Ellacor: A brand name for a microneedling device with radiofrequency (RF) energy. Microneedling creates controlled punctures in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response and collagen production. The RF energy further stimulates collagen and tightens the skin. Ellacor is used for wrinkles, fine lines, and skin laxity.

Pros:
Combines microneedling and RF for deeper rejuvenation.
Stimulates collagen production for firmer, smoother skin.
May be effective for wrinkles, fine lines, and skin laxity.

Cons:
More expensive than traditional microneedling.
Requires multiple sessions for optimal results.
Discomfort during treatment, numbing cream may be used.
Potential for temporary side effects like redness, swelling, and pinpoint bleeding.

Alternatives:
Traditional microneedling (without RF).
Laser treatments for wrinkles and skin tightening.
Dermal fillers for adding volume and definition.

Recovery:
1-3 days of downtime, with redness and swelling possible.
Sun protection is crucial after treatment.
