Ellacor™ Micro-Coring: Non-Surgical Skin Removal in Northern Virginia

Ellacor Treatment & Wrinkle Reduction

Schedule A Consult: (703) 992-7779

If you are looking for a way to achieve a tighter, more youthful appearance without the downtime and scarring associated with traditional facelift surgery, LaBelle MD Esthetics is proud to introduce the revolutionary Ellacor™ System with Micro-Coring™ Technology.

Located in Vienna, VA, and serving patients throughout Fairfax County and Northern Virginia, Dr. Lorena Khouri Popp and our expert team specialize in advanced, non-surgical anti-aging solutions. Ellacor is a breakthrough procedure that physically removes sagging skin on a micro-scale, providing remarkable, natural-looking results for the mid and lower face

What is Ellacor Micro-Coring?

Ellacor is the first and only FDA-cleared device capable of removing excess skin without surgery, thermal energy (heat), or evidence of scarring. Unlike traditional lasers or radiofrequency (RF) microneedling that rely on controlled heat to stimulate collagen, Ellacor utilizes specialized hollow needles (less than 0.5 mm in size) to physically extract tiny micro-cores of skin. During a single session, the device can seamlessly remove up to 8% of the skin’s volume in the treated area. The body’s natural healing response then quickly closes these micro-cores, resulting in a noticeably tighter jawline, improved skin architecture, and a dramatic reduction in moderate to severe wrinkles.

Why Choose Ellacor for Skin Tightening?

For patients in Northern Virginia seeking an alternative to invasive cosmetic surgery, Ellacor bridges the gap between traditional energy-based skin rejuvenation and a surgical facelift.

Non-Surgical Skin Removal: The only device of its kind to physically remove sagging skin without incisions.
No Heat or Thermal Damage: Because Ellacor relies on mechanical micro-coring rather than lasers or ultrasound, it eliminates the risk of thermal injury to the surrounding tissue.
Rapid Healing & Minimal Downtime: The extracted cores are so small that they fall below the threshold of normal scarring. Most patients experience a quick recovery window of just 3 to 7 days.
Natural-Looking Results: By removing lax skin and triggering your body’s innate healing process, Ellacor restores youthful contours without the “pulled” or “overfilled” look sometimes caused by surgical procedures or excess dermal fillers.

What to Expect at La Belle MD Esthetics

1. Personalized Consultation

Your journey begins with a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Lorena Khouri Popp. We take pride in developing a highly individualized anti-aging plan tailored to your exact facial anatomy and aesthetic goals.

2. The Ellacor Procedure

To ensure your complete comfort, the treatment area will be thoroughly numbed using local anesthesia prior to the procedure. The Ellacor device is then gently guided across the target areas. The micro-coring process is incredibly fast—a 10mm square of skin can be treated in under three seconds. A standard session typically takes less than an hour.

3. Recovery and Results

Following your treatment, it is normal to experience some redness, swelling, and mild bruising for a few days. Because the skin heals so rapidly, downtime is minimal. While some patients notice an immediate improvement, the most dramatic results unfold over the following weeks and months as the skin fully heals and tightens. Most patients achieve optimal results with a series of 2 to 3 treatments, spaced about a month apart.
