Vice Reversa microneedle technology may be better than collagen-boosting cream. Microneedle skincare technology has been shown to be safe and more effective than collagen-promoting face cream in addressing wrinkles, elasticity and hydration, according to research.
Vice Reversa microneedle patches for wrinkles and pimples have also been shown to deliver actives deep into the dermal layers and reduce fine lines and pimples, offering a more effective alternative to face creams and a painless home alternative to invasive procedures.
‘This innovative delivery system is a breakthrough in achieving younger- looking skin,’ said Justine Webb who, with business partner Martin Persson, have brought Vice Reversa microneedle patch technology to South Africa.
Each pair of wrinkle patches contains thousands of microneedles formed from crystallised serum, packed densely on a medical grade hydrocolloid patch. Easily applied at home, the ultra-fine needles painlessly penetrate the epidermis, then self-dissolve to deliver hydrating and firming hyaluronic acid, collagen and peptides deep in the skin. Designed to fit under the eyes, Vice Reversa wrinkle patches plump and hydrate from the first application. Used weekly, they progressively reduce the appearance of fine lines from four to six weeks for firmer, younger-looking skin.
‘It doesn’t stop there,’ said Webb. ‘The pimple patches help stop spots fast, getting to work from just two hours use.’ The powerful purifying and soothing formula of salicylic acid, totarol and green tea extract goes deep in the affected area, helping to reduce and reverse spots, even before they emerge, she added.

The technology originates from a world-leading Korean manufacturing process. ‘We are delighted to bring this exciting technology to South Africa,’ said Persson, from distributors, Stributique, and available online at www.beautybuy.co.za. ‘The patches are easy to apply, safe and painless. It’s a new, effective solution to fine lines and spots – all without leaving your home.’
