Dr. Èsthe™ spicule facials — advanced Korean needle-free resurfacing for pigment, congestion, texture & glow.

The brightening PEEL-N-GLOW pathway is designed for uneven tone, dullness and visible sun damage. Delivering five million finely ground spicules into the skin, this protocol creates a dense network of micro-channels that accelerate the shedding of pigmented cells and improve the distribution of melanin across the epidermis.

Formulated to reduce uneven tone and dullness, this version of PEEL-N-GLOW is enriched with brightening actives chosen for their ability to target stubborn patchiness without aggressively stripping the surface. Pearl powder extract helps promote a more luminous, light-reflective finish, while volcanic ash supports controlled exfoliation for a smoother texture.

Over a series of treatments, clients usually notice that areas of mottled or sun-induced discoloration look more blended, and old post-inflammatory marks begin to soften. Rather than creating an artificial “bleached” look, the aim is a more naturally even complexion that looks fresher in both daylight and under OBSERV™ imaging.

This protocol is particularly well suited to those whose skin feels flat or lacklustre despite using brightening serums at home. By combining spicule-driven renewal with pigment-focused actives, PEEL-N-GLOW brightening works at a deeper level than a standard peel or exfoliating facial while still respecting the skin barrier.

The clarifying PEEL-N-GLOW protocol is aimed at decongesting pores, refining breakout-prone skin and soothing associated inflammation. Using the same five million spicule delivery system, this version focuses on loosening compacted debris within pores and encouraging more efficient cell turnover in areas prone to congestion.

Clarifying and calming actives are combined with pearl powder and volcanic ash to refine texture while helping to calm redness around active and healing breakouts. The goal is to smooth out the “bumpy” look that often remains even when breakouts themselves have started to settle, especially across the cheeks, jawline and T-zone.

Over time, this protocol can help reduce the frequency and visibility of congestion hotspots, improving how your skin looks both bare and under makeup. Pores may appear more refined, and the contrast between inflamed areas and the rest of the face becomes less pronounced as overall clarity improves.

PEEL-N-GLOW clarifying is a strong option if your skin feels constantly textured or clogged despite regular exfoliation, or if you are prone to recurring blackheads and small bumps that never fully go away. When paired with the right homecare and possibly LED or other supportive treatments, it can form the backbone of a clear-skin strategy that still honours barrier health.

DR SPI-CURE is formulated with approximately one million spicules per treatment and is positioned as a powerhouse protocol for intensive skin rejuvenation and collagen support. Instead of a full-face spreading technique, it is delivered via a rich cream texture using a precise dot-application method, allowing us to focus more product and stimulation where it is needed most.

This protocol is infused with a peptide complex to visibly reduce fine lines and wrinkles, niacinamide to support barrier function and even skin tone, and Skin Derma Rejuven — a patented ingredient unique to Dr. Èsthe™ that helps enhance elasticity and firmness. Together, these actives support improvements in skin density, bounce and overall skin quality.

DR SPI-CURE is ideal for clients seeking visibly smoother, firmer and more refined skin, particularly around areas that show early laxity or etched-in lines. It is suited to those who want meaningful anti-ageing results but either are not ready for or want to complement more invasive modalities.

In many cases, DR SPI-CURE is integrated into a broader plan that may include HIFU, microneedling or Futera Dots™. Used in this way, it supports collagen from another angle, enhancing texture, tone and resilience while helping the skin recover and remodel in a more organised way over time.

During the treatment, you will feel a prickly or tingling sensation as the spicules are worked into the skin. This is normal and expected — it reflects the mechanical presence of the spicules within the upper layers of the skin and the way they interact with nerve endings. Some areas, such as the cheeks or forehead, may feel more intense than others.

Over the next 24–48 hours, many clients describe the skin as feeling “prickly” or slightly rough to the touch, especially when pressing or washing the face. This sensation gradually settles as the spicules dissolve and the skin begins its repair and regeneration process, leading into the smoother, clearer phase.

Your therapist will talk you through what to expect during and after your session, including how to manage any sensitivity at home. If you are nervous about sensation, we can start conservatively and gradually build intensity over time as your confidence and tolerance increase.

Most clients experience some degree of redness, warmth and mild roughness after treatment. The first one to three days typically feel like a controlled resurfacing phase, where the skin may feel tighter, drier or more textured than usual as it renews.

As that phase passes, the skin begins to reveal its post-treatment state: smoother texture, clearer tone, and improved light reflection. This is often when you notice that makeup sits better, congestion looks reduced and pigment areas appear softer.

We provide a clear aftercare plan tailored to your skin type, including how to cleanse, what to avoid and when to resume actives. Consistent SPF is non-negotiable while the skin is in its healing window, especially when we are targeting pigmentation or working with spicule-based resurfacing.

Some clients see visible improvement in glow and texture after a single Dr. Èsthe™ session, especially when the main concerns are dullness or mild congestion. However, deeper concerns such as pigmentation, scarring or early-ageing changes usually require a structured course for best results.

A typical plan may involve three to four treatments spaced a few weeks apart, combined with supportive products at home and, in some cases, complementary in-clinic treatments. During your consultation, we will discuss what is realistic based on your concerns, lifestyle and how your skin tends to heal.

Our goal is to create a sustainable plan that fits your schedule and tolerance level. Rather than pushing the skin too quickly, we focus on layered improvements that build over time, so that results are not only visible but also stable and long-lasting.

Yes. Dr. Èsthe™ spicule protocols can be strategically combined with other technologies such as Futera Dots™, HIFU, microneedling, LED or Korean glass-skin facials. The exact combination and timing will depend on your skin type, concerns and tolerance.

In many cases, spicule treatments are used between or alongside energy-based procedures to support ongoing collagen remodelling, maintain clarity and refine texture. This layered approach can produce a more complete result than relying on a single modality alone.

Your therapist will create a step-by-step roadmap that outlines which treatments are done when, and how your home routine supports the in-clinic work. Safety and skin barrier integrity are always the priority when designing any combination plan.
