VAMP™ Microneedling for Skin Rejuvenation
Your skin deserves nourishment and support, from the inside out! Microneedling with VAMP™ (Vitamins, Amino acids, Minerals, and PDRN salmon DNA) is an advanced, in-clinic regenerative aesthetic treatment designed to deliver visible results. If you're wondering why VAMP™ is worth the hype, it comes down to the powerful blend of ingredients working at a cellular level to renew your skin.
What is VAMP™ Microneedling?
To understand what a VAMP™ procedure is, you have to look at how two powerful components work together.
- The VAMP™ Solution: A topical, sterile bio-revitalizing solution enriched with vitamins, amino acids, minerals, and Polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN)—a powerful extract derived from salmon DNA that safely stimulates skin renewal. This formula is packed with the nutrients your skin needs to improve tone, tighten pores, and restore a healthy glow.
- SkinPen Microneedling: At PHI, we use the SkinPen, the first microneedling device to be FDA-cleared. It creates controlled micro-channels in the skin, placing approximately 3 million micro-channels per 30-minute treatment.
These micro-openings act as direct pathways, allowing the VAMP™ formula to penetrate deep into the tissue, multiplying new skin cells to replace damaged ones.
What can VAMP™ address?
Because PDRN is clinically proven to stimulate collagen production and soft tissue regeneration, microneedling with VAMP™ is often used as part of a comprehensive plan to address a variety of concerns:
| Aesthetic Concern | Target Benefit |
|---|---|
| Hyperpigmentation | Improves the appearance of dark spots and evens skin tone. |
| Fine lines and wrinkles | Softens visible signs of aging by boosting collagen. |
| Skin texture and pores | Refines enlarged pores and smooths uneven texture. |
| Skin tonicity & hydration | Restores strength, elasticity, and overall radiance. |
| Acne and surgical scars | Utilizes wound-healing properties to smooth scarring. |
Before & After
What to Expect: Your Journey With Us
We combine advanced regenerative techniques with personalized care to ensure your skin receives exactly what it needs.
Your Skin Assessment
We begin by evaluating your skin tone, texture, and aesthetic goals to determine if VAMP™ microneedling is the right solution for you.
The Treatment
Using the FDA-cleared SkinPen, we create millions of micro-channels in the skin. The sterile VAMP™ solution is applied topically, penetrating deeply to nourish the tissue at a cellular level.
Immediate Downtime
Following the procedure, you may experience dryness, redness, tenderness, and/or itchiness similar to a mild sunburn for 24 to 72 hours. Some patients experience peeling or flaking for 1 to 7 days as the skin renews itself.
The Renewal Process
Skin rejuvenation is a process. While protocols vary, a series of 3 treatments spaced 30 days apart is often recommended to achieve optimal collagen stimulation and cellular regeneration.
Candidacy & Care
Who is a good candidate?
Generally, patients should be 22+ years old and in good overall health. Suitability for VAMP™ with microneedling is determined following a comprehensive consultation and medical history review to ensure you feel informed and confident in your personalized care plan.
When to Wait
To ensure your safety, this treatment may not be suitable if you currently meet any of the following conditions:
- Are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Are undergoing immunosuppressive therapy or have a blood disorder.
- Have an active infection in the treatment area.
- Have taken medication with isotretinoin (such as Accutane) in the past 6 months.
Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely—this is why VAMP™ is worth the hype! VAMP’s™ revitalizing formula nourishes your skin at a cellular level. Because PDRN is clinically proven to stimulate your body’s natural repair system, boosting collagen and elastin production, it provides a comprehensive reset for healthier, visibly rejuvenated skin.
Standard microneedling uses fine needles to create micro-openings that multiply new skin cells to replace damaged ones. VAMP™ microneedling takes this procedure a step further. During the treatment, a sterile VAMP™ solution is applied topically. The micro-channels allow the VAMP™ formula to penetrate deep into the skin, advancing your results and significantly enhancing overall skin texture and tone.
VAMP™ and PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) are both exceptional regenerative treatments, but they work differently. PRP uses growth factors isolated directly from your own blood, which requires a blood draw during your appointment. VAMP™ uses a pre-formulated, sterile extract of PDRN (salmon DNA) alongside specific vitamins and minerals. Neither is universally "better"—they simply offer different approaches to skin renewal.
Skin rejuvenation is a process. While protocols vary, a series of 3 treatments spaced 30 days apart is often recommended to achieve optimal outcomes. Your clinician will outline a personalized schedule just for you during your assessment.
