Liquid Spicule Treatments: A Girl’s Guide to Liquid Microneedling
What Are Liquid Spicule Treatments?
Liquid spicule treatments use microscopic, naturally derived needles from marine sponges. When massaged into the skin, these tiny spicules create micro-pathways that help serums and active ingredients penetrate deeper.
It’s like exfoliation that actually does something. You’ll feel a mild prickly sensation for a few hours, but it’s not painful. Most people describe it as a “tingly refresh.”
How It Works
The spicules form micro channels that boost the delivery of nutrients like peptides, antioxidants, and brighteners.
They gently trigger your skin’s renewal cycle, encouraging fresh cells and collagen to come to the surface.
You get smoother, clearer, and more radiant skin without actual needles, lasers, or peeling.
Why People Love It
Refines skin texture and pores
Brightens tone and smooths roughness
Improves absorption of skincare products
Little to no downtime, just mild tingling or redness
It’s the perfect “in between” treatment for those who want amazing results but don’t have time to recover from microneedling or a peel.
When To Skip It
If your skin barrier is already compromised, this isn’t your go-to. Let us focus on barrier repair first, then revisit once your skin is stable.
What It Feels Like
Your skin is cleansed and prepped before the spicule serum is massaged in. You’ll feel a light prickling that fades within a few hours, but can last up to two days. Afterward, your skin feels tighter, smoother, and more vibrant.
Aftercare
Keep it simple. Moisturize, protect with SPF, and skip exfoliants or retinoids for seven days. Your skin will continue to glow as it renews itself naturally.
The ilumé Take
At Ilumé, we like to think of liquid spicules as a “smart reset” for your skin. They bridge the gap between a facial and RF microneedling… powerful, yet gentle enough for regular maintenance.
It’s a great option if your skin feels dull, sluggish, or needs a boost before an event. It’s not for deep scars or heavy lifting, but for tone, texture, and glow, it’s a win.
