Ellacor Non-Surgical Skin Tightening

Ellacor-Non Sugical Facelift in Greensboro & Charlotte, NC

THE LATEST TREATMENT TO LIFT AND REMOVE EXCESS SKIN WITHOUT SURGERY

Ellacor with Micro-Coring Technology is the first and only device of its kind that removes skin on the microscale for a 90% improvement in the appearance of wrinkles. Ellacor provides natural-looking results with a quick procedure and minimal downtime. Over 86% of patients are satisfied with their ellacor results! Microneedling uses small needles to injure the tissue, but skin is not removed during this procedure – the tissue is temporarily displaced. Ellacor is the first device to actually remove skin on the microscale.

Ellacor for the Body

Besides being excellent for facial rejuvenation, Ellacor can also provide transformative results elsewhere. This innovative technology provides a minimally invasive alternative to more extensive surgical procedures involving sutures and incisions. Here’s how Ellacor can benefit different parts of your body.

Abdomen

Ellacor can tighten and smooth loose skin on your abdomen after weight loss or pregnancy. Micro-coring removes excess skin and stimulates collagen production, resulting in a firmer, more toned appearance.

Arms

Ellacor can effectively target “bat wings” on your upper arms, giving them a youthful and sculpted look.

Thighs

Ellacor offers a solution to skin laxity on the inner and outer thighs, improving texture and firmness.

Knees

Wrinkled or sagging skin around the knees can be challenging, making you self-conscious about wearing shorts and skirts. Ellacor’s micro-coring technology can target this delicate area.

What Is Ellacor and It's Benefits?

Ellacor uses hollow needles to remove micro-cores of skin, resulting in an improved appearance of moderate and severe wrinkles in the mid to lower face without evidence of scarring.

The benefits of Ellacor includes:

  • In-office procedure performed under local anesthesia
  • Visible, natural-looking results
  • Diminishes the appearance of wrinkles by 90%
  • Precisely removes excess skin from targeted areas
  • Safe and quick procedure with minimal downtime

What to Expect During Ellacor Non-Surgical Facelift Treatment in Greensboro & Charlotte

On the day of your procedure, you will receive a local anesthetic to the treated area to help you stay comfortable during the procedure. Once your skin is numb, your provider will strategically place the ellacor device to your skin to create micro-cores in a precise grid pattern. Excess skin will be removed through hollow needles, but the micro-cores are so tiny that they will begin to heal almost immediately. All of our models have healed in 5 days and could wear makeup or tinted moisturizer by day four. 1-3 treatments are recommended.

Who Is an Ideal Candidate For Ellacor Non-Surgical Facelift?​

An Ellacor Mirco-Coring procedure is a great option for adults who have visible signs of facial aging and are seeking an improvement in skin laxity. Ellacor is approved for Fitzpatrick skin types I-IV, which means it may not be a good option for patients with darker skin tones. Ellacor should not be performed on people who have medical conditions that inhibit proper wound healing and women who are pregnant.

Ellacor Non-Surgical Facelift FAQS

Ellacor micro-coring is an advanced, non-surgical skin rejuvenation procedure that uses a specialized device to remove tiny columns of skin tissue without the use of heat or lasers. This process stimulates the skin’s natural healing response, promoting tighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin with minimal downtime.

The benefits of Ellacor micro-coring include noticeable skin tightening, reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, and overall improved skin texture. The results are long-lasting, typically maintained for 3-5 years, depending on the individual’s skin type, age, and lifestyle. Unlike traditional treatments, Ellacor does not rely on heat, so the skin’s natural structure remains intact, offering a more natural-looking result.

Ellacor is ideal for individuals who have mild to moderate skin laxity, fine lines, and wrinkles but are not ready for a surgical facelift. It is best suited for patients who are in good health, have realistic expectations, and desire a minimally invasive procedure to improve skin appearance. However, it is not recommended for individuals with certain skin conditions or those who have an excessive amount of loose skin.

Currently, Ellacor micro-coring is primarily used on the face, particularly the mid-to-lower face, where skin laxity and wrinkles are more prevalent. It is most commonly performed around the cheeks, jawline, and under the chin to improve skin tightness and texture.

The main difference between Ellacor and micro-needling is in their approach and effectiveness. Ellacor physically removes micro-portions of skin tissue, providing more significant tightening and rejuvenation effects compared to micro-needling, which only punctures the skin to promote collagen production. Ellacor delivers deeper and more visible results, particularly for skin tightening, making it an excellent alternative for patients seeking non-surgical options.

Most patients start to see improvements in skin tightening and texture within 1-3 months after treatment, as the skin’s natural healing process takes time to generate new collagen and elastin. The results continue to improve for up to 6 months post-treatment.

While both procedures aim to rejuvenate the face, a non-surgical facelift often relies on fillers, threads, or other techniques to lift and contour the skin, whereas Ellacor micro-coring physically removes tiny pieces of skin to tighten and improve its texture naturally. Ellacor offers a more direct method of skin tightening with minimal invasiveness and downtime, making it a preferred option for those looking for subtle yet noticeable enhancements.

As with any procedure, Ellacor micro-coring carries some potential risks, including temporary redness, swelling, bruising, and slight discomfort. However, since it does not involve heat, the risk of scarring or pigmentation changes is significantly reduced. It is crucial to have the procedure performed by a qualified provider to minimize any potential complications and achieve optimal results.
