Can Ellacor be safely done on East Asian skin?

Ellacor is FDA-approved for skin types I-IV, which includes light to medium skin tones. Because darker skin types (V and VI) can react differently to aesthetic treatments, separate clinical studies are needed to determine the device’s safety and effectiveness for light brown, brown and black skin tones. It would be beneficial for you to first identify your skin tone and then consult with a qualified provider such as us

Hi! Yes, Ellacor can be safely done on East Asian skin with an experienced practitioner. There is a risk of scarring and pigmentation changes, so proper pre-treatment consultation and aftercare are essential.

Yes it should be safe. Asian skin types have various skin phototypes that range from Fitzpatrick III to IV however Ellacor is indicated for Fitzpatrick I, II, III and IV so, unless the patient has some other contraindication, Ellacor should be safe to use on Asian skin. A personal history of hyperpigmentation should be reviewed when the doctor sees the patient. Best Wishes!!
