THE Ritz-Carlton

Spa, Hong Kong

has introduced

non-invasive CACI

treatments from the

leading UK anti-

ageing developer,

enhanced by 111Skin products for immediate results.

The CACI system uses microcurrent therapy in which tiny

electrical impulses mirror the body’s bioelectrical field. The

technology softens lines and wrinkles while stimulating

the production of collagen and elastin, achieving dramatic

toning, lifting and firming effects. Three treatments are

available, from the 60-minute Youth Generating Facial (from

HK$1,580/US$202) to the 90-minute full body Ultimate

Turnaround (from HK$2,880/US$368).
