How Quickly Will I See Results With Ellacor®?

Skin laxity is one of the earliest signs of aging. Your skin starts to lose collagen in your 30s, leading to your skin becoming thinner and less resilient. At Coolspa, we offer Ellacor® as a minimally invasive skin tightening treatment that takes the benefits of microneedling to the next level to restore your youthful look. 

What is Ellacor® and What Does It Treat?

You’ve probably heard of microneedling, a powerful collagen-stimulating treatment that creates tiny channels in the skin. Ellacor® dramatically increases these results by removing tiny cores of skin that trigger an immediate healing reaction. These cores are about half a millimeter, and your aesthetics expert can customize your treatment depending on how many cores are removed. 

Ellacor® will effectively treat:

• Skin laxity
• Loss of facial definition
• Lines and wrinkles
• Crepey-looking skin

How Quickly Will I See Results With Ellacor®?

The unique benefits of Ellacor® come from how your skin responds to the removal of these micro-cores of skin. As your skin heals, it closes the openings created, tightening and lifting the skin in the process. The more cores are removed, the more dramatic your results. 

Most people will benefit from two to three sessions to achieve maximum skin tightening. Several sessions allow a significant number of micro-cores to be extracted for more firmness and lift after each treatment. 

While you may start to notice your Ellacor® results as your skin heals and tightens, your best results appear after about three months as your skin’s increased collagen production starts to pay off. Full results can continue to evolve for up to six months for ongoing improvements. 

Your results can last for up to a few years, although you might opt for maintenance sessions as needed to keep your skin tightening results. You can help them last longer by using sunscreen every day and developing a plan of targeted skincare products.

What Else to Expect After Ellacor®

While we love Ellacor® for the way it fights loose skin and wrinkles, we’re also fans of the minimal recovery time. Depending on the intensity of your treatment, you’ll probably take a few days to a week off from social activities. Your skin will look red and feel sensitive and swollen for a few days, and we’ll give you products to treat it with. 

If you’d rather restore your skin’s firmness and sculpt your features with no downtime, we may recommend Evoke facial contouring, a radiofrequency collagen-building treatment. While its results are less dramatic than Ellacor®, it may fit your lifestyle and goals better.
