Skin laxity is the gradual loss of firmness and elasticity that can occur as collagen and elastin naturally decline over time. This may lead to loose or sagging skin, softer facial contours, and noticeable changes across the face and body. Contributing factors can include natural aging, significant weight loss, pregnancy, sun exposure, and genetics. While skin laxity often appears alongside wrinkles, the two concerns are different: wrinkles are lines and folds in the skin, while skin laxity refers to a loss of structural support and elasticity. Patients seeking an Ellacor® treatment in Cornelius, NC, may consider this option as part of a personalized plan to address loose or sagging skin without traditional surgery. During a consultation, your provider will evaluate both concerns and outline the treatment options that may be appropriate for you.
Ellacor® is an FDA-cleared Micro-Coring® Technology designed to remove tiny micro-cores of excess skin without surgery.

Rather than relying on heat or energy to stimulate collagen production, as many traditional skin tightening treatments do, Ellacor® micro-coring mechanically removes small cores of skin to help address concerns related to skin laxity.
