CACI
CACI Facials
CACI facials are a non-invasive aesthetic treatment that have been known to deliver dramatic results without the need for surgical interventions. Dubbed the ‘non-surgical facelift’, celebrities such as Jennifer Lopez, Kim Kardashian and Linda Evangelista are huge fans – whilst some have even bought their own machine for use at home. Every now and again a beauty hack will appear and become the new ‘It’ trend – which often disappears as quickly as it became popular. CACI facials however have been around for over 20 years and now the red-carpet secret is more accessible than ever. With its popularity on the rise, we thought we’d find out a little more about the treatment so you can judge for yourselves.
What does CACI mean?
CACI stands for Computer Aided Cosmetology Instrument… don’t worry, it’s not as scary as it sounds! It’s a micro current machine that uses specific waveforms and ultra-low frequencies to transmit tiny electrical signals to boost muscle tone and skin tissue. It works in harmony with the body’s own bio-electrical field to help improve skin tone, texture and face shape.
What is a CACI facial?
The facial itself is an LED light therapy where warm, coloured light penetrates deep into the skin. Micro current facial toning is then combined with the light therapy to regenerate tissue and help repair collagen. The CACI facial can be described as a MOT for your face thanks to lymphatic drainage, peeling, cleansing and toning and it also works to banish deep lines, giving you the appearance of younger looking skin. Clever, right?
What machine is used?
All our CACI treatments use the CACI Ultimate Machine, as the name suggests this machine really is the ultimate aesthetic treatment system. It is the most versatile system available combining Microcurrent, Facial Toning, Crystal Free Orbital Microdermabrasion and LED light therapy.
How many CACI facials are available?
All CACI facials are high-tech and made to suit all skin types. We use 4 different facial treatments which we think offer the best results:
Non-Surgical Face Lift – CACI’s signature treatment refreshes the skin to enhance glow and leave you feeling and looking more youthful. The Non-Surgical Face Lift is a highly respected treatment with twenty years medical research behind it. An advanced non-invasive facial where microcurrent impulses will reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles improving the skins elasticity by toning the facial muscles and neck area.
Hydratone – Ideal for a special occasion or brides to be this treatment will deeply nourish and soothe the skin. Combining active microcurrent rollers with a unique, electrically conductive silicone gel mask that has been infused with powerful hydrating properties. The rollers gently massage the face causing the mask to become electrically charged so that the whole face is bathed with rejuvenating energy.
Ultimate Anti-Ageing Facial combined with the Murad method – For those with dull, dehydrated or ageing skin this treatment is designed to revitalise youth. The 90-minute treatment offers a combination of, intensive rapid peel, microcurrent and red and blue light therapy. Includes a gentle pinching action to bring blood to the surface of the skin and promote fullness. Finished with the CACI mask which is cooling and soothing. An amazing pain free alternative to Botox and surgery.
Double Chin/jowl Lift – Double chins are very similar to cellulite often appearing when you reach your middle-aged years. This treatment uses Quad Probes specifically developed to target the muscles around the jaw line. These Probes emit tiny electrical impulses to lift, firm and redefine facial contours.
What do I need to know before and after a CACI facial?
Prior to your CACI facial you will receive a consultation so that your therapist can help establish the results you want and the possible outcomes with your chosen treatment.
Most treatments last around 75 minutes (ultimate lasts 90 mins), depending on your chosen facial and will feel warm and energizing.
For optimum results, a course of 8/10 treatments is recommended followed by monthly maintenance sessions. Sharon highlights ‘if you wish to change your skin it is important to have the treatments weekly followed by monthly appointments to help maintain the results you desire.’
