At the clinic, we work with two different technologies for facial treatment: microcurrent and EMS. Both methods stimulate the facial muscles, but in different ways and with different purposes.
All Facegym treatments are performed using CACI Synergy S.P.E.D., an advanced English microcurrent system.
CACI works with computer-controlled microcurrent that specifically activates the muscles and connective tissue in the face. The treatment supports the skin's natural function and is used to work on elasticity, shape, and muscle tone in the face.
The treatment is non-invasive and provides gradual, natural improvements over time.
EMS treatments are performed using the Spanish I-Face system, which works with electrical muscle stimulation.
Specially developed pads are placed over the largest muscle groups in the face. The impulses activate the muscles over a longer period of time, typically around 20 minutes, and the treatment covers the entire face.
EMS has a lower intensity than microcurrent, but works more continuously over larger areas and is often used as a supplement in a course of treatment.
Microcurrent and EMS can be used separately or combined, depending on the skin's needs and the desired focus. The choice of treatment is always based on an individual assessment.
You can get a trial treatment in both systems so you can see what works best for you.
Microcurrent therapy is a Nobel Prize-winning and clinically proven treatment method that rehabilitates the muscles.
The method was first used to treat Bell's palsy (facial paralysis) and muscle paralysis after strokes. It was then discovered that the treatment made patients look younger.
The treatment does not hurt. However, you may feel EMS a little more than Facegym, but it still does not hurt. And the treatment will always be tailored specifically to you.
Facegym primarily works with manual activation of the facial muscles combined with microcurrent, while EMS uses electrical muscle stimulation via pads. Both methods stimulate the muscles, but in different ways and with different focuses.
Microcurrent works with very low electrical impulses that support muscle activity and the skin's natural function. The treatment is targeted and used to work on elasticity, shape, and muscle tone in the face.
EMS stimulates the larger muscle groups in the face via electrical impulses, which activate the muscles over a longer period of time. The treatment covers the entire face and is often used as a supplement in a course of treatment.
The choice depends on your skin's needs and your goals. Some people benefit most from Facegym, others from EMS, and in many cases a combination gives the best results. This is assessed individually during a consultation.
Many people experience improvements after 6–10 treatments in a regular course. Results build up gradually and are best maintained with continuity.
Some people experience increased radiance or a slight tightening sensation after the first treatment. However, the more stable and visible effect is achieved over time with repeated treatments.
The treatments are non-invasive and provide natural, gradual improvements. They do not replace surgical procedures if you need more drastic results.
Yes, treatments are performed using professional equipment and are tailored to each individual. Any contraindications are always assessed before treatment.
EMS is not recommended for certain medical conditions, pregnancy, or pacemaker use. This is always clarified before treatment.
