HOP+ House of PLLA Promoter Volumizing Gel
HOP+ Promoter Volumizing Gel ( known as The Purple Gel ) is a lightweight, active-rich treatment gel that delivers PLLA, PDRN, a four growth factor complex, and azulene in a format versatile enough to use as a daily treatment, a conductive gel for microcurrent and EMS devices, or a calming pre-makeup hydration step.
The purple color is functional. Sodium Guaiazulene Sulfonate, derived from chamomile, gives the formula its distinctive tone while contributing meaningful anti-inflammatory and calming support. This makes the Promoter Volumizing Gel one of the most compatible products in the HOP+ line for acne-prone and reactive skin . It's a lightweight, non-comedogenic gel that delivers bio stimulatory and anti-aging actives without the heavier textures that can challenge congested skin.
Poly L lactic acid provides cumulative bio stimulatory support for improved skin structure and visible firmness over time. PDRN — polydeoxyribonucleotide derived from salmon DNA — supports tissue repair signaling and cellular renewal. The four growth factor complex (EGF, bFGF, IGF-1, TGF-β) adds renewal and resilience signaling across four distinct pathways. Hydrolyzed collagen, niacinamide, sodium hyaluronate, tremella mushroom, ceramide NP, and adenosine round out a formula that supports hydration, barrier function, and overall skin quality in a gel texture that absorbs without heaviness.
Please note: The Promoter Volumizing Gel is packaged in a flexible, easy-squeeze tube designed for optimal dispensing. Any slight creasing or indentation is a normal part of the packaging design and does not affect product quality or integrity.

What is The Purple Gel? The Promoter Volumizing Gel is commonly called The Purple Gel . The color comes from Sodium Guaiazulene Sulfonate, a chamomile-derived active with anti-inflammatory and calming properties. It is not a dye. The color is a direct result of an ingredient doing meaningful work in the formula.
Why is this a good option for acne-prone skin? The formula is lightweight, non-comedogenic, and oil-free, which makes it compatible with skin types that typically cannot tolerate heavier anti-aging textures. The azulene component actively supports a calmer, less reactive skin surface. PLLA, PDRN, and the growth factor complex deliver bio stimulatory and anti-aging support without anything in the formula that challenges congested or oily skin. It is one of the rare anti-aging actives that works in a format acne-prone clients can actually use.
What is PDRN and why does it matter? PDRN is polydeoxyribonucleotide, derived from salmon DNA. It supports tissue repair signaling and cellular renewal pathways, and is commonly used in professional aesthetic treatments and Korean clinical skincare for its regenerative properties. Its inclusion in a retail formula at this price point reflects the clinical level of this product's active profile.
How does this fit into the HOP+ routine? Use it after cleansing and before heavier moisturizers. It works well layered under the Promoter Repair Cell Moisturizer for a full firming and volumizing routine, or on its own as a lightweight finish for oilier skin types. On microcurrent days, use it as your conductive gel in place of a separate device gel.
Can I use this with a microcurrent or EMS device? Yes , this is one of the standout use cases for this formula. The water-based gel texture conducts well, and the active ingredients are delivered into the skin during device use, compounding the treatment benefit. Apply an even layer before device use and follow your device protocol.
Is the packaging supposed to look creased? Yes. The Promoter Volumizing Gel is packaged in a flexible squeeze tube designed for easy dispensing. Any creasing or slight indentation in the tube is normal and does not affect the product inside.
Poly L Lactic Acid (PLLA) A biocompatible polymer that provides cumulative bio stimulatory support for improved skin structure and visible firmness with consistent use. The foundational technology of the entire HOP+ system delivered here in a lightweight gel format.
PDRN (Sodium DNA) Polydeoxyribonucleotide derived from salmon DNA. Supports tissue repair signaling, cellular renewal, and skin resilience. A regenerative active more commonly seen in professional clinical products than in retail formulas.

Disclaimer & Patch Test
Disclaimer: Individual results may vary. Products sold at Skin Accord are formulated by their respective manufacturers to support healthy, balanced skin, but sensitivity can occur when introducing new active ingredients.
If layering skincare from multiple brands, introduce one new product at a time and monitor how your skin responds. Using several potent actives—such as exfoliants, retinoids, or acids—within the same routine may increase the likelihood of irritation.
Patch Test: For first-time use, apply a small amount to a discreet area (such as the inner arm or behind the ear) and wait 24 hours before full application. If irritation, redness, or discomfort occurs, discontinue use.
Use as directed and discontinue if redness, stinging, or discomfort occurs. Skin Accord cannot assume responsibility for reactions that result from misuse, overuse, or combining incompatible products. Please consult a qualified medical professional if you experience persistent irritation.
