Dr Esthe Micro Spicule Treatments

Introducing Dr. Esthe's DR SPI-CURE and PEEL-N-GLOW treatments.

These innovative therapies utilize hydrolyzed freshwater micro-sponge spicules, which are abundant in minerals, proteins, and calcium, to promote skin regeneration and resurfacing.


WHAT ARE SPICULES?

Spicules are ultra‑fine, naturally derived microscopic needles — so tiny you can’t see them with the naked eye. When applied to the skin, they create a gentle, controlled micro‑exfoliation that boosts cell turnover and encourages fresh, healthy skin to rise to the surface.
They’re not metal needles and they don’t puncture the skin in the way traditional needling does. Instead, they work like a “smart exfoliant,” stimulating renewal from within while delivering active ingredients deeper into the skin.

Why Clients Love Them...

  • They refine texture and smooth roughness
  • They brighten dull, tired skin
  • They support collagen‑boosting activity
  • They leave the skin feeling tighter, fresher, and more radiant concerns.

The Best part

Spicules continue working for up to 72 hours after your treatment, giving you ongoing rejuvenation long after you leave the clinic.
