1.5 Years Later and Results Still Visible!!
As a 56-year-old woman who lost a significant amount of weight in my late 30s, I hated my saggy skin, turkey neck and baggy chin area. When I heard about Ellacor, and saw that Dr. George was one of the first certified dermatologists in the US to offer it, I knew I had to try it. I had Ultherapy 3 years prior, and though I saw good results, I was ready for a refresh.
I did a lot of research and saw the horror stories, but when I had my consult, I realized that the majority of the bad experiences were not following the approved protocols - treating areas of the face outside of what should have been treated, etc.
Dr. George thoroughly explained what would be done and answered my questions. She was up front about the downtime and assured me I could have VBeam sessions to treat the bruising/redness that would result.
The team at Wilmington Dermatology couldn't have been better. I was numbed, and the process itself took less than 30 minutes. I was able to check out in the room and exit through a back door like a celebrity, though I would have been comfortable going through the front office. I used my ice packs as instructed and returned for VBeam which definitely shortened my recovery time and got me back on camera for Team calls very quickly (redness almost completely gone by day 4).
By 8 weeks, I had very noticeable results that I was happy with. I opted not to have another session as a result. I still feel my collagen is increased and my skin is glowing, and looks much better than many my age.

8 weeks after Ellacor
Clean skin without makeup or moisturizer. I am satisfied at this point and will am thinking I will use kybella on my left side under my chin to get rid of the fat that is uneven vs another Ellacor treatment. I will withhold that decision for another month until 90 days to see how much more improvement I have.
One month after Ellacor
One month later, and I’m really satisfied with the results. I can still feel what is a bit of bruising in the two areas of redness, but they continue to improve. I probably will not bother to go get more Vbeam, though I know it would take care of it. It’s just not that visible once I have sunscreen on. I am definitely seeing an improvement in my lips, where it has lifted, bringing more fullness, back, and tightness under my chin. I hope this will progress more each month. I don’t think I would do this a second time as I’m fairly satisfied with what I am seeing now, but that will be determined that my three month check in with my dermatologist.
