More about me as a Cosmetic Dermatologist:
Hi my name is Dr. Stefani Kappel and I’m a board certified Dermatologist! I’ve been practicing dermatology for 15 years and have been obsessed with skin my entire life.
Authenticity and honesty is my priority. Unlike many dermatologists on CZcams I do not accept any paid partnerships. I never have and I never will. Everything I post from skincare to in office procedures are ones that I truly believe in.
After obtaining my medical degree I completed a residency in a dermatology at UCLA. I took my first job as full time faculty at UCLA as professor of Dermatology.
It was then my love for teaching expanded and I began to educate thru social media. I post educational videos for my patients and for “skin nerds” like me who want to take their understanding of skin care to the next level.
Thank you for joining my CZcams Derm family 💙
I am also the creator and formulator of MDAiRE Skincare

I didn’t have the Morpheus 8 but I did have Secret RF and it did nothing. Since that time I got myself a Dr. Pen and I microneedle at home at a depth of 1 mm above my eyes and 1.5 below and I am delighted at how effective it is. I watched several hours of training videos for aestheticians on CZcams, and I’m highly attentive to sterile practices. Seeing all these comments about people disappointed with the results from Morpheus 8 convinces me that my $130 investment in my Dr. Pen was a good idea. Thank you for engaging with your viewers so well and have a wonderful time in Hawaii.
Would you mind sharing what results you saw with Dr. Pen? I'm trying to decide which treatment would work best for me.
I love your honesty and your wonderfully detailed explanations! I know I can trust everything that you’re telling us about because you’re not sponsored by anyone and you’re giving your expert opinion. Thank you for giving us such a great education!
Thank you for your honesty, there is so much out there, its great to have someone that isn't afraid to speak the truth about all this! At 49, I'm starting out on my botox, sculptra journey and want to add an in-depth laser/miscrodneedling treatment as well so this was beyond helpful!
❤
How is your Sculptra journey going?have you seen any results yet.
Morpheus PLUS something else! Thank you so much for going so in-depth in describing why you prefer certain treatments!!
This professional critique w/ full explanation is so helpful. And, may of the comments, as well. Thank you!
Hello Dr. Kappel! I am a new subscriber to your channel, and I just wanted to thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise. I was curious about Morpheus 8 and Ellacor, and now thanks to your excellent video, I understand how each treatment works as well as the pros and cons associated with both treatments. I also appreciate the fact that your videos are not sponsored. In my opinion, it makes the information you share more credible and reliable. Thank you again, and I look forward to watching more of your content.
Thank you for recognizing that and thank you for responding!!
Hello Stefani, thank you for your honesty and transparency!!! You’re truly one in a million, all doctors should take a queue from you and stop being sponsored 🙏
Thank you so much!! I've had a few collogues who accept paid partnerships actually upset with me for pointing this out to my followers but I feel its the right thing to do. Thank you for supporting this movement :)). Always non-sponsored😍
@@DrStefaniKappel that’s what makes you an amazing leader ❤
Loved the video, thanks for the detailed review and for being authentic 🙂
You're so welcome!!!
Hi Stefani! I am one of your clients ❤ Ive read online that Dr Ben Talei, a highly regarded plastic surgeon warns against scaring with Ellacor. Thank you for clearing this up. I was bummed out as I want Ellacor on my face and knees!!!
I speak a s a surgeon and procedural dermatologist that there is no scar formation that would affect the tissue with a negative impact as a surgical candidate. Remember plastic surgeons want to operate. They don't usually like to promote anything but surgery.
@@DrStefaniKappel That’s good to know! I will be coming in after summer. Can you use it on the skin above the knees off label?
