Frequently Asked Questions

What is Ellacor?

Ellacor is an FDA-cleared, minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that uses innovative micro-coring technology to remove, tighten, and lift sagging skin. By precisely excising tiny micro-cores of the skin, the procedure stimulates collagen production and physically reduces excess tissue, resulting in a firmer, lifted, and more youthful appearance. Unlike traditional facelifts, Ellacor offers a non-surgical solution for moderate to severe skin laxity, particularly in the mid and lower face, without the extensive recovery time or scarring associated with surgery.

How Does Ellacor Work?

Ellacor is the first-of-its-kind treatment that uses non-surgical micro-coring technology to remove small portions of excess skin. Using precision-engineered hollow needles, Dr. Schwarzburg targets areas of moderate to severe skin laxity, like the cheeks, jowls, and neck. The removal of these micro-cores stimulates collagen production, which in addition to the physical extraction of tissue, lifts and tightens the treated area for a more youthful appearance.

What are the Benefits of Ellacor?

Non-surgical solution for skin tightening and rejuvenation.
Minimal downtime allows patients to return to daily activities quickly.
No scarring, unlike traditional surgical procedures.
Targets precise areas to effectively lift and tighten areas like the cheeks, jowls, and neck.
Stimulates collagen production for ongoing skin improvement.
Improves skin texture and overall firmness.
Long-lasting results with minimal need for maintenance treatments.

Who Should Consider Ellacor?

Individuals seeking a non-surgical solution to address moderate to severe skin laxity and wrinkle formation in the mid and lower face, can benefit from Ellacor’s microcoring technology.

What Are Common Treatment Areas for Ellacor?

Ellacor effectively treats moderate to severe skin laxity in several key areas:

Mid-Face: Addresses sagging cheeks and nasolabial folds, reducing lines and wrinkles for a refreshed look.
Lower Face: Lifts and firms the jawline and chin, restoring a more defined facial structure.
Neck: Tightens the submental and submandibular areas, reducing jowls and creating a more contoured neck.
Body: Firms sagging skin on the abdomen and inner arms, providing a smoother, toned appearance.

When Should I Avoid Ellacor?

Ellacor may not be suitable for individuals with certain health conditions or severe skin laxity that would typically require plastic surgery. It is not recommended for those with active skin infections or inflammation in the treatment area, autoimmune diseases, or blood clotting disorders. Additionally, individuals on blood thinners or prone to keloid scarring should avoid this treatment.

How Do I Prepare for Ellacor?

Before Ellacor, avoid blood-thinning medications like aspirin, ibuprofen, and supplements such as vitamin E and omega-3s for at least one week. Limit alcohol intake for 48 hours prior to the procedure, stay hydrated, and follow a balanced diet to support healing.

What is Actual Procedure Like?

Preparation: The treatment area is thoroughly cleaned, and a local anesthetic is infiltrated to minimize discomfort.

Micro-Coring Procedure: Dr. Schwarzburg uses the Ellacor device to target specific areas of concern, safely and precisely removing tiny micro-cores of skin in a stamp-like pattern. Patients may experience minor pressure or discomfort, but the procedure is generally well-tolerated.

Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, the treated area is sanitized, and ice packs are provided to reduce swelling and discomfort. Dr. Schwarzburg will give you post-care instructions and schedules a follow-up to monitor healing and results.

What Is the Aftercare Following the Procedure?

To ensure optimal results and a smooth recovery after Ellacor, follow these aftercare guidelines provided by Dr. Schwarzburg:

Avoid makeup, skincare products, and shaving for at least 3 days to prevent irritation.
Use cold compresses to reduce swelling and discomfort;
Take Ibuprofen for pain or tenderness if needed.
Take prescribed antibiotics for 2 days to minimize the risk of infection.
Avoid touching or picking at the treated area to prevent infection or scarring.
Apply sunscreen with SPF 30+ and avoid direct sun exposure to prevent hyperpigmentation.

