The No Surgery Jowl Lift ✨
Ellacor uses Micro-Coring™ to remove thousands of tiny micro-cores of skin (no scalpel, no stitches). As those micro-cores close, the skin contracts and tightens, improving jawline definition. Typical plans include a series of 2–3 sessions, building natural, cumulative results.
The Ellacor Procedure & Downtime at a Glance:
Visit length: ~30–60 minutes
Comfort: Topical/local anesthesia; most patients describe pressure or scratching sensations
What it does: Removes micro-cores of skin (about 5–8% per treatment area), prompting tightening as you heal
# of sessions: Usually 2–3, spaced ~8–12 weeks apart
Downtime: Redness/swelling for a few days; social downtime typically 3–7 days
Aftercare: Gentle cleanse, moisturize, strict SPF; avoid heat/sun/exfoliants until cleared
Curious about other no-surgery options? 🤔
THREADS (PDO/PLLA) are best for early to moderate jowls needing an instant, subtle lift. Threads reposition tissue right away and stimulate collagen for months. Results are natural and maintenance is typically 12–18 months.
CO2 LASER (Fractional/Ablative) improves skin quality and firmness by resurfacing and tightening the dermis, softening marionette lines and crepey skin around the jawline. Expect more downtime (5–10 days) than non-ablative lasers; think quality + texture upgrade rather than a deep “lift.”
BIOSTIMULATORS (Sculptra®, Radiesse®) are for laxity related to volume loss/skin thinning. These injectables trigger your own collagen, gradually thickening and firming the lower face over 3–6 months with very natural results.
✨ Bottom line: If jowls are bothering you and you’re not ready for surgery, Ellacor can meaningfully tighten and refine the jawline often even better when paired with targeted options like threads, CO₂ laser, or biostimulators.
