Rhys5Mar 25, 2024
Hello, I am a 47 year old man interested in getting the Ellacor procedure on my neck and jowls for skin tightening. But, don’t want to negatively affect my beard hair. So, does Ellacor negatively affect the beard? Thank you

The 8% setting can lead to prolonged redness or healing. If done by an experienced doctor, overlapping should not occur. Most of the time we use 5% as it seems to give a similarly good result with less redness

Yes it's a one time use tip and it's timed as well. Each tip I think has about 90 minutes and has 24,000 cores before the machine won't use it . That said, Ellacor is sold only to plastic surgeons and dermatologists. We hopefully all know how to keep you safe! Best Wishes!!

I'm quite impressed that you are justifiably concerned and skeptical of the marketing hype and social media buzz out there to hawk the use of the relatively expensive fraxel laser, RF, and ultrasound devices out there. It does really seem that many venues are quick to push for everything...
