The dogma is defined in Ineffabilis Deus, 1854,” as follows:

The most Blessed Virgin Mary was, from the first moments of her conception, by a singular grace and privilege of almighty God and by virtue of the merits of Jesus Christ, Savior of the Human race, preserved immune from all stain of Original Sin. “

How do you get from that to your statement?

If she was sinless, she didn’t need a savior. Only sinners need a savior.

By her calling God her savior, it was her tacit admission of her sinfulness.
