CELLSTORY: Liquid Microneedling


Available at Gymno


What is Cellstory Liquid Microneedling Treatment? 


Cellstory is a facial rejuvenation treatment that utilizes Microspear — a technology that uses spicules derived from freshwater- grown sponges to enhance ingredient absorption. These spicules undergo a 13- step purification process before being coated with growth factors, plant stem cells, amino acids and botanical calming extracts. When applied to the skin, these ingredients penetrate deep into the epidermis, stimulating the production of new, healthy skin. This process helps to brighten the complexion, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and restore a youthful, bouncy glow.


Cellstory Liquid Microneedling vs Traditional Microneedling


While traditional microneedling uses tiny sterile needles to create controlled micro-injuries to the skin, Cellstory takes a different approach. Traditional microneedling stimulates collagen production and skin healing, but it requires numbing and typically involves some downtime. In contrast, Cellstory utilizes the patented Microspear technology which features 50,000 spicules to stimulate cellular turnover and promote skin rejuvenation with minimal discomfort and no downtime.



Who is Cellstory for?


Cellstory is suitable for all skin types, including those with acne. If you’re looking to:


  • Reduce the appearance of fine lines, especially around the forehead and eyes
  • Even out your complexion
  • Clear acne and acne scars
  • Achieve youthful, radiant and bouncy skin


Then Cellstory might be the perfect treatment for you.



What to Expect


Before your Cellstory treatment, it is important to avoid certain procedures to ensure the best results. Refrain from Botox and fillers for at least 14 days, and avoid lasers, chemical peels, microneedling and mesotherapy for 7 days. 

During the treatment, you may experience a prickling or tingling sensation, which may feel like tiny shards of glass lightly scratching the surface of your skin. This is completely normal and the sensation will persist for up to 72 hours post-treatment. Don’t worry- these Microspears will naturally shed as your skin renews itself.

After your treatment, it is essential to follow a few guidelines for optimal recovery.

 For the next 72 hours, avoid:


  • Retinols
  • Exfoliants (physical or chemical)
  • Oil based products
  • Heavy sweating (e.g., saunas, heavy exercise)
  • Sun exposure


Additionally, for one week after your treatment, you’ll need to avoid chemical peels or lasers.


For Best Results
For optimal results, we recommend undergoing one Cellstory treatment per week for 4 weeks. However, many clients begin to notice visible improvements after just one session. After the initial 4 treatments, you can continue with additional sessions

How to build a simple skincare routine that works.

We're approaching "peel season" -- the cooler months of fall and winter, when conditions are optimal for chemical peels. With less intense sun exposure and drier weather, it's the perfect time to rejuvenate your skin. Let's break down what chemical peels are, their benefits, and why now is the best season for them. What Are Chemical Peels? Chemical peels are professional treatments that use acidic solutions to exfoliate the skin and remove excess buildup of dead skin cells from its surface layers. Peels come in varying strengths: Light peels -- Work on the epidermis (outer layer) and are commonly performed in spas and skin clinics. Medium and deep peels -- Penetrate deeper into the skin, up to the dermis and are typically done in dermatologist offices, medical spas, or advanced skin clinics. Regardless of strength, chemical peels resurface dead skin cells and support the skin's natural cell renewal factor (CRF), helping to maintain long-term skin health. Benefits of Chemical Peels When performed by a professional and paired with a good at-home skincare regimen, chemical peels deliver powerful results, including: More even skin tone Smoother texture and softened fine lines and wrinkles Enhanced product absorption Reduced acne, clogged pores, and hyperpigmentation Improved hydration and cell renewal Boosted collagen production Brighter, more radiant skin Who Should Get a Chemical Peel? Chemical peels are a great option for anyone seeking smoother, more luminous skin. However, a professional skin analysis is essential before treatment. Ideal candidates should also have: A healthy skin barrier Consistent daily sunscreen use Contraindications to keep in mind: Recent surgeries, laser resurfacing chemical peels or dermabrasion Recent Botox or filler injections Active use of retinoids (must stop 3-7 days before a peel) Certain ingredient allergies Pregnancy (avoid salicylic acid and retinol, consult a physician) Herpes simplex (risk of triggering a flare-up) Strong hyperpigmentation tendencies with deeper peels Inflamed skin, sunburn, open sores, or active irritation Why Fall and Winter Are the Best Seasons for Peels Cooler months are ideal for chemical peels because your skin is less exposed to direct sun and heat, reducing the risk of post-treatment hyperpigmentation. Additional seasonal benefits include: Repairing summer sun damage Removing dry, dead skin caused by colder temperatures Allowing your skin to heal and rejuvenate with less environmental stress Conclusion Chemical peels are a safe and effective way to refresh your skin, boost radiance, and address common concerns like fine lines, acne, and uneven complexion. Fall and winter provide the perfect window for these treatments, allowing you to maximize results while minimizing risks. At Gymno , we offer customized chemical peels tailored to your skin type and goals. We ensure your skin is properly assessed and prepped, so you achieve the healthiest, most radiant results possible.