I just found your page and instantly subscribed i love that you aren’t sponsored!!!! Can you please do a video on stretch mark solutions and dermafibroma i have both 😭
Grateful for your honesty 🔥
I’m so glad that you posted this and keep it real. I was very nervous to get Morpheus8 for my acne scars because I’m afraid of fat loss on my face. My doctor recommended it because he’s used it a lot on my darker skin tone. I do regret it a little because he did go 3mm on my cheeks even though I said my concern of fat loss. I’m afraid in a year I’ll look older. I did gasp at the laser cost so that did also influence my choice to do Morpheus8 but sound like it would be worth the money to do a laser instead - the ultra clear I’ve read is safe for my olive skin
Hi Stefani! Thanks for all the great advice and your honesty! Can you talk about the sofwave treatment and how it compares to these?
I love how she actually cares about things being accessible for everyone 💙
I know you done a cellulite video before but do you think micro coring would give good treatments for cellulite or even the body?
I had Morpheus8 done and had incredible results. I had many many people come up to me and ask me what I had done to my skin, or just generally tell me my skin was amazing (I am 37). I just had my 4th Morpheus8 treatment yesterday and I am excited to see the results (the previous three were last year). You do have do do maintenance treatments.
I've had it done with amazing results and so have several other people I know.
I'm 74, have kept up with procedures over the years, no surgery in 25 yrs, just maintenance procedures as I think you look silly trying to keep up with the aging of the the body, but simple procedures helped keep me fresh and Morpheus is one I've been doing just for the jawline for 3 yrs and I luv it. Otherwise, I keep diet clean clean clean, bodybuild, rock climb, sky dive, yoga, biking for HIIT as well as longer rides for endurance and keeping that blood flow going will also help the skin look fresh. I never went up and down in weight so I believe it helped my skin from the wrinkles and crinkles, but mid 70's kinda stink as that's when it starts going down hill but heck, I'm healthy, what more really can a girl ask for.
The new flowers must bloom and keep us "wise humans" aka homo sapiens procreating.
"Wise human
What the name Homo sapiens means. The name we selected for ourselves means 'wise human'. Homo is the Latin word for 'human' or 'man' and sapiens is derived from a Latin word that means 'wise' or 'astute'."
THANK YOU STEFANIE FOR ALL YOUR WONDERFUL WISDOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please 🙏share updates about your Morpheus 8 treatment. I'm getting mine dome, but I'm afraid about losing my face fat pads with that treatment. I have heard lots of bad reviews about losing your face good fat.
Thank you
@@monic3982 I didn’t lose any face fat
@@monic3982I looooove the feedback I’ve read on Morpheus. I do Morpheus in my office here in Atlanta, and for all of the horrible reviews on Morpheus it’s the user. You have to understand microneedling with RF, you have to understand the settings and you have to be realistic w results and understand it’s a marathon vs a race. It can truly change the texture of your skin, it can tighten if you don’t have severe laxity and it’s great for shrinking pores. Great home care is a must in my opinion
Great information. Have a great vacation! Thank you!
Thank you!!
Very informative thank you for this video and really value your honesty. Can you please consider doing a video on the downtime and healing process. Thank you.
Hi Stefani, great video, wellicht explained! Work in aesthetics myself and fully agree!! Thanks for being so clear and outspoken!! You are a beautiful person!
Thank you for your honesty. You have beautiful skin. Do you have a video of your skin regime and what you have done up to this point?
Thanks for your videos! I've learned so much from you. I've had two Morpheus8 treatments. I didn't notice a difference until I saw the before and after pictures. There waa a big difference in my jawline. I just got a third treatment 5 days ago. We'll see how it goes but I'd rather see a difference looking in the mirror instead of having to look at and afters. I'm interested in Ellacor when it become more widespread in Sacramento.
Did you now see a difference?.. I'm planning to get in my neck and lowe face..but surgeon said he would do my whole face but I'm scare to end up with permanent scars or I don't know much of morphus 8
@@odettg9106 I do notice a big difference in tightening but not a lot of increase in volume. I think Sculptra in addition to Morpheus8 would be great. I haven't gotten Sculptra in a long time. If your Dr is board certified and experienced I wouldn't worry about scarring. I didn't have any. Good luck!
