Ellacor® is a groundbreaking, FDA-cleared micro-coring treatment designed to remove excess skin and visibly tighten the face without scalpels, stitches, or heat. Using ultra-fine hollow needles, Ellacor precisely extracts tiny micro-columns of skin, triggering natural healing and contraction. The result: dramatically smoother, firmer skin—especially in the mid to lower face.
✔ Removes excess skin without surgery
✔ Tightens sagging cheeks, jawline, and lower face
✔ Minimally invasive with minimal downtime
✔ No heat, no energy, no scarring
✔ Stimulates collagen for long-lasting lift
At Kovak Cosmetic Center, we’re proud to be among the first practices to offer Ellacor®—a true breakthrough in non-surgical skin tightening. Led by Dr. Kovak, our team tailors every treatment to your unique skin quality, aging pattern, and goals for natural-looking results that elevate your confidence.
Mild redness, pinpoint crusting, and slight swelling are expected. You’ll leave with a protective barrier ointment and simple aftercare instructions.
✔ Mild to moderate redness and puffiness
✔ Tiny micro-dots that close within 24–48 hours
✔ Return to most daily activities in 3–5 days
Micro-healing begins as the skin contracts and collagen is activated beneath the surface.
✔ Skin starts to feel firmer
✔ Early signs of lift and tone
✔ Redness and crusting begin to resolve
Your complexion appears smoother and tighter. Makeup may be worn after the healing phase is complete.
✔ Visible tightening in the lower face
✔ Smoother skin with less laxity
✔ Firmer, more contoured jawline and cheeks
Collagen remodeling continues as your results refine. Expect a noticeable lift and improved skin elasticity.
✔ Peak tightening and textural improvement
✔ Reduced jowls, crepiness, and sagging
✔ Rejuvenated facial contour without looking “done”
If you’re noticing sagging skin around your mouth, chin, or lower cheeks—but aren’t ready for a facelift—Ellacor® is a powerful in-between solution. It’s ideal for:
✔ Mild to moderate skin laxity
✔ Fine lines and crepey texture
✔ Skin tightening without surgery
✔ Patients with light to medium skin tones (Fitzpatrick I–IV)
We’ll evaluate your candidacy and create a plan just for you.
Ellacor® uses micro-coring technology to physically remove tiny cores of skin—about the width of a human hair—without causing thermal damage. This creates controlled micro-injuries, prompting the skin to close, tighten, and regenerate new collagen.
