What are Spicules?

Spicules are microscopic needle-like structures that form the skeletal framework of freshwater sponges.
Spicules controlled microstimulation helps improve skin (resilience, texture, and natural renewal)
Boost self-regeneration
Promotes new skin &collagen
Speeds up turnover, refining texture, and elasticity.
⇒ Various products have been developed utilizing the spicules as a drug delivery system:
(Surface coating, Internal channel loading, Impregnation into the structure)
Spicules coated with active ingredients do not maintain this bonding and are fully eluted in the products.
The majority was washed from the surface.

We made the final evolution of the spicule - “ALTUM® Needling System”
A Bonded Delivery System for Next-Generation Skincare.
The active ingredient remains stably bound and is only released upon reaction with a specific biological activator.