❤ this! Would you be able to do an updated skincare video for pregnant women showing specific products? Which product from which brands are considered safe?
Great idea!
Wish I had seen this video earlier. I just had my 3rd Morpheus 8 treatment last week. I’m getting married in Sept and want to look vibrant and fresh. I’m 35 so I don’t need an aggressive treatment but I’m not feeling to hopeful about it right now after seeing this. Still crossing my fingers and hoping for some good results 🤞🏼
Don’t lose hope in Morpheus. Morpheus is a marathon vs a race, so it takes to me for the body to stimulant collagen and those elastin fibers.
I perform Morpheus in my office, and I’ve never had any office because I’ve studied the machine extensively and I’ll call the reps in a heartbeat if I’m unsure of something. Make sure you’re using good at home care ((retinol, vitamin c, spf etc)
My friend was having miconeedling every month for awhile. I saw no difference in her skin. She thought she did but wasn’t sure. I told her save your money; you look fine. Ella or is exciting! I am sure it is a case by case basis. Would like to know when you are doing more consults.
Love love all your content and keeping us informed! doctor Kappel is having one fraxel restore a year enough or a couple clear and brilliant instead? ❤❤❤
Youre welcome!! usually one fraxel is equivalent to 4 clear and brilliants. But Fraxel has 1 week of downtime whereas clear and brilliant doesn't have any downtime. Whichever is better for you!!
Hi Stefani, Happy Easter, I hope you and family are having fun! Thanks for taking time to teach us all on your vacation time.
Awwww thank you!! I try to post content before they wake up!!
Although I’m not advocating for self-servicing in terms of micro-needling, I’ve been doing my own face and neck at home for about 3+ years now (quarantine times). I LOVE the results in terms of the texture of my skin, along with diminished fine lines. My skin is noticeably firmer and more plump. I also use anti-aging and restorative skincare products, including .05 Trentinoin and Snoxin II. Perhaps derma-rolling/micro needling allows for better penetration of products. There is no heat involved, and being mindful of sterility is essential.
I’m also more religious with my sunscreen. I’m 50.
I am so excited to add the Botox Nefertiti lift and eventually Ellacor…thanks to your amazing knowledge and willingness to share valuable information. I’m so glad I found you, and I share your videos with others regularly.
Thank you so much for sharing Lori!!🥰🥰🥰
I just had my first Merphus8…. Intense and I got local … I still have a erythrocyte stubble but starting to see some skin tightening 1 week out … excited…. I have worked in plastics for a while so I’m digging being the pt .
I have had one M 8, and it wasn't terribly painful, I managed it well, with numbing cream, only. I can honestly say, despite not expecting results until post 3rd treatment, I can see a difference. It's all a about the provider!! Make sure they are skilled.
@@karendecharmoy4124bingo!!!! It’s totally on the provider, and it’s sooo many out there that don’t understand the machine. I perform M8 in our office w my plastic surgeon. I’m very realistic and my clients are seeing results. It’s just not for everybody. Let’s be honest Dr’s will jack up a clients skin and so will an esthetician, PA or a Nurse. Sometimes experience doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll like the results esp w dark skin patients like myself
Dr Kappel . I love you’re videos . What is you’re favourite skin tightening treatment. Thank you
Hi Dr. Kappel!
Thank you for your generosity and for always keeping us in the know. I love how you geek out and share your knowledge of aesthetic innovation.
Will you have histo slides that you can show with the before/after pix?
How are the results for "lifting" marionette lines?
I read they just hit 100 units sold, so coming to more providers soon.
