What is Ellacor?
Ellacor is a minimally invasive skin treatment that uses Micro-Coring technology to remove tiny amounts of skin and improve the appearance of wrinkles and laxity, especially in the mid to lower face. It is now also approved for treatment across the body, including loose arm skin, abdominal skin, bra fat, and wrinkles above the knees. This skin treatment is designed for patients who want noticeable improvement without surgery.
How does it work?
Ellacor uses very small hollow needles to remove micro-cores of skin in a precise pattern. This process helps smooth wrinkles and may also stimulate collagen production as the skin heals, enhancing the overall results of the skin treatment.
What areas can be treated?
Ellacor is commonly used as a facial skin treatment for the mid and lower face, including the cheeks, jawline, and chin. It may also be a good option for patients concerned about jowling, loose skin, or deeper facial wrinkles, as well as select areas on the body.
Is there downtime?
Most patients should expect some swelling, bruising, and redness for a few days after this skin treatment. In clinical trials, many patients felt comfortable returning to work or public activities in about three days.
Is Ellacor painful?
A local anesthetic is used to improve comfort during the procedure. Most patients report low pain levels, and this skin treatment is generally well tolerated. Individual experiences may vary.
How many treatments are needed?
Some patients notice improvement after one skin treatment session, but many providers recommend a series based on individual goals. In clinical trials, most patients received three treatments spaced about 30 days apart.
Who is a good candidate?
Ellacor is intended for adults with moderate to severe wrinkles in the mid and lower face and is cleared for Fitzpatrick skin types I through IV. A consultation is the best way to determine if this skin treatment is appropriate based on your skin type, goals, and medical history.
What makes Ellacor different from other skin treatments?
Unlike many skin treatments that rely on heat, Ellacor physically removes tiny cores of skin without thermal energy. This makes it a unique option for patients seeking a non-surgical approach to skin tightening and facial rejuvenation.
