a personal touch, I’d definitely recommend giving Bodyy Shape Aesthetic a try.

SQT Bio-Microneedling is a needle-free skin resurfacing treatment that uses microscopic Spongilla spicules, derived from freshwater sponges, instead of traditional metal needles. The spicules are gently massaged into the skin to stimulate the skin’s natural renewal process and support collagen and elastin production.
Unlike traditional microneedling, SQT does not use mechanical needles, skin puncturing, bleeding, or numbing cream, making it a gentler alternative for certain skin concerns.
Most clients describe it as more of a sensation than pain, similar to a firm exfoliating scrub or a light pricking feeling, rather than the sharper discomfort associated with metal needles. No numbing cream is used because it isn’t needed.
We recommend a minimum of 3 treatments for most concerns. More significant issues, such as deeper acne scarring or stubborn pigmentation, may need 5 to 6 sessions. Your practitioner will give you a realistic number after your consultation, based on your specific skin.
Yes, generally, though we recommend seeking medical advice first if you have any concerns and confirming suitability with your practitioner.
Yes, unless you have a known allergy to spicules. It’s one of the gentler options available for reactive or easily irritated skin.
Peeling depends on how much pressure was used during the facial massage and your skin’s condition going in. If you don’t visibly peel, it doesn’t mean the treatment isn’t working. If your skin showed redness (erythema) during treatment, collagen synthesis has already started.
No. SQT doesn’t contain acids, chemicals, or fragrances. It’s a 100% natural spicule-based treatment.
Some clients notice a difference after their first session, though this varies by individual. The most noticeable and lasting improvements build up over a course of treatments rather than after a single visit.
Most redness settles within 24 hours. The tingling or prickly sensation can continue for 48 to 72 hours, because unlike metal needles, the spicules keep stimulating the skin after your appointment ends, rather than doing all their work during the session itself.
Yes, in many cases. Book a consultation and we’ll map out a combined treatment plan suited to your goals.
Because it works at the deeper skin layers, bypassing the outermost stratum corneum, rather than exfoliating the surface. The peeling you may notice afterward (desquamation) is a natural downstream effect of that deeper stimulation, not the mechanism itself.
Each spicule measures roughly 18 to 25 micrometres in diameter and 200 to 300 micrometres in length. For comparison, the average epidermis thickness is around 200 micrometres.
SQT uses a spicule formulation that’s over 99% pure, among the highest purity levels available. Lower-purity alternatives can leave behind residual debris and damaged spicules, which affects both comfort and consistency of results. SQT spicules are also naturally odour-free rather than masked with added fragrance.
No, see the comparison table above for how they differ on sessions needed, downtime, and suitability for active acne.
SQT Bio-Microneedling can be worth considering if you want to improve skin texture, support collagen production, and refresh the skin without traditional needles. Results vary by skin concern, and a short course may be recommended for more noticeable results.