Its great at lifting nasolabial folds and marionette lines. I've seen histologic before and after photos but I do not have any from my own patients because I would have to do a skin biopsy which can risk a scar.
and yes! I think Ellacor will be expanding over the years with more providers having it available :)
May I ask clarifying questions about the after care? If the microcored skin needs hydration, why are petroleum jelly and anhydrous Alastin nectar used? Aren't those oil-based occlusives? Why not HA or another hydrator? As for the histo follow up...couldn't the excised skin be easily 'scoped for biopsy samples? Thank you so much for taking time to explain/reply!
You probably just saved me. Cuz I was considering doing the micro-needling with PRP. But it sounds like I really need Ellacor.
I highly recommend it :)
I did Morpheus 8 on face--3 rounds all aggressive and guess what…..it did NOTHING. AT. All. I was sooo angry I made them give me 80% of money back. All I was, was someone’s else’s financial gain. 😢 I wish I was able to come see you Steph. Perhaps in the future I plan a vacation to Cali and do a procedure with you ❤
I hear this same thing every day :((
So HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE.... that the the Dr. Could make that a big of a difference. Seriously. Because I've been seeing this SAME COMMENT.... ALL OVER THE INTERNET....
Dr. Kappel, thank you so much for taking time out during your vacation to share this video with us! Assuming this would be good for marionette lines on a woman in her late 60s with very good skin (apart from a little hyperpigmentation and melasma), can you recommend an Ellacor provider in the Boston area? Also, can you give us an appropriate idea of the cost (with the understanding that prices will vary by provider and market)?
Many thanks and enjoy some well-deserved R&R with your beautiful family! 💗
Yes!! Dr. Mat Avram at Harvard/Mass General and Dr. Omar Ibrahimi in Connecticut
@@DrStefaniKappel thank you SO much, Dr. Kappel! You’re a gem. 💗
I find it interesting that the videos that I've watched where Dr's were saying that microcoring or EllaCore didn't show any noticeable improvement were all from plastic surgeons. One even questioned if there were special lighting or camera angles used in the "after" pictures. I think microcoring sounds interesting and very promising. I look forward to hearing and seeing more positive results, especially on POC, in the future.
Once you get the backstory and the reason why physicians say certain things it makes sense. Hopefully with this info you guys will site your source and can make better decisions regarding which treatments may be best for you.
@@DrStefaniKappel thank you for being honest and sharing your side of things with sincerity.
Love all your video!! Dr. Kappel I’ve used skinbetter alto and trio for almost a Year. How do they compare to your vitamin c and moisturizer ? Thank you so much 😊
I love SkinBetter! But since they were bought out by Loreal my patients are saying they feel its different but I'm not sure if the formulas have changed? My MDAiRE Vit C-FK is different in that it contains L-ascorbic acid which is the most powerful Vit C derivative. L-ascorbic acid is the hardest to formulate but the most effective for skin health, melasma, anti-aging, etc. Alto contains THD and does not contain any L-ascorbic acid. I'd love for you to try the Vit C-FK and compare it to Alto and let me know what you think. My patients like it more and the results are pretty immediate. See for yourself!! xx
I just had my 2nd treatment of morpheus8 and for preventative care and a more snatched face (i'm 29). It's only been a month out and I like it but I wish I saw more informative videos of it like this one before committing to 3 treatments. I had the 1st & 2nd a month apart and at first the lady said to do the 3rd treatment 6 months later but now she wants to me go back next month again.. As people have said it's just the inflammation that makes your skin glow so I'm wondering if she's just trying to make a quick buck as a change of mind. I'm leaning more towards insisting to get the last one done 6 months from now & adding PRP for the long-term results I was seeking in the first place. I'd love to hear your thoughts, thank you for your videos I just found them & learning so much about devices!
I just did Ellacor in Miami 5 days ago! Skin is still pink but not bad. I can’t wait to see the results!
@Ana B please can you let me know your results? I’m contemplating this procedure but I’m nervous. I don’t know anyone who’s had this. Does it hurt? Is it equivalent to a facelift as far as tightening? How long for marks in face to go away? We need to hear from more people who have had this done.😊
Ohhhhh I'm excited for you!!!!! They say wait 90days but we are seeing results as early as 1 month and they continue to improve over time!!
