as this may cause skin irritation.

Press the on/off button to switch on the appliance.
2 When you use the appliance for the first time, test the tip on your forearm
before you use it on your face. Move the appliance over your skin once
and then wait for approximately one hour. If a possible skin reaction
diminishes, you can safely use the tip on your face.
Note: Always visually check the tip before use to see if it is damaged. A
damaged tip scratches your skin. If the tip is damaged, replace it.
Note: Do not use the device without the tip as this does not benefit your
skin and may cause an unwanted skin reaction.
3 Put the tip on your face in such a way that you feel the suction. Make
sure there is always full skin contact between the tip and the area to be
treated. However, do not press the tip hard onto the skin’s surface.
4 Gently move the 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 free hand to stretch and hold the skin. Move the device
away from your hand. This makes it easier to achieve proper suction,
especially on the temples and cheeks.

how to move the appliance across your face.
Note: Do not move the appliance over large moles, tattoos, port wine
stains or permanent makeup.
Note: Do not use the appliance on the skin below or above the eyes, as it
is thin and delicate. When you use the appliance on the fine lines on the
side of the eye, put a finger of the other hand in the corner of the eyelid
and move the device 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.
