How the treatment works
At Four J Aesthetics the SQT Biomicroneedling Resurfacing treatment uses controlled micro-injury plus a bio-peel to stimulate the skin's natural renewal. During a careful consultation your esthetician customizes intensity to your skin type, balancing resurfacing and regeneration. The method focuses on improving texture and surface quality by prompting repair pathways rather than relying on abrasive removal.
Expect a session that lasts 60 MINUTES where hygiene, comfort, and gradual progression guide the treatment. Your esthetician monitors skin response throughout and adapts the approach to minimize irritation. Many clients describe feeling mild pressure or warmth rather than pain, and receive tailored aftercare instructions so results are supported at home without unnecessary risk.
Aftercare and recovery
After treatment you can expect immediate surface brightness and a noticeable glow, as many clients in Monterey report. Temporary redness, sensitivity, or flaking are possible and should be managed with gentle cleansers and moisturizers. Follow-up guidance from your esthetician will be personalized, helping you maintain comfort while your skin settles and builds resilience.
Sun protection is an essential part of recovery in our coastal climate; morning fog and afternoons can still deliver UV exposure. Your esthetician will advise avoiding tanning and aggressive exfoliation until skin has recovered. Many local clients schedule these treatments in January, February, October, or November to align with New Year goals or autumn skin recovery.