@@lisaleed7615 I won’t see results for at least a month (and by the way, I just did my neck - which looks 10 years older than my face and needed help)! This isn’t going to give you the same results as a facelift, but it definitely removes some skin. I am on day 5 and still have some redness but it is healing very nicely. I don’t see grid marks just kind of looks like a mild rash. As for pain, they gave me some lidocaine injections. Those were uncomfortable but I didn’t feel the procedure at all. There are a couple of CZcamsrs who have done Ellacor and share results. You can check out Penn Smith for one. Good luck!
@@anab3056 thank you so much for sharing your experience with me. Maybe you can share results a month from now and let us know if it was worth it. Those grid marks look awful but thankfully they fade fast. I’ll definitely be checking other you tubers out. Thanks again!
Can you say who your provider is in Miami? I am in Fort Lauderdale and I would love to try it.
Hi Dr. Stefani! 😊
What would you recommend as anti aging treatment for someone with very sensitive skin (Rosacea, acne)? Because I'm beginning to get nasolabial folds and I can see how the skin is just starting to sag and wrinkle.
But I feel so trapped with my skin condition... 😢
Can you do a video on how to choose a good provider? I wish I could come to you, but I live in Chicago and if I needed multiple treatments that could get expensive
Thank you so much for sharing so much valuable information! I'm so grateful to have discovered your channel and have been watching every video and taking notes. I am looking into doing Ellacor in the next few months - are there any providers you can recommend to me in the NYC metro area? Please & thank you!!
Hi Dr Stefan totally love your videos. Are there any commercial devices that you have used in clinic available for home use?
Dr. Kappel, do you recommend anyone in Florida for Ellecor? Thanks for your wonderful videos.
Would micro needling without RF a better choice?
How is heat from RF different from the heat from thermage for the skin?
Thanks for your videos!!❤
My husband is a Dermatologist who told me not to do Morpheus 8 because it does nothing and I did my eyes. My legs next and I don’t see much.
Looking forward to Ellacor to come to my area. Closest is Cleveland ☹️
I’m sure it will be more available soon. A lot of my colleagues haven’t been able to get one. I’m not sure if there’s a limited number of devices or if they’re only selling to certain providers for now for safety reasons?
Would Ellacor be suitable post facelift as a maintenance treatment? I have been recommended Ultherapy but I’m quite amazed by the results of Ellacor Im seeing ? Thank you ❤
Had Morpheus in London with a renowned professional provider and even on my 40 years old skin with no deep wrinkles it made no difference, which is unfortunate because it is an expensive procedure
I hear this all too often. Thank you for sharing!
I had Morpheus once and it was extremely painful with the numbing cream for an hour before the session. I didn’t see any results and never went back for the other 2 sessions that I bought. My question is how painful is EllaCore? I could never try to do anything awake if as painful and aware minded as Morpheus, I believe people need to be out for that amount of pain (I have had Botox and I’ve had PRP and micro needling under my eyes w/o numbing). Is EllaCore this painful? Can you be put under if that painful?
What is the downtime ?
And how much does it cost ?
Where can we get this done ?
And is it safe for brown dark skinned pol....ifi its not known yet ..when can this be known..?
Love your show! Your eyes look fantastic today!!! This is the absolutely fantastic eye makeup and makes you look very sophisticated as well as shows off you as a very smart professional. I would love to have you as my doctor. Any desire to move from CA to VA?
