How to Prevent Sun Damage & Reverse Premature Aging with SQT Bio-Microneedling
At That Skin Clinic in Mooloolaba, we see firsthand the toll our beautiful Australian sun can take on your skin. While a little Vitamin D can lift your spirits, too much UV exposure can seriously age your skin and fast. But don’t worry, we’re here to help you protect, repair, and restore.
Let’s talk about how you can shield your skin from further damage and take control of premature aging with one of our favourite advanced treatments: SQT Bio-Microneedling.
Sun Protection is Non-Negotiable
That golden glow might look good in the moment, but over time, unprotected sun exposure leads to:
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Sun spots and pigmentation
• Uneven skin tone
• Loss of skin elasticity
In fact, up to 90% of visible skin aging is caused by the sun. If you’re serious about preserving your skin health (and your glow), prevention is key.
How to Protect Your Skin Daily
1. Avoid Direct Sun Exposure
Try to stay out of the sun between 10am–4pm when UV levels peak. Wide-brimmed hats, sunglasses, and lightweight clothing offer great extra protection.
2. Sunscreen Every. Single. Day.
Rain or shine, SPF is essential. A broad-spectrum SPF 30+ is your first line of defense. Make it part of your morning ritual, just like brushing your teeth.
3. Use Zinc-Based Sunscreens
These are not only ideal for sensitive skin, but they also offer superior broad-spectrum protection. Zinc oxide acts like a mirror, bouncing harmful rays away from your skin. It’s clean, effective, and trusted by skin professionals worldwide.

SQT Bio-Microneedling: Our Go-To for Repair & Rejuvenation
Unlike traditional needling, SQT Bio-Microneedling uses a unique spongilla powder derived from freshwater sponges. These microscopic needles stimulate skin from within without the trauma or downtime of conventional methods.
What It Does:
Stimulates Collagen Production
UV damage breaks down collagen, which causes sagging and wrinkles. SQT helps rebuild your skin’s support structure, restoring firmness and elasticity.
Fades Pigmentation & Sun Spots
Uneven skin tone? SQT helps regulate melanin production, gently fading dark spots caused by sun exposure.
Boosts Skin Brightness & Texture
It revs up your cell turnover, revealing fresh, glowing skin that looks and feels healthier.
Prevents Premature Aging
By deeply conditioning the skin and stimulating regeneration, you’re not only repairing, you’re protecting your skin’s future.
It’s Never Too Late to Start
Whether you want to safeguard your skin or undo years of sun exposure, SQT Bio-Microneedling is a powerful tool in your skin health arsenal. Combined with consistent at-home sun protection and our professional guidance, this treatment can truly transform your skin.
