About

Main objective: an alternative to mechanical metal needling. Transdermal absorption of actives applied alongside

the needling, fast cellular turnover, activation of basal cell division, resurfacing of the epidermis, regeneration of

new skin cells and stimulation of subcutaneous micro-circulation – allowing for drainage as well as feed and

oxygenation to the skin.

Compared to traditional metal needles, Spongilla Spicules are smaller and finer. The Dermaclinical imported

spicules are 99% pure - the Spongilla Spicules (nano needles) have high spicule integrity (they remain whole in the

extraction process).

1 gram of powder contains around 5-6 million needles that penetrate dermally within 7 minutes.

The stinging sensation usually felt with metal cartridge micro-needling is virtually non-existent when compared

(although there is some slight tingling and redness).

No epidermal anaesthetic is needed, and because the spicules are extremely fine, the introduction process does not

pierce the blood vessels, no bleeding will occur, and the wound is very small (in fact it is invisible to the naked eye),

thus greatly reducing the chance of infection.