I’m 50 and have been getting regular Vbeam and IPL treatments for YEARS. Big fan! I tried Clear&Brilliant but didn’t see much difference after the 3 sessions. Morpheus has been offered to me more times than I can count, but same as Ultherapy, I don’t typically line up to pay lots of money for a treatment that COULD give results in SOME patients. No thank you. Ellacor seems like one of the treatments that most, if not all, patients would see results. Seems impossible not to! It’s top of my list once the lower face laxity starts catching up with all of my preventive treatments, products and devices. I have 2 questions: one, can it help with the smokers/bar code lines around the mouth? And two, what are you thoughts on BBL (broadband light not butt😆) for hyperpigmentation? I’ve seen some great results online but have never been to a derm that has the machine. I’d love your thoughts!
Hi!! Ellacor is one of only few treatments for smokers lines around the mouth and its incredible for that indication!!! I'm not a big IPL fan because its not truly a laser and can often worsen hyperpigmentation. Vbeam, Fraxel, Pico, etc are much more specific, elegant and targeted therapies. xx
@@DrStefaniKappel Thank you for the response! I prefer Vbeam too, but do you feel that way about the BBL HERO, as well? It seems like an improvement on the IPL, and I’ve seen some amazing before/afters especially for hyperpigmentation. They often pair it with another device (Moxi or one other I can’t remember) for a one-two punch.
Ellacor hands down doesn’t remove fat had my first treatment love it how can you compare the two Morpheus8 is radiofrequency not skin removal
I had one treatment of morpheus done and I look worse now then before I had it. I have scarring on my face from it and now don't know what to do to reverse it . 😢
I did a series of morpheus8 and it melted my fat. My skin looks worse. It didn't help my acne scars. I got under eye hallows that didn't exist before. My skin is more loose a year later. It did not work. Thank you for your honesty! It's difficult for regular people to understand the difference. What are heat shock proteins? When is the heat from a laser a good thing? Thank you! Love your videos!❤
I hear this all the time. Look at the comments in this thread of everyone saying the same thing about Morpheus. This is why I don't recommend it. Heat shock proteins are present throughout the entire body and constitute the first line of cellular defense in response to trauma.
@Dr. Stefani Kappel MD, FACMS, FAAD
Wow! Thanks for replying. I'm so impressed!
@@DrStefaniKappel About "heat shocks proteins", would an at-home laser device (Nira) melt fat under your eyes?
I just did ellacore and it’s the morning of day 3. My skin seems more red and inflamed today vs yesterday. Should I switch to Vaseline ? Im currently using aquaphor.
I am in my 50s. No huge issues, a little laxity and some wrinkles. I had 3 sessions of Morpheous8 in the past 4 months.Despite numbing cream, I found the procedure painful, especially the second and third sessions. RN states she used the same settings and somehow during the 2nd and 3rd sessions it felt as the nerves were supersensitive. She said that this happens often but had no explanation why this phenomenon occurs. I honestly see no difference at all. In addition, nobody around me noted my skin of face looking "better" either. So I can just confirm that, at least in my case, I wasted time, energy, pain and money for essentially no results. Anyone else having my experience out there?
I hear that same story all the time. Hence my honest opinion of Morpheus 8. Thank u for sharing.
I’m in my 60s and wanted a refresh. I did 2 sessions of RF microneedling and…nothing. I didn’t have pain as I was well numbed but it was a big waste of money, in my opinion. It left me feeling like nothing would work for me, short of a facelift which won’t happen anytime soon. I would do the Ellacor but will have to travel to Dr. Kappel! Only the best:)
@@pamelavendetti1844 Aww thank you for sharing your honest opinions. Hopefully between this non-sponsored content and all of your honest comments describing your experiences on this channel will counterbalance all the fake science and marketing that is cluttering the aesthetic industry today. Its a movement 💪💪💪
I had Morpheus8 as well. I had laughing gas during it, so not a lot of pain, but no improvement at all.
I've been seeing this comment ALL OVER THE INTERNET.... sad about it.
