Bio-spicule therapy uses naturally derived sponges, microscopic, needle-like structures which rejuvenate the skin without the need for invasive treatment. These spicules and tiny so they can penetrate the pores without causing damage. This serves as a gentle exfoliator and a way to stimulate collagen and elastin. Bristol Skin Clinic is one of the only clinics in Bristol and South West providing Bio-Spicule Therapy for their patients.
How Do the Bio-Spicules work?
Bio-Spicule therapy is similar to microneedling, creating microchannels in the epidermis. This creates a wound healing response particularly good for promoting collagen and elastin; these are the key proteins for skin integrity and elasticity.
The spicules are able to penetrate the epidermis creating precise micro-channels which is minimally invasive to the skin, then our in-built body’s tissue mechanism goes into repair mode to regenerate the treated area.
Following any form of micro-injury, the skin cells become stimulated, fibroblasts respond to the micro injury by migrating to the injury site, then over time, the skin undergoes tissue remodelling, introducing new fresh collagen and elastin fibres to replace sun damaged and aged tissue, resulting in visible improvements including a reduction in fine lines, wrinkles, scarring, pigmentation, tone and texture, increasing cell turnover. This action stimulates new collagen and elastin which contributes to the skins overall improvement and skin health.
This treatment is fantastic for patients with acne, acne scarring, stretch marks, pigmentation, hyperpigmentation, melasma, fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone. Your skin will look fresher and brighter, in as little as 7 days.
Acne Prone Skin
This treatment provides a safe and gentle way to exfoliate the skin, unclog congested pores, promotes skin cell turnover to smooth out uneven texture and its anti-inflammatory antioxidant properties serve as an effective treatment for soothing irritated skin which promotes healing.
Before and After
Ageing Skin
Spicules are able to penetrate and separate the epidermal layers of skin reaching deep into the papillary layer of the dermis, allowing for fibroblasts to be reached, thus creating new collagen and elastin to plump the skin.
Before and After
Scarring
This treatment can dramatically shorten the skin’s natural renewal cycle, speeding up shedding and regeneration so that rough, blemished and uneven texture heals more quickly.

Before and After
Melasma/Pigmenation/Age Spots/Sun Damage
Bio-Spicules help with the body’s internal healing response stimulating cellular health helping to normalise overactive melanocytes (the cells that produce excess melanin which cause visible dark patches.)
Before and After
Uneven Texture and Large Pores
Bio-Spicule Therapy deeply exfoliates; refining rough skin surfaces and tightens large visible pores.
Before and After
This treatment will feel like sharp microscopic needles being rubbed into the skin, the feeling is slightly uncomfortable, similar to a strong exfoliating scrub and it may feel prickly for up to around 3 days after treatment, this is all perfectly normal and will subside at around day 4.
Your skin will look red/pink immediately after treatment. For 2 days your skin may feel warm and a bit spikey to the touch. Some clients get a mild peel after 3-4 days which is all part of the process for skin cell renewal. Full results can be seen after 7 days.
The Bio-Spicule Therapy Treatment is most effective after 3 sessions, taken 3-4 weeks apart for best results. This depends on what skin concern is being treated and your Practitioner will advise you accordingly.
Bio Spicule Therapy prices start from £180.00.
