Ever wondered if expensive skincare products are worth the splurge? Tailoring your skincare routine and products to your skin’s current needs is always your top priority. As your skin matures, this may include investing in luxury products.
As a Master Esthetician with over 25 years of experience, I have tested a lot of products—A LOT. As my skin matures, I use and suggest concentrated and multitasking products. One of the most diverse products I use on myself during my treatments and suggest to clients for volumizing, recovery, and rejuvenation is CaviPLLA +O2 Volumizing Multi Serum by House of PLLA.
This luxurious Korean skincare product is an investment that meets a diverse range of needs for those of us with mature or damaged skin.
Why CaviPLLA Multi Serum Is Worth the Splurge
Your first question regarding high-end skincare products may be whether you’re just paying for the brand name. With some products, the brand name is a driving factor behind the price point. For example, makeup and skincare products from couture fashion brands. Couture brands may offer elevated and effective products. However, some of their products are equal to their mid-range alternatives.
House of PLLA (formerly Sculplla) is a premium Korean skincare brand. They earned their reputation by turning to science and innovative PLLA technology to deliver targeted results. Their price point reflects the quality and concentration of their proprietary formulas.
Dissolvable PLLA
House of PLLA was on a mission to infuse PLLA into the skin without sutures, threads, or injections, and they succeeded!
Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA) is an ingredient in dissolvable surgical sutures. It’s a biostimulator. This means it stimulates collagen production as sutures dissolve. In wound healing, collagen attracts fibroblasts, cells that accelerate the healing process and create a matrix of connective tissues that provide structure and support to the wound or incision. So, PLLA accelerates healing, minimizes scarring, and restores the structure underneath the skin.
Collagen’s role in anti-aging
Collagen plays a vital role in lifting, firming, and hydrating skin. Natural collagen production slows at a rate of 1% per year starting in your mid-20s. By the time you reach your 50s, you can see and feel the loss. PLLA is one of many ways to restore some of your lost collagen.
PLLA is a key ingredient in many med spa thread lifts and fillers that market themselves as “non-surgical facelifts”. When applied topically, PLLA minimizes lines, creases, and skin laxity caused by any combination of lost fat pads, decreased collagen production, and repetitive movement. CaviPLLA’s innovative dissolvable sutures wrap around hair follicles, providing structure to lift, smooth, and volumize.
Infused in this luxury skincare formula, PLLA:
-
Softens crow’s feet
-
Smooths neck creases
-
Softens marionette lines
-
Fills fine lines above the lip
-
Volumizes nasolabial folds
-
Plumps hollowed and sunken areas
-
Lifts and firms the face and neck
-
Restores hydration and glow
-
Refines pores and improves texture
And that’s just the benefits of PLLA! Other actives support these anti-aging benefits, and more!
Backed by Scientific Research
The efficacy of House of PLLA’s premium product range is backed by quantifiable results. It took 8 years to perfect their PLLA formula, a formula I consider the top topical filler on the market. This revered brand continues to expand its ingredient and product range to tailor your skincare routine.
How you apply CaviPLLA is crucial
CaviPLLA must be applied before products that create a film, otherwise, this oxygenated serum won’t penetrate your pores or hair follicles. Two pumps are all you need to implant dissolvable sutures into your skin. I apply it first to areas where my fat pads have sunken. For me, these are my nasolabial folds, above my lip, and underneath my chin. Then I spread it out to the rest of my face and neck. Don’t apply on the eyelid or directly underneath the eye.
Let sit for about 20 seconds. This is enough time to oxygenate your skin. You’ll see white bubbles foam up, pushing the actives into the skin and hair follicles. After 20 seconds, massage the oxygen bubbles in and layer your moisturizer on top.
If You Can Only Invest in 1 High-End Product, This Is The One
What began as an effort to formulate a topical PLLA product, evolved into a powerful line of multitasking skincare products. I suggest many of House of PLLA’s products to clients to tailor their routine, but if you can only splurge on one expensive skincare product, I suggest CaviPLLA +O2 Volumizing Multi Serum.
Apply your new multi serum in the morning and evening or just in the evening. Results are cumulative. Daily use encourages a stronger matrix of connective tissue and the rejuvenating effects of increased collagen production.
When I test products, I’ll stop using them for a week to see how my skin responds, and I rapidly noticed the difference when I stopped using CaviPLLA.
Premium and Bioavailable Ingredients
The actives in CaviPLLA are premium, concentrated, and bioavailable. This means they are gentle on your skin, actives your skin recognizes, and are formulated to be effective.
Actives beyond PLLA include:
-
Caviar extract: Wondering what the “Cavi” is short for in CaviPLLA? It’s caviar extract! Caviar is a peptide and powerful anti-aging active. It promotes protein synthesis and cellular repair and protects against oxidative damage. This contributes to both a proactive and reactive approach to fine lines and wrinkles. It boosts hydration, reduces inflammation, and improves the skin’s texture and firmness.
-
Hyaluronic acid: An effective active in luxury moisturizers and serums, hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring humectant that helps your skin attract and retain moisture. HA production slows with age, negatively impacting hydration levels. Topical application smooths lines, plumps, and delivers a dewy glow.
-
Niacinamide: Also known as vitamin B3, this antioxidant supports skin health on a variety of levels. It helps fade acne scars and other hyperpigmentation, brightening and evening skin tone. Niacinamide also supports collagen and elastin production to lift, firm, and smooth skin.
-
Nelumbo nucifera seed extract: Also known as lotus seed extract, is multitasking in itself. It contains flavonoids and polyphenols that neutralize damaging free radicals and reverse cellular damage. It calms and soothes redness and inflammation and helps the skin retain hydration. Like PLLA, it helps to refine pores.
-
Tripeptide-1: A biometric tripeptide that works synergistically with PLLA to restore the skin matrix and boost collagen and elastin production. It works by increasing firmness, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles, and improving skin texture and skin tone.
How CaviPLLA Compares to Top Caviar Creams
One of the top caviar extract creams on the market today is La Prairie’s Skin Caviar Luxe Cream. Like House of PLLA, La Prairie’s cream is formulated from concentrated and premium ingredients. Efficacy is also backed by scientific research. However, the smallest size of Skin Caviar Luxe Cream is 50 ml/1.69 oz and retails for $595!
CaviPLLA’s smallest size is 30 ml/1 oz and retails for $90. In addition to price, infusing PLLA with caviar extract and the actives above makes this serum outshine comparable luxury skincare products.
Learn Which Other Expensive Skincare Products Are Worth the Splurge
As a Master Esthetician, I work with my clients to tailor their skincare routines with an effective selection of anti-aging products. This often includes a mix of mid-range and high-end products from different collections. Quality, performance, and resolving your unique skincare concerns are always my top priority.
If you have to choose just one product to splurge on, I suggest CaviPLLA. If you can splurge a bit more, I suggest pairing NeoGenesis products with CaviPLLA and other House of PLLA products.