But Dr Kappel. In the video of one of your patients you mention she had lasting pigmentation on one of her cheeks for longer and you had to treat that pigmentation with another laser. I follow her too, I saw her video and the pigment was noticeable and significant. So when you say ELLACOR doesn’t leave pigmentation cause it’s a mechanical procedure amd not heated is not true. She indeed had pigmentation you had to treat. And that means more time and more money. He’s I agree ☝️! I did Morpheus 2 times and the results where great for 3 months and then my skin went back to normal. I thought it was quite expensive but specially very VERY PAINFUL 😣. But my concern still is the pigmentation with ELLACOR
Thanks Stefani!!! No Ellacore where I live😥I’m hoping it comes
Thanks Kristy!! I’m sure it will become mire available as now it’s just limited to a number of providers. Some of my colleagues haven’t been able to get it yet. I’m sure with time more will face access to it :)
Is Ellecor safe around eyes?
You’re awesome thank you!
Youre so welcome!!!
Thank you Stefani. Can you recommend a MD in the Phoenix area who does Ellacor? Enjoy your vacation. I love your videos.
Thank you!! I don't know of anyone there but I'll let you know when and if I do!!
@@DrStefaniKappel Well then, I guess I’ll just have to come to you 😊
What are your thoughts on the secret RF micro-needling- please advise- Thx!
There is nothing wrong with honesty about one’s personal and professional experience and so am so glad that they’re a practitioner some people online who will just out of honesty and the desire to report all the facts I’m not afraid to go online and report their experience and their knowledge am. I think any one who thinks they’re out to discredit I think anyone who is threatened by that is dangerous and should not be threatened, but should be allowed to put would be nice if they put their honest opinion and experience off as well and that we are the top sum total of informed opinions and it’s not about selling a machine or making money ultimately it’s about trust and results and the rest of secondary so thank you so much
I agree completely
i don't know if you've heard about Potenza? here in the UK, beaty salons use Potenza and Morpheus8
Can you get Ellacor in an area that was treated a long time ago with Silikon 1000 microdrops? Never had any problems with the Silikon.
I would hold off in areas treated because we simply don’t know at this point. Maybe a small test spot would be a good idea.
I had 4 Morpheus 8. I only noticed a slight difference in firmness of my skin. It def was not worth it and didn't do anything for visible laxity.
Thanks for your unsponsored content! Regarding Ellacor, do you foresee it to be helpful for smoothing out acne scarring? Thanks!
Yes!! We are already using it for acne scars with great results so far!!
@@DrStefaniKappel Thanks for your reply. XO
hi Dr.Kappel! i just turned 30, and i want Ellacor for my smile lines and sagging nasolabial fat pad. is this something i can do? Also i heard people have red square pigmentation for weeks out… is there anything to avoid that happening
Hi Stefani! I love your channel and I just got the Ellacore procedure done today! I had Morpheus8 a year ago and I was very underwhelmed with the tightening results. I look completely beat up right now (literally red & purple), but I'm excited to see the results! I did notice a few areas where the device cored a few holes into my lips. Is that anything to worry about?
I love the results after one treatment I had 10 percent of skin removed
I got ellacore 7 weeks ago and I still see the little dots / holes in my skin . Is that normal ?
Hello, I really enjoy your video. I was wondering as a male patient. Can you do Ellacor on the face where we have beard? Did the treatment will create spot where the beard will not grow again? Thank you and I send you good vibes from Palm Springs :)
Great question!! and the answer is yes. Ellacor will not effect the beard hair growth in make patients. That’s where the
Thank for your answer! How can i get a appointment with you? My hubby and i are located in Palm Springs.
How does Ellacor compare to the Y-Lift?
I can’t find one ellacore provider in my area of metro Detroit MI. :(
What’s the difference between Ellacore and co2
Thank you For the info. What about fraxil? Is that a laser how does it work?
Fraxel is an amazing laser! I do a lot of it in my practice
I think Elacor results would be similar to a skin only facelift since it doesn't lift or tighten the SMAS.
I had one treatment. It does lift. Significant at least in my case.
