Ellacor left me terribly scarred, as in Crater Like Scars, and with Coring Scars, from the Coring Device, as well as with severe Post Inflammatory Pigmentation/Melasma, and Broken Capillaries I will now.have to spend Considerable money, in the hopes I can at least lessen these effects. It also did not produce any noticable Anti-Aging effects, such as tightening, etc. For me, this was personally one of the worst decisions I have ever made, cosmetically, and financially.

Textural Changes, Track Marks, and Hypopigmentation.

Time will tell, after I have completed my Scar Revision treatments, but I should have mentioned Ellacor also resulted in extreme Textural Changes in my skin, as well as Hypopigmentation in some areas, and the "Core Marks", are actually Track Marks.

I have scarring, indents, pock marks and track marks as well-- and I'm over a year out. It has softened a bit, but it's still there. If any of your scar revision treatments work, can you please keep us posted? I'm so sorry that this happened to you too.

Absolutely. I will be sure to keep you posted. Please tell Ellacor, which is what I did. Also, in the interim of deciding on costly invasive procedures, I have learned Microneedling with PRP ( Vampire Facial), and possibly Microdermabrasion can be helpful. I am starting this today. Please wish me luck. Of course, I wish others that have had an adverse effect the very best in their healing. We have to be our own advocate....my Surgeon who performed Ellacor did nothing to help me,and told me it was all in my head!!!!

The post op instructions were inadequate. I kept Vaseline on my face for 10 days and slept on my stomach. developed suppurative granulomatous dermatitis. Antibiotics, steroids, biopsies and 2 dermatologists later and was sent to our university due to “complex infection needs team management”

I was watching a dermatologist online on YouTube who said lasers can fix all of the problems of Ellacor. Has anyone tried lasers with any luck?

I had Ellacor done 6 months ago and I still have grid marks on my face and noticed hyperpigmentation as well. I had laser treatment and miconeedling done recently and still looks no different. I’m afraid that this has ruined my face for good. I definitely regret ever doing, but I fell into the hype from my Botox Dr. Thank god they have pore blurring items out there to help cover the marks a little. My confidence isn’t like it use to be, I feel like people stare at my marks instead of me.

I feel you. I'm a year and a half out. It's better then it was a year ago--but it is no way near healed to match the areas of my face that were not treated. This has been really traumatic for me and I regret the decision to do it every single day.

I finished my third Ellacor several months ago. I didn't have any problems after the first two, but after this one, I feel like I'm just like you! Redness, bumps, uneven texture… I hate this!