HHow Long is the Downtime After Ellacor?

Most patients experience some redness, swelling, and mild discomfort for the first 3 to 7 days after the treatment. Social downtime is usually limited to one week, with any visible side effects like minor bruising or redness subsiding within that time.

What are the Risks and Complications of Ellacor?

While micro-coring is generally safe, it is an advanced procedure that should only be performed by trained and experienced doctors to ensure the best results and minimize risks.

Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, bruising, itching, skin dryness, and roughness, often resembling a mild sunburn. Circular marks or skin peeling may also appear but typically fade within a week.

Rare complications, such as hyperpigmentation, hypopigmentation, infection, or skin necrosis, can occur, though they are uncommon and manageable with proper care.

When Will I See Results After Ellacor?

Patients typically begin to see visible improvements in skin firmness and texture within the first week. However, full results develop progressively over 2-3 months as collagen production increases leading to skin tightening with optimal results seen around the 3-month mark.

How Long Do Results Last?

Results from Ellacor treatments can last 5 to 7 years, making it one of the most long-lasting non-surgical options for skin tightening. Maintenance treatments can help extend the longevity of your results, depending on factors such as age and lifestyle.

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

Most patients achieve the desired results with skin tightening and lifting after 1 to 2 sessions. However, those with more severe skin laxity may require up to 3 sessions, spaced several weeks apart, to achieve optimal outcomes.

Is Ellacor Safe?

Yes, Ellacor is FDA-cleared and considered safe for treating moderate to severe skin laxity. However, the success and safety of the procedure are highly dependent on the skill, experience, and expertise of the doctor performing it. When administered by a trained and experienced physician like Dr. Schwarzburg, Ellacor offers a low-risk, minimally invasive alternative to surgical procedures, ensuring optimal results with minimal complications.

Does Ellacor Hurt?

Thanks to the use of tumescent anesthesia, most patients experience little to no pain during the Ellacor procedure. While you may feel slight pressure or mild discomfort, the process is generally well-tolerated by Dr. Schwarzburg’s patients. After the procedure, once the numbing agent wears off, mild discomfort may occur, which can be managed with over-the-counter painkillers such as ibuprofen.

How Much Does Ellacor Cost?

The cost of Ellacor treatments varies depending on the treatment area and individual patient needs. On average, prices in NYC range from $3,000 to $6,000 per session. A personalized consultation with Dr. Schwarzburg at Skinly Aesthetics will provide a detailed cost estimate based on your specific goals.

What Treatments Complement Ellacor?

Ellacor can be paired with various treatments to enhance overall results, offering a more comprehensive approach to rejuvenation:

Neurotoxins like Botox and Dysport smooth dynamic wrinkles like forehead lines and crow’s feet that Ellacor doesn’t address.
Dermal Fillers such as Juvederm or Restylane restore lost volume and smooth deep wrinkles, ideal for areas with volume depletion.
Skin resurfacing treatments like Pure Plasma improve skin texture, tone, and pigmentation, complementing the tightening effects of Ellacor.
RF Microneedling treatments including Secret RF and Morpheus8 boost collagen production and skin tightening to further support Ellacor’s results. Agnes RF targets areas like the upper and lower eyelids for precise tightening where Ellacor may not reach.
Other lifting procedures like PDO thread lifts manually elevate sagging skin and provides added support for a more comprehensive anti-aging solution.

Is Ellacor Worth It?

Absolutely. With minimal downtime, long-lasting results, and a non-surgical approach, Ellacor is a highly effective solution for those seeking to address skin laxity and wrinkles without invasive surgery. Many patients report high satisfaction with their rejuvenated, youthful appearance.

What are Alternatives to Ellacor?

For individuals who may not be ideal candidates for Ellacor, there are other effective alternatives to consider. Treatments like Morpheus8 or PDO Thread Lifts offer similar skin tightening and rejuvenation benefits. Dr. Schwarzburg will assess your specific needs and guide you toward the most suitable option for achieving your desired results.
