1
Detach the tube from the syringe. Do not
remove the thimble cup from the tube.

Clean the two parts in warm, soapy water
and rinse under the tap.

agents when you clean the Niplette.

Using the Niplette
1
Push the syringe firmly into the open end of the
valve (Fig. 2).
2
Hold the thimble cup over the nipple with one
hand and apply suction by pulling the syringe
with the other hand (Fig. 3). Pull as firmly as is
comfortable. Do not pull too hard. A small
smear of lotion or cream at the base of the
Niplette will improve the seal and suction.
Warning: Start with minimal suction and
gradually increase the suction over time.
Reduce the vacuum level if you experience
pain. Excessive suction force applied to the
nipple could cause pain, blisters, swelling,
bleeding or discharge of fluid.
3
When the nipple has been pulled out, let go of
the Niplette by holding the valve and by
carefully separating the syringe from the valve
(Fig. 4).

You are now free to continue your daily
activities wearing the thimble cup and tube.
It is easily concealed under loose clothing.
You can also wear the Niplette overnight.

few hours and gradually increase the time
you are wearing it. Depending on the
duration of use, results can be expected
within 3–12 weeks.

To remove the Niplette, push the syringe into
the valve to release the vacuum.
