The world of skin tightening continues to improve, and for patients, it can feel almost impossible to keep up. Luckily, CDAM is here to offer you all the best options in the latest technological advancements for cosmetic surgery. Wrinkle reduction can be treated like never before with a new level of minimally invasive technology called micro-coring.  

What Is Ellacor?  

This first-of-its-kind FDA-approved technology utilizes micro-coring to treat skin laxity and severe wrinkling. Its tightening power has successfully been applied to jowls, lines around the mouth, and sagging skin around the chin. 

What to Expect with Ellacor  

Ellacor uses hollow needles to remove microscopic cores of skin from the chin, jowls, and neck. Treatments are performed under local anesthesia, with lidocaine injections. This quick process only lasts about one hour and leaves no scarring on most patients.  Typically, your downtime will only last up to a week, however, most patients are able to wear makeup within a few days of the procedure. 

Ellacor Results  

Ellacor treatment provides substantial results within a few weeks, however, full results are often visible after three to four months. The process removes around the same amount of skin as a facelift and helps gradually smoothen and tighten skin.

The Side Effects of Ellacor  

Ellacor treatments are performed under local anesthesia with lidocaine injections, so you may feel a tingling sensation immediately after treatment as the agent works its way out of your body. This feeling will subside on its own, but you may be left with some minor swelling, tenderness, and bruising for a week after. Some patients may also notice mild redness for a few weeks after treatment as well, though this can often easily be hidden with makeup or tinted moisturizers. Notify CDAM if your side effects linger for a long time, or if more extreme side effects become apparent.

I have been going to see Dr. Kalimullah and Jennifer since 2017. They have been amazing and have provided the best service and keeping my face looking fresh. Their expertise is incredible and everything they have done for me has been immaculate – never any issues with the laser treatments or injections. They are also really mindful and conservative to ensure I look like me, but just the best version of me. Love this place. Only trust my face to them!

My experience at CDAM was very pleasant. Dr. Cavanaugh and his staff were warm and inviting. He explained the procedure thoroughly and was very gentle, making sure I was comfortable at all times. The medical assistant was nice and explained all the aftercare instructions in detail. My follow up appointment was seamless and efficient as well. I will be returning to CDAM in the future for more aesthetic procedures!
