If you’re like me, you want to restore facial volume and firmness—without fillers. You also want products that boost the results of your favorite skincare devices like ultrasound, microcurrent, or LED.
That’s exactly why I love House of PLLA. This innovative Korean skincare line helps your skin look plumper, smoother, and more radiant — and their homecare products work beautifully between facial treatments to keep that youthful glow going strong.
Restoring Facial Volume With Natural Results
The pain associated with injections isn’t the top reason my clients don’t want to use dermal fillers. Most are concerned that filler results won’t look natural. Yes, they want anti-aging benefits, but they still want to look like themselves. They also crave long-lasting results. This leaves them turning to a professional to deliver the benefits of fillers without an injectable.
Like my clients, you’re sure to have a preferred range of volumizing skincare techniques and devices that deliver natural results. I pair House of PLLA topicals with esthetic treatments to elevate facials on every level.
If you’ve tested PLLA products in the past with dismal results, this line is different. In fact, I haven’t found a PLLA topical that comes close!
Biocompatible and Biostimulating PLLA
Poly-L-Lactic Acid (PLLA) is a key ingredient in dissolvable sutures, surgical mesh, and dissolvable stents. It’s a biocompatible biostimulator that the healthcare industry has turned to for over 30 years.
-
Biocompatible means that the skin and body recognize and accept PLLA.
-
Biostimulating means that it promotes collagen and elastin production to support the body’s natural restoration process.
Understanding the potential for anti-aging, House of PLLA spent 8 years perfecting its topical facial filling technology. Once perfected, they released a range of premium skincare products with concentrated actives. This includes products I use to tailor client facials and products designed for different steps in at-home routines. Regardless of which product you apply, it implants PLLA and delivers multitasking anti-aging benefits.
Not All PLLA Is Equal
There are different “grades” of PLLA for different industries. This includes food-grade, industrial-grade, and medical-grade PLLA. House of PLLA’s products are medical-grade. Other PLLA skincare topicals are formulated with lower grades that don’t last long enough to deliver meaningful skincare benefits. Or they’re formulated with medical-grade PLLA, but they lack a delivery system that implants it in the skin.
PLLA is an active component in Sculptra dermal fillers and PLLA thread lifts. These treatments are medical-grade and effective, but many of my clients prefer injection-free volumizing and anti-aging options. There are many topical fillers on the market, but House of PLLA’s topicals are the only products I’ve found that rival med spa threads and injections. And there’s no risk of plumping and contouring the face in a way that isn’t natural.
Long-Lasting PLLA
House of PLLA’s at-home products are truly next-level skincare. Each formula is designed to penetrate deeply — all the way to the hair follicles — where collagen production begins.
Once absorbed, the PLLA helps create a volumizing matrix within the skin, supporting firmness and elasticity over time. And when you use these products with your favorite skincare device, they help enhance and extend your results for a lifted, smoother look that lasts.

How I Use House of PLLA
I always begin with a facial massage to feel what’s going on underneath the skin. Then I manually contour and release stuck fascia. Next, I apply high-performance products and use one or more skincare devices to address my client’s concerns. When treating mature skin, these are my top PLLA picks.
Promoter Volumizing Gel
Promoter Volumizing Gel is one of my go-to conductive gels. I apply it underneath ultrasound, microcurrent therapy, and multi-modality treatments for a smooth and easy glide. It revitalizes the skin by implanting PLLA and high-performing actives to restore volume loss.
-
Chamomile and Biocion-N: Soothes inflammation, minimizes adult acne, and accelerates healing.
-
PLLA Stimulates collagen production, reducing wrinkles and enhancing facial contours.
-
4GF (EGF, FGF, IGF, TGF): Growth factors that rejuvenate skin by promoting cell growth and collagen synthesis.
-
PDRN (polydeoxyribonucleotide): Derived from salmon DNA, PDRN accelerates wound healing and enhances skin metabolism.
Promotor Volume Boost Moisturizer
Promoter Volume Boost Moisturizer is a silky and luxurious formula you can apply as the finishing layer of your facial. It’s ideal for treating mature and dry skin, providing deep hydration after the first application. It’s multi-tasking, and the perfect finishing product (besides SPF- of course!)
-
PLLA: Stimulates collagen production, reducing wrinkles and sunken areas.
-
PGA of plant collagen: Enhances elasticity and hydration.
-
4GF (EGF, FGF, IGF, TGF): Growth factors that rejuvenate skin by promoting cell growth and collagen synthesis.
-
Snail mucus filtrate: Fights aging, promotes cell renewal, and repairs skin.
Not Just For Mature Skin
Most of my PLLA clients are over the age of 40, but not all. PLLA provides rapid plumping and firming regardless of the cause of sagging, sinking, and hollowing. It’s ideal for younger clients with naturally thin skin and clients displaying premature signs of aging. This includes the rise in clients of all ages looking to rejuvenate tech neck and Ozempic face.
Accelerate the Treatment of Ozempic Face
Many clients taking GLP-1 injections are dealing with the side effect of “Ozempic face”. When we lose weight rapidly, the body doesn’t have enough time for elastin to tighten back up. Skin becomes lax, and the contours of the face change in ways that are aging. This leaves our clients with a mix of emotions. Excited for their weight loss, but self-conscious about their sagging skin. Especially on their face, which is always front and center.
Ozempic face often includes:
-
Skin laxity
-
Sunken cheeks
-
Hollowed eyes
Since the skin’s matrix layer gets stronger with consistent application, combining PLLA products accelerates plumping and restoration of some facial volume loss.
Smoothing Tech Neck
It used to be that crow’s feet and laugh lines were amongst the first visible signs of aging, but with heads-down electronics use, I have clients in their 30s struggling with neck bands and neck creases. Without early treatment, they’ll have ultra-deep creases by the time they’re in their 40s.
Pairing PLLA with your preferred skin-tightening treatments promotes collagen and elastin production for a filler-free method of smoothing neck creases. As you know, smoothing the neck takes time. So, consistency, at-home massage, and homecare topicals should compliment your routine.
Transform How You Restore Facial Volume Loss Without Fillers
As an esthetician, I must never stop learning and growing. This includes keeping my fingers on the pulse of innovative products and devices with proven efficacy. House of PLLA’s product line has transformed both my facials and my personal skincare routine!
