Note: Always visually check the treatment tip before use to see if it is damaged.
A damaged treatment tip scratches your skin. If the treatment tip is damaged,
replace it.
Note: Do not use the appliance without the treatment tip as this does not
benefit your skin and may cause an unwanted skin reaction.
3 Put the treatment tip on your face in such a way that you feel the
suction. Make sure there is always full skin contact between the
treatment tip and the area to be treated. However, do not press the
treatment tip hard onto the skin's surface.
4 Gently move the treatment tip in straight lines. Start on the chin,
and then move to the cheeks, forehead and nose. Make sure you
treat all areas.
Tip: Use your other hand to stretch and hold the skin and move the appliance
away from your hand. This makes it easier to achieve proper suction, especially
on the temples and cheeks.
Do not move the appliance over large moles, tattoos, port wine stains or
permanent makeup.
Do not treat the skin below or above the eyes, as it is thin and delicate.
When you treat fine lines on the side of the eye, put a finger of the
other hand in the corner of the eyelid and move the appliance away from
the finger towards the temple.
Note: Do not hold the treatment tip in one spot when you have placed it on
the skin.
5 Depending on the condition of your skin, start to treat each area
2-4 times. When your skin is used to the treatment, increase to
4-6 passes or start to use the normal treatment tip. When you use
the normal treatment tip, start to treat each area 3-4 passes. When
your skin is used to the treatment, increase to 4-6 passes.
6 When you have treated all areas, press the on/off button to switch
off the appliance. A complete treatment takes approximately 5 minutes.
Depending on your skin type, you may experience a warm and tingling
sensation and your skin may become slightly red. This is only a temporary
effect that should diminish within 5-10 minutes.
Tip: In areas where full skin contact is harder to achieve, such as the forehead,
try different ways of holding the appliance. Try vertical and horizontal
movements to find the best way to establish proper contact with your skin.
You can also hold your hand still and move your head instead.
If you suspect damage to the appliance (such as after a drop or bump),
examine the treatment tip carefully. If the tip is damaged, replace it.
Do not use a damaged treatment tip, as this may cause scratches.
After treatment
After the treatment, apply a nourishing mask, day cream or night cream and
make sure you use sun protection when you go outside. Do not use any other
method of mechanical or chemical exfoliation for 3 days. Do not undergo
electrolysis, facial waxing or use depilatories within 3 days after you have used
the appliance. You can apply make-up immediately after the treatment.
