HOP+ Volume Boost Spicule Eye Program

A liquid microneedling eye treatment with PDRN and PLLA for estheticians.

Professional Overview

The HOP+ Volume Boost Spicule Eye Program from House of PLLA is a two-phase liquid microneedling treatment designed specifically for the peri-orbital area. Utilizing micro-spicules, this program opens micro-channels in the skin to enhance penetration of active ingredients such as PDRN (Sodium DNA) and PLLA (Poly-L-Lactic Acid). This product is positioned as an advanced option for estheticians seeking to offer clients enhanced results beyond conventional eye creams.

Key Active Ingredients

• PDRN (Sodium DNA): Present in both the Spicule Eye Cream and Hydrogel Eye Patches, PDRN supports natural tissue repair and renewal, aiding skin recovery during both activation and recovery phases.
• PLLA (Poly-L-Lactic Acid): Known for its biocompatibility, PLLA is delivered through micro-channels to promote collagen synthesis and improve skin firmness around the eyes.
• Niacinamide: Enhances skin brightness and strengthens the skin barrier.
• Centella Asiatica and Madecassoside: These calming agents soothe the skin post-activation, reducing potential irritation and promoting a smoother appearance.

Effects / Clinical Benefits

The clinical benefits of this program include improved firmness, reduced fine lines, and enhanced skin texture around the delicate eye area. The micro-spicule technology allows for deeper penetration of PDRN and PLLA, which can stimulate collagen production and support tissue renewal. Clients may notice a visibly smoother, more hydrated appearance after treatment.

Client Suitability

This treatment is suitable for clients experiencing fine lines, early signs of skin laxity, or thinning skin around the eyes. It is ideal for Fitzpatrick skin types I-IV but should be avoided by individuals with sensitive or barrier-compromised skin, such as those with active rosacea or eczema.

Professional Application

In a professional setting, the Spicule Eye Cream should be applied first, directly to the under-eye area. Follow immediately with the Volumizing Hydrogel Eye Patch to seal in the actives. This treatment can be integrated with other collagen-stimulating protocols like microneedling but should be spaced appropriately to avoid over-stimulation. Recommend clients use this treatment once a week as part of their skincare routine.

Contraindications & Cautions

• Patch Test: Always perform a patch test prior to full application.
• Sensitive Skin: Not recommended for sensitive or reactive skin types.
• Post-Treatment Care: Avoid additional exfoliants or retinol-based products for at least 24 hours post-treatment.
