the appliance. A complete session 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.
Caution: If you suspect damage to the appliance (such as after a drop or
bump), examine the tip carefully. If the tip is damaged, replace it. Do not
use a damaged 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.
Caution: Do not immerse the appliance in water. Do not use chemicals to
clean the appliance.
Warning: Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive
liquids such as petrol or acetone to clean the handle or tips.
1 Make sure the appliance is switched off before you start cleaning it.