You are correct. Ellacor only removes skin so it does not affect the SMAS or subcutaneous tissues. But its a great lift capacity without having to have surgery and if you decide to have surgery later there is no contraindication
Can you tell me if Moxie laser is worth the time and money?
One treatment I look better already can’t wait for second treatment
Can Fitzpatrick type V use this? Would Morpheus be better for me?
What is the typical downtime for ellacore treatment ?
Is there anyone in your field that you can recommend out near Temecula?
How does Ellacor compares to lasers? I’m curious. Very interesting video, thank you❤
They work by completely different mechanisms of action. Lasers resurface the skin and are more superficial. Ellacor is a tightening device that can also help texture (like fine lines and acne scars) by removing small colums of skin in a scarless fashion.
@@DrStefaniKappel can you still get Fraxel after. Im scheduled for Ellacore end of Sept but want the gravel for sun damage and wrinkles also
I prefer to have a facelift rather than spending fortune on another treatment that no guarantee results and can be harmful, morpheus8 has such a good marketing, people couldn't have enough and now most of them saying , wasting of money , the same was with Ulthera and other painful , traumatising procedure . I stick to lasers, skin boosters, and a bit of Botox .plus good skincare . Facelift, when time comes and I save money, I don't spend on worthless treatments .
Thank you for being very informative as always .
I had one ellacor treatment and it is beyond anything laser or micro needling. Ellacor is nothing short of amazing. I had great results
How much did you pay for ellacore?
@@lucid5411 Thats the consensus!!
@@lucid5411 Thank you for sharing!! I want it done myself!!
YES!!! Lasers, skincare, Sunscreen and botox are the way to go. I see my beauties in their 60s and 70s with incredible skin and thats what they've been doing! And now with Ellacor, we have another non-surgical option!!
I did Ellecor on February 8 I see a modest improvement but not impressed. I hate that I still have the red squares. I did laser and still see them.
How about now?
Dr question: prp? Thoughts video?
Which is best fraxel laser or ellacore or Thermage?
Is Ellacor anything like Opus Plasma?
Do you know if someone in Europe does the ELLACOR treatments please ? Thank you
Not to my knowledge yet but I'll let you know if I do!
Could you recommend someone in the NEw York/New Jersey area who uses Ellacore and who’s experienced?
Absolutely Dr. Omar Ibrahimi 😉 Harvard trained Dermatologist and completed a procedural fellowship in lasers, devices and Mohs surgery. An early adopter of Ellacor with lots of experience. He’s who you want to see.
@@DrStefaniKappel thank you for the quick response. I’ll check out that dr. Enjoy Hawaii and thank you for your honesty and transparency. Your a diamond in the rough and your client’s are truly blessed to have you!
How much down time with Elacore
Someone I know intimately spent so much money on Morpheus 8 and it was painful - results temporary and it was expensive - package deal she purchased!
Have you had microciring?
Thermage does not compare with microcoring
Do you do telehealth consults?
No not at the moment sorry :(
Morpheus did 0 for me. Only temporary tightening. I went to an experienced tech. 3 treatments and no improvement in wrinkles or sag
Thank you
I wish you were on the East Coast!
Me too!!!
Same!! I’m in Florida!
Having had one treatment I can definitely say I would not get this done by anyone other than an MD. It was intense and I can’t imagine a spa doing this.
Exactly. !00% agree.
Does Morpheus8 work better for the body?
I don’t think it makes a difference on body either. I’ll be starting to use Ellacor on body skin next week and will let you guys know with before and afters
I saw dramatic improvement with my tummy, neck and face with RF Morpheus 8 and plasma
Can you do the neck only?
A lady in the comments said she had only her neck done with Ellecor.
@@whiterobin01 I wonder how much it is?
❤
Wish you were on the East Coast!😢
Meee too!! I love the East Coast 🫶🏼
That’s why I stopped microneedling and switch to fractional laser
