The Texture Reset

Medical Microneedling(eDermaStamp)

Erase Acne Scars & Pores. No Filter Needed.

If you're tired of rough texture or reminders of old acne, this is your solution. We use medical-grade German technology (not cheap rollers) to naturally force your skin to rebuild itself smoother, tighter, and stronger.

Why You Need It

Collagen Kickstart

Think of this as aerating the lawn, but for your face. We create tiny channels that wake up your lazy collagen factories.

By creating controlled micro-channels, we trick your body into 'repair mode'. It rushes to heal these tiny spots by laying down fresh, smooth collagen. The result? Old acne scars fill in, pores tighten up, and fine lines soften—all without heat or chemicals.

Scar Eraser

The most effective non-laser way to smooth out pitted acne scars.

Pore Shrinker

Tightens the skin structure around pores so they look nearly invisible.

Product Super-Highway

Those expensive serums? They usually sit on top. This lets them penetrate 3000% deeper.

Collagen Kickstart
The Tools

Medical Grade Only

We don’t use 'rollers' that tear the skin. We use the eDermaStamp® by Dermaroller®—Health Canada licensed, German-engineered precision.

Vertical Precision

Needles stamp vertically to preserve skin integrity, unlike rollers that create drag and tearing.

Custom Depths

We adjust depth (0.5mm to 2.5mm) in real-time: deep for cheeks/scars, shallow for forehead/eyes.

Sterile Safety

Single-use sterile cartridges for every client. Hygiene is our obsession.

Optional PRP

Upgrade to the 'Vampire Facial' by using your own plasma to speed up healing by 50%.

FAQ

Common Questions

Does it actually hurt?+

Honestly? Not really. The numbing cream is very strong. Forehead is a bit spicy (bony), but cheeks are easy.

How long is recovery?+

Social downtime is about 24-48 hours. Most people treat on Friday, hide Saturday, and are fine by Sunday.

Vampire Facial vs. Regular?+

Regular uses Hyaluronic Acid for slip. Vampire uses your own PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma). PRP heals 50% faster and boosts collagen significantly more.

Can I wear makeup?+

Not for 24 hours. Your channels are open! Don't clog them. Mineral makeup is okay the next day.

Acne vs. Acne Scars?+

This is for SCARS (dents). If you have active red pimples, we need to clear those first (Microneedling spreads bacteria).

Better than Laser?+

For depth and texture, often yes. It's also safer for darker skin tones than some aggressive lasers.
