Ready for a smoother, firmer look—without the scalpel? At Atlanta MediSpa, we’re proud to offer Ellacor with Micro-Coring® Technology, a revolutionary treatment that visibly reduces wrinkles and excess skin in the mid-to-lower face without surgery or lasers. This minimally invasive procedure is FDA-cleared and clinically proven to tighten skin by physically removing thousands of micro-cores—triggering natural healing and collagen production without leaving scars. Ellacor uses advanced hollow needles to remove micro-cores of skin in a precise grid-like pattern. As these tiny wounds heal, your skin becomes visibly firmer, tighter, and smoother—naturally. The device is so precise that surrounding tissue remains untouched, making recovery faster and easier compared to more invasive treatments. The treatment takes place in our East Cobb office under local anesthesia.

FAQs:
How does ellacor work?
Ellacor uses hollow needles to remove micro-cores of skin, resulting in an improved appearance of wrinkles without evidence of scarring
How is ellacor different from other skin revitalization devices?
Ellacor removes micro-portions of excess skin to achieve an improvement in the appearance of wrinkles, whereas many other skin revitalization devices use heat generated by laser, radio frequency and ultrasound energy to induce intentional thermal injury to the skin.
How many procedures will I need?
As every patient has different needs, please speak with your physician to determine the treatment plan that is right for you. In the clinical trial, most patients underwent a series of three procedures spaced approximately 30 days apart.
How is ellacor different from microneedling?
Microneedling uses small needles to injure the tissue, but skin is not removed during this procedure – the tissue is temporarily displaced. Ellacor is the first device to actually remove skin on the microscale.
How long is a typical procedure?
An ellacor procedure typically takes about 30 minutes or less.
Is the procedure painful?
Your physician will provide you with appropriate anesthesia prior to the procedure to make you more comfortable. Most patients in our clinical trial reported pain during the procedure as less than 2 on a 0-10 scale
Is the recovery time long?
Recovery time ranges from a few days to weeks, which can vary by patient and treatment settings. Since every patient heals at different rates, patient results and experience may vary. Please consult with your ellacor provider for more information.
How do I know whether ellacor is right for me?
It is best to make an appointment to speak directly with your physician to see if you’re a candidate for ellacor.
