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. VAMP™ is 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 revitalizing formula is packed with the nutrients your skin needs to improve tone, tighten pores, and restore a healthy glow.
Microneedling creates controlled micro-channels in the skin. 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.
At PHI, we use the SkinPen, the first microneedling device to be FDA-cleared. It is validated to safely place approximately 3 million micro-channels per 30-minute treatment, ensuring optimal delivery of the VAMP™ solution.
What can VAMP™ microneedling 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

This treatment may not be suitable for individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding, undergoing immunosuppressive therapy, have an active infection in the treatment area, have blood disorders, or have taken medication with isotretinoin (such as Accutane) in the past 6 months.
Frequently asked questions
Does VAMP™ microneedling work?
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.
What is microneedling and VAMP™?
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.
Is VAMP™ better than PRP?
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.
How much does microneedling with VAMP™ cost?
The cost varies depending on your specific treatment plan and the number of sessions required to achieve optimal results. We will provide a precise, transparent quote tailored to your aesthetic goals during your personalized consultation.
Is there downtime?
Following a VAMP™ with microneedling treatment, you may experience dryness, redness, tenderness, and/or itchiness similar to a mild sunburn for 24 to 72 hours. Some patients may experience mild discomfort and peeling or flaking for 1 to 7 days.
How many treatments are needed?
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.
