An array of factors are responsible for causing skin ailments, including pollution, ageing, stress, and UV radiation, but there are various ways in which you can help you to achieve healthier, younger-looking skin. At pamperbananaman, we understand the importance of the modern man taking pride in their appearance and have created a small guide to electrical facials, how they work and why they make a welcome addition to any man’s skincare routine.

 

 

 

 

 

Introducing CACI

 

Pamperbananaman utilises the latest innovations in skincare technology to provide our clients with top of the range treatments that will leave them with excellent results. Our CACI Ultimate is the most versatile treatment system on the market, combining microcurrent, facial toning, crystal free orbital microdermabrasion and led light therapy photostimulation.

 

How it works

 

CACI electric facials work by low electric currents passing through the face, which not only provides a therapeutic experience but also tones the muscles of the face, which results in a micro-lift, perfect for those seeking change. This king of facial is considered to be a ‘sculpting’ treatment, although it doesn’t cause any injury to the dermis.

 

During an electric facial, 32 different muscles are manipulated by your talented and professional therapist, who positions an array of wands on strategic, acupressure points around the face. These wands will deliver an electric current, while the treated area is stroked in strategic motions to firm skin, tone muscles and ionise nutrients that are located deep within the cells of the skin. This stimulatory action of the massager helps to break down fatty deposits, tone muscles for an instant face-firming effect.

 

How often do I need a treatment?

 

How often you will need a course of electric facials will depend on your requirements, and what you are expecting from the treatment. Usually, a course of 10-15 facials is recommended to encompass two facials per week, following it up with monthly appointments to maintain the toned look, keeping your muscles firmly in place.

 

Before a treatment

 

Unlike other, more invasive surgical procedures that accomplish similar results, there’s not much preparation required for an electric facial. In the run-up to your appointment, we recommend drinking plenty of water, keeping the skin hydrated and creating the optimum conditions for the electrical currents to work wonders. Other than that, you just need to give us a call to book your appointment, and you’re good to go!

 

Benefits

 

An electric facial treatment has multiple benefits for your skin, of which you will reap the benefits of in the weeks following your procedure. First and foremost, this includes the prevention of the ageing process, combating the wrinkles, sagging skin and fine lines that the modern man fears so much! It is the firming notion whereby muscles are tightened that help to prevent, or at least delay, these stereotypical and undesirable signs of ageing. Unlike the majority of anti-ageing products available on the high street, the rejuvenating nature of electrical facials are supported by a significant amount of scientific research. The University of Washington found that an electric facial can cause a 14% increase in the production of natural collagen, a 48% increase in the production of natural elastin and a 38% increase in blood circulation when regularly used over 20 days.

 

The relaxing nature of facials are also proven to help relieve stress, something that affects many working professionals in the 21^st-century in a way like never before. Massage and muscle relaxation in underused areas like the face are a great way to handle stress and move forward both at home and in the workplace.

 

Finally, men that undergo an electric facial are likely to experience a confidence boost thanks to the aesthetic improvements they provide. Treatment can effectively remove any infection that causes germs and bacteria from the skin, which will result in a complete detoxification, along with much healthier-looking skin. The enhanced rate of both elastin and collagen production promotes skin healing, particularly when it comes to acne scars and other lesions and the improved natural exfoliation process will contribute towards a softer, brighter face.

 

If you decide that an electric facial isn’t for you, fear not, we also offer a range of other facials that can achieve fantastic results! Our range of Comfort Zone facials offers the ultimate spa experience which will guarantee immediate and progressive results.
