Notes for Use

What Can I Use the Appliance For?
The appliance is suitable for use on facial skin (apart from
the area around the eyes and the area around the lips).
Since, with the passing of years, the epidermal skin layer
becomes thinner due to inward and outward impact, coarse
skin and signs of light damage become noticeable. This
appliance was developed to counteract the first signs of
aging facial skin.
Use the appliance to clean, peel and massage your facial
skin. With regular use, you can achieve an improved
complexion.
What Should I Keep in Mind When Using the Appli-
ance?
• Do not use the appliance without an attachment.
• Test the attachment for damage before each use. Do
not use the appliance with a damaged, broken or dirty
attachment. A damaged attachment can injure your skin.
• To avoid damaging your skin or the appliance, do not use
creams, chemical or mechanical peelings in combination
with the appliance.
• Use the appliance a maximum of twice per week. More
frequent use can cause irritation of the skin.
• Do not use the appliance for skin protection too long.
Discontinue use immediately as soon as the first signs of
skin irritation appear.
• It is important that the appliance remain in constant
motion when in contact with the skin and that it not be
held in one place. This way, you avoid skin irritation or
even haematomas.
• Do not use the appliance when the face is wet, in the
bathtub or in the shower.
• In order to accelerate skin regeneration, do not use the
appliance for a purpose other than to massage and
gently remove the outer, dead skin layer.
• After using the appliance, your skin creams and face
masks will absorb better. Negative skin reactions
may nevertheless thereby occur. We recommend that
you do not change the cream you use during the first
2 - 4 weeks. If you use a new cream following this period,
test it first on a small area. If negative skin reactions
occur following use of the appliance, do not continue to
use this cream. Commence or recommence use of the
appliance following an interruption of more than 2 weeks.
• If you intend to enjoy the sun (e. g. during summer
vacation), we recommend that discontinue use one week
before the vacation, and for as long as you are exposed
to the sun.
• It's recommended that you put on sunscreen protection
for at least 3 days after each use (with a minimum sun
protection factor of 30).
