Page: 11 / 56

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.
Cleaning and maintenance
Do not immerse the appliance in water. Do not use chemicals to clean
the appliance. Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents or
aggressive liquids such as petrol or acetone to clean the appliance.
1 Make sure the appliance is switched off before you start cleaning it.
2 Remove the treatment tip from the appliance.
