Microneedling Treatment or Collagen Induction Therapy
Microneedling (also known as Collagen Induction Therapy or CIT) is an innovative aesthetic treatment for removing fine lines, acne scars and for overall improvement of the skin’s appearance. During the minimally invasive procedure, tiny needles are used to cause micro-injuries that encourage the natural production of collagen and elastin. Spa Stinny proprietary serums and recovery products are applied and absorbed into the skin during the treatment to promote the production of rejuvenated cells for a revitalized you. Spa Stinny is a leader in cosmetic aesthetics, regenerative and restorative therapies. You can be assured that your skin wellness and care are our top priorities.
Base Microneedling with HA
Our Base Microneedling is also known as Collagen Induction Therapy. It uses the body's natural response to controlled dermal injury. An automated pen is used to create micro-perforations in the upper dermal layer. This therapy triggers a natural skin repair mechanism to create new collagen and elastin, significantly improving the texture and tone of skin.
Additionally, this treatment improves the skin's ability to absorb topical preparations such as hyaluronic acid, which moisturizes skin. The results include more firm and elastic skin, pores with a smaller appearance, notable reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, and a more overall uniform complexion.
Treatment Benefits
Softens wrinkles and fine lines, collagen alignment and formation, improves surgical, traumatic, and acne scars, reduces unwanted pigment, improves pore size and skin texture, improves the appearance of stretch marks, improves effectiveness and penetration of active ingredients in topical preparations.
Microneedling with AmnioGlide Placental Serum
Our Microneedling AmnioGlide is usually performed in a series of 3-6 Collagen Induction Therapy treatments and uses the highest quality of pharmaceutical grade Hyaluronic Acid and our medical grade AmnioGlide Serum. This serum contains over 120 different growth factors and cytokines that initiate cellular regeneration. The AmnioGlide Serum is kept frozen until the exact time of use to maintain the highest level of activity. Combining this magic serum with microneedling will drastically increase the results, while drastically decreasing the downtime!
What is Amniotic Membrane?
Amniotic membrane is the tissue that protects a developing baby in the womb. It provides a barrier between the mother and baby that grows as the baby grows. The membrane contains many nutritive components called "growth factors" that support development of soft tissue.
How Do Growth Factors Promote Healing?
The 50+ human growth factors and other cellular chemicals that are found in amniotic tissue are nature's way of signaling new cells to surround an injury, to replicate and to produce healthy, new cells. Also, they regulate existing, healthy cells to remodel and create powerful, natural agents that advance the overall quality of healing.
Amniotic Membrane Safety
Amniotic membrane is donated by healthy, consenting mothers undergoing scheduled deliveries by Caesarean section. The amniotic membrane is typically discarded as medical waste after childbirth. The recovery of the amniotic membrane does not affect the baby, mother, nor the delivery; therefore, the donation process does not share ethical concerns associated with embryonic tissue. Both the mother and fetal tissue are tested for infectious disease, similar to the testing done for blood donations. All steps to clean and preserve the tissue are validated and are in compliance with FDA and AATB guidelines.
Microneedling with Radio Frequency
Microneedling with Radio Frequency is FDA-cleared for your safety. This minimally-invasive treatment stimulates the natural production of collagen and is shown to be effective in alleviating facial wrinkles, fine lines, and tightening and toning the face and neck. Using bi-polar RF energy and minimally invasive microneedles, the treatment drives heat deep within the skin layers. Heat stimulates and remodels collagen and prompts the elastin cells to regenerate. Microneedling with RF requires little to no downtime and results in a skin surface that is firmer, smoother, and more even.

What does it feel like?There is no discomfort during the microneedling treatment because we use the highest quality, pharmaceutical grade numbing cream. One of the great things about coming into Spa Stinny for a microneedling treatment is the antioxidants and growth factor serums we have available. Remember, the treatment uses small needles to create micro-channels. Since the needles make the skin more permeable, the aesthetician works these antioxidants and growth factors deep into the skin. This allows for increased collagen production and decreased downtime.
-
How long does the treatment take?A single treatment takes about 30 minutes but you will be scheduled for 1 hour. The first 15 minutes will be skin prep and numbing.
-
What is the downtime?Yes! Users can add video from YouTube or Vimeo with ease: The inflammatory effect of the skin is extremely short and fades significantly within hours from redness to pinkish that may last for 12 to 48 hours. Redness or sensitivity my possibly be present and last up to a few days after your first treatment. Redness is typically gone in 48 hours. Makeup may be applied the morning after your treatment. For even quicker recovery, don’t forget your custom “Recovery Kit” to significantly decrease downtime.

Microneedling is a sought after Hollywood treatment for a variety of skincare problems including improving the overall appearance of skin.
