REVEALING INNER YOUTH.
See real patients who have experienced the ellacorTM difference.
The ellacor™ System with Micro-Coring™ Technology treats wrinkles without the need for surgery, fillers, or laser treatments.
Ellacor™ is designed to:
Reduce aging skin
Improve skin architecture
Provide natural-looking results with minimal downtime 1,2
HOW DOES EllaCor™ REDUCE SKIN AGING?
Unlike traditional microneedling, the Ellacor™ system’s micro-sized needles are hollow. It’s designed this way to allow the device to easily remove columns of skin tissue. The skin’s healing process will react by closing in on these spaces, resultings in tighter and smoother skin after healing.
The hollow inside, or core, of each needle is as small as 0.5 millimeters and should cause minimal to no pain during the treatment. Anesthesia will be administered to make the treatment comfortable for patients.

Ellacor™ AFTERCARE
After an Ellacor™ appointment, patients will be instructed to apply a protective dressing or ointment. The dressing will help prevent infection in the treated areas for at least one to three days.
Patients may experience minimal redness, swelling, or bruising, but these should go away after three days.
IS Ellacor™ SAFE?
Ellacor™ is FDA-approved to treat superficial wrinkles in the mid to lower face. It has passed numerous clinical tests and is deemed safe for most patients who want to reduce the appearance of skin aging.
Ellacor™ is designed as an alternative for those who aren’t comfortable undergoing surgery, like plastic surgery. Our team of medical professionals at Allenby Cosmetic Dermatology is trained to perform safe and effective treatments for patients.
