Scars are often an unwelcome reminder of past injuries, surgeries, or skin conditions like acne. Many people search for solutions to reduce the appearance of scars, but treatments can sometimes feel invasive, painful, or ineffective. This is where SQT Bio-Microneedling steps in—an innovative, natural solution that promises smoother, healthier skin without the need for harsh chemicals or painful recovery times. This article explores how SQT Bio-Microneedling works, its benefits for scar treatment, and how skin care professionals can incorporate this advanced treatment into their practice.
Understanding SQT Bio-Microneedling
Before discussing how it improves scar appearance, it's important to understand what SQT Bio-Microneedling is and how it works. Unlike traditional micro-needling, which uses metal needles to create tiny punctures in the skin, SQT Bio-Microneedling uses biological microneedles, which are tiny siliceous barbed-like structures, derived from the endoskeleton of a freshwater sponge species. These spicules act as natural micro-needles that penetrate the skin's surface via the pore when topically applied.Â
Once these microchannels are created, active substances can penetrate deep into the dermis layer of the skin, nourishing it from below. These microchannels also stimulate collagen and elastin production, which are crucial for skin regeneration. In the days following the treatment, the skin’s microcirculation improves, resulting in firmer, more vibrant, and healthier-looking skin.
The Science Behind Scar Improvement
Scars form when the skin’s natural healing process is disrupted, often leading to thickened, raised, or discoloured areas on the skin. SQT Bio-Microneedling helps in several key ways:
Collagen and Elastin Stimulation
Collagen is the main protein responsible for skin structure and elasticity, while elastin helps the skin return to its original shape after stretching or contracting. When you have scars, especially raised or deep scars like those caused by acne, the skin lacks sufficient collagen and elastin in the affected areas. SQT Bio-Microneedling stimulates the production of both, which aids in repairing and smoothing out scar tissue. This boost in collagen also helps the skin to fill in indented scars, leading to an overall smoother texture.
Improved Skin Microcirculation
SQT Bio-Microneedling enhances the blood flow to the treated areas, allowing the skin to receive more oxygen and nutrients. This improved microcirculation supports the skin's natural healing process, helping to reduce inflammation and discolouration associated with scars. Over time, scars become less noticeable as the skin repairs itself from the inside out.
Deep Skin Nourishment
One of the unique aspects of SQT Bio-Microneedling is how it delivers active ingredients deep into the skin. These ingredients, often infused with vitamins, peptides, and antioxidants, work to nourish and rejuvenate the skin, accelerating the healing process and improving overall skin health. For people struggling with scars, this deep nourishment can help restore a smoother, more even complexion.
Why is SQT Bio-Microneedling a Game Changer?
Traditional scar treatments often involve harsh chemicals, laser therapies, or surgical procedures, which can have significant downtime and come with risks such as irritation, pigmentation issues, or prolonged redness or even worse, further scarring. SQT Bio-Microneedling, on the other hand, is a minimally invasive procedure that delivers noticeable results without damaging the skin's barrier or requiring extensive recovery.
Gentle on the Skin
One of the main benefits of SQT Bio-Microneedling is that it doesn’t use harsh chemicals or acids, which can irritate sensitive skin, especially if you're already dealing with scars. Because the microneedles are derived from natural spicules, the treatment is more skin-friendly, reducing the risk of allergic reactions or adverse effects.
Minimal Downtime
While some mild inflammation and redness may occur immediately after the treatment, these symptoms usually subside within a day or two.l and are completely normal. Unlike other treatments that require you to avoid sunlight for extended periods of time or use extensive aftercare products, SQT Bio-Microneedling has a relatively fast recovery time. All you need to do is protect your skin from direct sunlight for a few days and apply SPF 50 afterwards to ensure safe, optimal healing.
Safe for All Skin Types
Many scar treatments are not suitable for people with darker skin tones, as they can lead to hyperpigmentation and increase scarring. SQT Bio-Microneedling is safe for all skin types and tones, making it an ideal option for anyone looking to improve the appearance of scars without the risk of pigmentation changes.
Long-Lasting Results
One of the most exciting aspects of SQT Bio-Microneedling is its ability to deliver long-lasting results. While the initial improvement in skin texture and scar appearance is noticeable (usually after just one session), the real benefits continue to develop in the days and weeks following treatment. This is because the skin continues to produce collagen and elastin for up to 72 hours post-treatment, leading to ongoing improvement in scar texture and appearance.
What to Expect During and After Treatment?
The SQT Bio-Microneedling process is relatively quick and straightforward. During the procedure, a trained SQT therapist will apply the spicule-based Bio-Microneedling serum to the skin using their fingers and hands. You may feel a slight tingling or prickly sensation as the spicules create microchannels in the skin, but the discomfort is usually minimal.
After the treatment, you may experience some redness and mild inflammation, similar to a mild sunburn, but this typically fades within a day. Most people can return to their regular activities immediately, although it's essential to avoid direct sunlight for the first three days post-treatment and apply SPF 50 + from day 3, to protect your skin.
