Over time, the signs of aging eventually effect us all. While fine lines and wrinkles in the forehead and around the eyes can usually be treated with Botox, peri-oral wrinkles around the mouth and laxity in the lower face can be more challenging. In fact, you may even be considering a facelift. At Integrated Dermatology of Reston, we are proud to offer Ellacor, an advanced skin tightening treatment that can provide drastic results without surgery. With Ellacor – non-surgical facelift in Northern Virginia – you can remove sagging skin and tighten the skin of the mid to lower face without the risks associated with surgery.
You may think the only way to address moderate to severe skin laxity, wrinkles, and sagging skin is with a surgical facelift, but that isn’t the case anymore. While you may see results after a facelift, it comes with a price, literally and figuratively. You’ll have a long recovery that includes weeks off work and pain, tightness, and bruising for up to a year after your surgery. Additionally you will have scars from your surgery and your results may not be as natural looking as you hoped.
What if we told you could get a non-surgical facelift in Northern Virginia that offered similar results as surgery, but without the downtime and with more natural looking results? With Ellacor you can! Ellacor is the only FDA-cleared procedure to non-surgically remove excess skin, which can help to improve the appearance of wrinkles in the lower face and the peri-oral lines around the mouth.
The Ellacor device uses very fine hollow needles to precisely remove skin. As you heal, the treated skin will tighten, giving you a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance. The treatment is fast, only taking around 30 minutes. Ellacor recovery is also much easier than a surgical facelift. You may be red, swollen, or bruised for up to a week, but most patients don’t need to take off work. You may start to see results as soon as a week after treatment, with full results in about 6 months.
Addressing wrinkles and improving your appearance no longer requires a painful surgery with a long recovery. With Ellacor, you can naturally tighten your skin for a more youthful appearance.
