Standard microneedling activates the skin’s natural repair response to support collagen production and improve texture. VAMP™ elevates this treatment by pairing microneedling with a sterile, professional bio-revitalizing solution formulated to support hydration, elasticity, tone, and overall skin quality.
VAMP™ combines hyaluronic acid with medical-grade PDRN, 11 vitamins, 23 amino acids, and six minerals. Rather than adding facial volume or altering your features, this nutrient-rich formula works alongside microneedling to help skin appear smoother, firmer, more hydrated, and visibly refreshed.
At VIVE Med Spa, we offer microneedling with VAMP™ in Verona, WI, for patients throughout Fitchburg, Madison, Middleton, Oregon, Belleville, Mount Horeb, Sun Prairie, Cross Plains, and New Glarus. It is an ideal option for skin affected by dryness, environmental stress, uneven texture, fine lines, enlarged pores, or a dull, tired appearance.
This treatment follows the same collagen-induction process as standard microneedling, but adds VAMP™, a sterile, ready-to-use solution designed specifically for professional skin-rejuvenation treatments. As microneedling creates controlled microchannels, VAMP™ is applied to the treatment area so its skin-supporting ingredients can complement the natural renewal process.
The formula’s featured ingredient is PDRN, or polydeoxyribonucleotide, a collection of purified, low-molecular-weight DNA fragments derived from wild salmon. VAMP™ uses medical-grade PDRN purified to greater than 95%, together with hyaluronic acid, vitamins, amino acids, and minerals.
Each component serves a different purpose: hyaluronic acid supports hydration; vitamins and amino acids help revitalize the skin and improve its appearance; minerals support the skin barrier; and PDRN supports smoother, firmer, more elastic-looking skin. The result is a treatment focused on comprehensive skin quality rather than hydration alone.
Hyaluronic acid helps attract and retain moisture, making VAMP™ microneedling especially beneficial for dry, depleted skin. This can be particularly valuable during Wisconsin winters, when cold temperatures, low humidity, and indoor heating frequently compromise the skin’s moisture barrier.
Microneedling stimulates the skin’s natural collagen-remodeling response, while VAMP™ supports hydration, elasticity, and revitalization. Together, they can soften the appearance of fine lines and help skin look smoother, firmer, and more resilient.
The combined effect of microneedling and VAMP™ helps restore a healthier-looking glow. This treatment is well suited for skin that appears tired, flat, rough, or less luminous than it once did.
The collagen response produced by microneedling can improve uneven texture and the appearance of enlarged pores. VAMP™ complements this process by supporting hydration, skin tone, and overall surface quality.
Following months of sun, heat, and outdoor exposure, the skin may appear dehydrated, dull, uneven, or visibly stressed. Microneedling with VAMP™ provides a comprehensive seasonal reset focused on hydration, texture, tone, and skin renewal.
For patients who do not need additional facial volume but want to maintain hydration, firmness, elasticity, and radiance, VAMP™ offers a skin-quality treatment that can be incorporated into a personalized maintenance plan.
Your consultation includes an evaluation of your skin type, current skin health, treatment history, and primary concerns. We will determine whether microneedling with VAMP™ is appropriate and develop a treatment schedule based on your individual goals.
A topical numbing agent is applied and allowed to take effect before microneedling creates the controlled microchannels that activate your skin's repair response. VAMP™ is applied during and immediately after treatment. The appointment generally takes 45 to 60 minutes, and temporary redness, warmth, tightness, or mild swelling may occur afterward, similar to standard microneedling.
Post-treatment care focuses on protecting the skin barrier while the microchannels close and the skin begins its renewal process. You will use gentle, non-active skincare, avoid unnecessary heat and irritation, and follow the individualized instructions provided at your appointment.
We will assess your response and recommend whether a treatment series or periodic maintenance is best suited to your skin. Results develop gradually as hydration improves and collagen remodeling continues.

The choice between standard microneedling and microneedling with VAMP™ depends on what your skin needs. Standard microneedling may be sufficient when collagen induction and texture correction are the primary goals. VAMP™ may be recommended when dehydration, dullness, fine lines, enlarged pores, elasticity, or overall skin quality are also important concerns.
At VIVE, treatment recommendations are based on a clinical assessment of your skin, not on automatically adding upgrades. Patients from Verona, Fitchburg, Madison, Middleton, and surrounding Dane County communities receive clear explanations of their options and a personalized plan built around their skin, goals, and comfort with downtime.
Both treatments create controlled microchannels to stimulate the skin’s natural collagen-remodeling response. VAMP™ adds a sterile bio-revitalizing solution to further support hydration, elasticity, tone, texture, and radiance.
No. Although VAMP™ contains hyaluronic acid, it is not a volumizing dermal filler and is not intended to reshape facial features. It is a topical, sterile bio-revitalizing solution used with professional skin treatments to improve overall skin quality.
No. A traditional “vampire facial” uses platelet-rich plasma obtained from the patient’s own blood. VAMP™ requires no blood draw and instead uses a prepared formula applied during treatment.
PDRN stands for polydeoxyribonucleotide. It consists of purified, low-molecular-weight DNA fragments derived from wild salmon. VAMP™ contains high-purity, medical-grade PDRN formulated to support skin rejuvenation and improve the appearance of elasticity and firmness.
Microneedling can be performed safely across many skin types, but treatment must be individualized. Your medical history, active skin conditions, allergy history, medications, and current skin health will be reviewed before proceeding.
Skin may appear more hydrated and radiant as the initial redness settles. Improvements in texture, tone, firmness, and fine lines develop more gradually as the skin completes its renewal and collagen-remodeling processes. Results and recovery time vary by individual.
Some patients notice improvement after one session, while a series may be recommended for more significant or cumulative results. Your treatment frequency will be based on your skin condition, response, and long-term goals.
Yes, when medically appropriate. Please let us know before your appointment so we can confirm your candidacy and reserve the product for your treatment.
At VIVE Med Spa in Verona, WI, VAMP™ takes microneedling beyond collagen induction, supporting hydration, elasticity, texture, tone, and radiance without adding facial volume.
