ellacor® Micro-Coring® Procedure
Ellacor with Micro-Coring Technology is the first and only device of its kind that removes skin on the microscale with 90% of patients showing an improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe wrinkles. Ellacor provides natural-looking results without the pain associated with more invasive surgery or procedures. Over 86% of patients are satisfied with their ellacor results!
Ellacor is ideal for patients looking for a non-surgical solution for mid-to-lower face wrinkles and excess skin. 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.
At SkinBody Memphis, ellacor can also be discussed for loose or crepey skin concerns across the entire body when appropriate. This may include concerns such as loose skin after weight loss, loose skin after Ozempic or GLP-1 treatment, loose skin after pregnancy, sagging skin, skin laxity, loose neck skin, turkey neck, jowls, and sagging jowls. Your provider will evaluate your skin, treatment area, healing history, and goals to determine whether ellacor is right for you.
