Microcurrent or CACI Facials

Who has experience with these? I got a CACI facial last week and while the microdermabrasion part was nice and left my skin feeling smooth, I'm not so sure about the microcurrent or lifting effect.

Immediately after the session when I looked in the mirror there was a noticable improvement and my face looked more lifted and less sagging and depression lines. Though literally by that night before I went to sleep when I looked in the mirror I looked WORSE than I did before the facial. My NL lines looked deeper and longer and more etched in and my jowl area looked bad. The only thing that kept up was my eyes, they still looked lifted.

I understand that I need a series of the facials like they told me which is why I had already booked the next one. And I understood that the results would probably not last more than a few days. Though the same day looking worse than before? It did not seem like she did it wrong, I felt her lifting strongly up and outward. So why would it make my NL's worse?

Is it something that looks worse before it gets better? Cause I never heard of that with the CACI or microcurrents and I don't know if I should go to the next session or cancel it. I'm scared now.

I like microcurrent facials and I believe that they work. My face is tighter and has a nice glow.

I have a bt-Nano micro current machine and I definitely see a difference when I use it regularly, about once a week. I believe it toned facial muscles by using those low frequency electrical currents thus the lifting effect. I do get lazy and forget to use it and the effects will fade away. I need to be more diligent with my use to keep my results.

Firstly CACI is micro current. I have done micro current various machines for around 22 years. I have never had anyone look worse after. The initial lifting effect should continue for the first 24 hours on first treatment and last 48 to 60 hours. I wonder if she perhaps used product while lifting or using machine this can make the skin heavy. CACI is only to be used with water nothing else. Is your person actually CACI trained thats what I would check.

CACI sounds convenient. I don't like buying gel all the time. Yes, microcurrent is perfect before a night out to look fresh and tighter.
