CACI - 'The Original Non-Surgical Facelift'.

 

CACI is the result of 20 years of research in micro current therapy originally developed to treat sport injuries. The CACI treatment is totally painless, completely safe and non invasive. It is the refining of the original treatment developed and patented by Californian doctors, Thomas Wing and Charles Goodhart, for use on soft tissue injuries such as whiplash, muscle strain and sprains suffered by top and elite athletes.

CACI stands for Computer Aided Cosmetology Instrument and was developed for the cosmetic market using micro current technology. The benefits of micro current therapy already renowned in the sports world  makes CACI a natural collaborator in the preventative of sagging facial muscles and a significant cosmetic treatment, and major break through, in the anti-aging movement that is both affordable and achievable in delivering results. See below the convincing benefits of micro-current therapy.

 

Benefits of Micro-Current

INCREASES ADENOSINE TRI PHOSPHATE LEVELS (A.T.P.) by up to 500% This is a chemical reaction in the body, which provides muscle and body energy, giving a feeling of well being.

INCREASES FIBROBLASTIC ACTIVITY by up to 60% Fibroblast cells are responsible for producing collagen in the skin. As we age, the collagen levels decrease, showing more signs of ageing. By increasing fibroblastic activity, we can soften lines and rehydrate the skin . This allows the skin to become more moisture retentive, leaving a wonderful glow.

INCREASES PROTEIN SYNTHESIS by up to 73% Muscles are largely made up of protein By increasing protein synthesis, the muscle becomes more ‘plumped up’ and rejuvenated. Elastin is also another form of protein and again the production of it is increased, leaving the skin’s appearance refined and improved with softened lines and wrinkles.

INCREASES MEMBRANE TRANSPORT (CELL PERMEABILITY) by up to 30-40% When the body ages, cells become less permeable so various functions in the body slow down. Increasing the cell permeability is very successful for treating cellulite. The skin is more moisture retentive and is also rehydrated. In simple terms, this will then help to absorb more nutrients, water and oxygenated blood, in order to excrete more toxins, fluid retention, and re-oxygenate.

IT IS VIRTUALLY SUBSENSORY Due to the low current used, the client feels very little if anything at all.

IT HAS BENEFICIAL HEALING EFFECTS It helps to heal scars and blemishes and to give a wonderful glow on the skin.

THERE IS NO VISIBLE MUSCLE CONTRACTION Unlike a faradic type of current, there is no stimulation of motor points and subsequent muscle contraction. Therefore, the sensation of the treatment is very comfortable and relaxing.

IT CAN BE USED AROUND THE EYE AREA With many electrical treatments, it is not possible to work close to the eye area. This is certainly an area which bothers most of us , therefore a big advantage with the CACI MICRO-MODE is that we are able to work intensively around the eyes. This is because of the low current and the fact that there is no muscle contraction.

 

 

How does it work?

CACI  uses a tiny micro current, which helps to tone, lift and re-educate the muscles back to their original position. The face has over thirty muscles that lie directly below, and are connected to, the skin's surface. When muscles are stimulated they either contract (shorten) or expand (lengthen). It is the direction of the stimulus that determines which reaction takes place and this will be dictated by the positioning of the probes over the muscles.

In either case, proper firmness is re-established through the non-surgical procedure by correcting the sagging muscle, which in turn corrects the sag of the skin. The treatment also stimulates blood circulation, which helps improve muscle tone and counteract dryness.  

Although gentle, safe and subtle, the CACI treatment produces powerful results; redefining natural contours and facial features, such as jawline and cheek bones, rejuvenating skin texture, softening wrinkles and improving fine lines. The micro current process reduces puffiness around the eyes by improving lymphatic drainage. It also boots collagen and elastin levels whilst increasing protein synthesis and cell renewal. By improving circulation, the process promotes healing and you will notice your complexion gaining an easy rosy tone, giving it a refreshed, radiant and healthy look. The process reduces results even on your first visit.

CACI works in harmony with the body’s own bio-electrical field. The body works from electrical impulses and the impulses provided by CACI are very similar, therefore the current is virtually sub-sensory. The client feels very little if anything at all. There is no visible muscle contraction, so therefore skin and muscle tissue respond very quickly to this type of stimulation.

Treatments, generally run as a course of treatments, averaging between 10 and 15 treatments. Some clients will need more and some clients will require less; this will depend on the client’s skin tissue and their muscle tone. It will not depend on the client’s age! On completion of one course another course isn’t necessary, providing that the client returns for a booster / maintenance treatment, which on average is once a month or between 4 – 6 weeks.

 

More history ...

It was approximately 1991, when CACI first appeared in England and was given the name the non-surgical face-lift. Previously, the CACI system had only been used in the sports field for muscular injuries. CACI applications are also widely used in hospital burn units such as the Wellington Hospital, North London and by many physiotherapists for pain relief.

The CACI machine took both Britain and America by storm, used in top beauty salons including London's Harrods salon, Champneys Health Farm an the Elizabeth Arden Red Door salons across the states. The perennially youth Cliff Richards admits to using this revolutionary treatment as an alternative to undertaking drastic surgery. Mel Gibson, Olivia Newton John and Paul Mccartney are other personalities believed to use the CACI method to look and feel younger.

CACI (pronounced 'casey') made its debut in Castle Hill, NSW  Australia in September, 1995 and has enjoyed a steadfast clientele dating back to this time. The loyalty received over the years we believe stems from the trust in the CACI treatment itself and the results it delivers. 

  

 

 

When should you start CACI?

 

Up until now, CACI has been a well kept secret by women but not anymore. It's important to note, CACI treats the facial muscles and is not age or gender specific, meaning, it's for everyone. Men can and do have this treatment too.

 

CACI is like taking your face to the gym, literally, so ... why not start now, either as a preventative anti-ageing method or to delay the years from advancing further? One thing for sure ... you'll always look your personal best with CACI and we have the  clients, some in their 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's & 70's who have achieved this as well an agelessness. Imagine that?
