Dermathod O2 Tox Peel Bubble Spicule Serum

• Hydrolyzed Sponge (Spicules) — 30,000 ppm — Micro-fine spicule needles derived from marine sponge that penetrate the skin's surface and stimulate a controlled wound-healing response — driving cellular turnover, collagen stimulation, and skin renewal for up to 72 hours after application
• Perfluorocarbon Oxygen Complex — The oxygenating agents behind the bubble activation effect — enhancing penetration of actives and delivering oxygen to skin cells throughout the treatment
• Biomimetic Peptide Complex — Growth factor-adjacent peptides that support cellular regeneration, collagen synthesis, and tissue repair during the 72-hour renewal window
• Full Centella Bioactive Complex — Comprehensive calming and barrier repair support throughout the resurfacing process
• Ceramide NP — Reinforces barrier integrity during active skin renewal — preventing the dehydration and sensitivity that spicule treatments can produce without adequate barrier support
• Niacinamide — Brightens, evens tone, and reduces PIH visibility alongside the spicule renewal cycle
• Adenosine — Supports cellular regeneration and fine line smoothing throughout the treatment window
• Sodium Hyaluronate — Maintains hydration throughout the renewal process

Apply 4–5 pumps to clean, dry skin.
Allow the bubbling action to activate, then gently pat into the skin.
Do not rinse. Follow with moisturizer.

You may feel spicules working for up to 72 hours after application. Daily SPF is imperative following treatment.

Mystic Tip: Not just for the face—this treatment is especially effective for Keratosis Pilaris when used on the body.

When to Use:

• Once weekly
• Evening use recommended
• Before moisturizer
• Ideal for face or body (especially KP-prone areas)

• What are spicules and how do they resurface skin without peeling?
  Spicules are micro-fine needle-like structures derived from marine sponge — when applied to the skin they physically penetrate the surface layer and stimulate a controlled micro-injury response that triggers cellular turnover, collagen production, and tissue repair from the inside out. Unlike chemical exfoliants that dissolve surface bonds, spicules drive renewal beneath the surface — which is why results appear over the following 72 hours rather than immediately, and why there is no traditional peeling or flaking associated with the treatment. The skin renews itself — the spicules simply give it the signal to start.
• Why does the formula bubble on application?
  The oxygenating bubble effect is produced by the perfluorocarbon complex — Methyl Perfluoroisobutyl Ether and Methyl Perfluorobutyl Ether — which releases oxygen on contact with the skin. This serves two functions: it enhances the penetration of the spicule and peptide complex into the skin, and it delivers oxygen directly to skin cells to energize and awaken the complexion at the start of the 72-hour renewal cycle.
• Is this suitable for sensitive skin?
  This is a high-performance resurfacing treatment best suited for experienced skincare users on stable, non-compromised skin. Those with active sensitivity, rosacea, or a currently disrupted barrier should stabilize the skin with a barrier-first routine before introducing this treatment. A patch test on the arm 24 hours before first full-face use is strongly recommended for all users.
• Why is daily SPF non-negotiable with this treatment?
  Spicule resurfacing accelerates cellular turnover — which produces fresher, more radiant skin but also temporarily increases UV sensitivity as newer skin cells reach the surface. Without daily SPF protection, UV exposure during the 72-hour renewal window can trigger PIH and reverse the brightening and clarity results the treatment is working to achieve. SPF is not optional — it is part of the treatment protocol.
• Can I use this on my body?
  Yes — the formula is face and body safe. It is particularly effective on areas of rough texture, KP, uneven tone, and body acne scarring. Apply the same weekly protocol to body areas and follow with SPF on any exposed skin.
