Philips VisaCare Mikrodermabrasion - Manual (Page 10)

Preparing for use
Make sure you have charged the appliance for 8 hours before you use it
for the first time.
Preparation
Always clean and gently dry your face until it is completely dry.
Note: The appliance is intended for dry use only. Do not use it on a wet face or
in the shower or bathtub.
Application tips
VisaCare comes with two different treatment tips:
- ’Normal’ tip for regular treatment.
- ’Sensitive’ tip for mild treatment.
We advise you to use the ‘Sensitive’ treatment tip during the first
treatments to see how your skin reacts. If the skin reacts well to the
‘Sensitive’ tip, you can try the ‘Normal’ treatment tip. See chapter
‘troubleshooting’ for normal and adverse skin reactions.
Note: Use the QR-code on the front cover or follow the link to watch the online
video for instructions on correct use of the appliance.
Using the appliance
Note: Use the appliance twice a week. Using the appliance more often may
cause skin irritation.
1 Press the on/off button to switch on the appliance.
2 When you use the appliance for the first time, test the treatment tip
on your forearm before you use it on your face. Make a pass with
the appliance 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 treatment tip before use to see if it is damaged. A
damaged treatment tip scratches your skin. If the treatment tip is damaged, replace it.
Note: Do not use the appliance without the treatment tip as this does not
benefit your skin and may cause an unwanted skin reaction.
3 Put the treatment tip on your face in such a way that you feel the
suction. Make sure there is always full skin contact between the
treatment tip and the area to be treated. However, do not press the
treatment tip hard onto the skin’s surface.
4 Gently move the treatment 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 other hand to stretch and hold the skin and move the appliance
away from your hand. This makes it easier to achieve proper suction,
especially on the temples and cheeks.
See facial map in the back of the user manual for detailed instructions on
how to move the appliance across your face.
Do not move the appliance over large moles, tattoos, port wine stains or
permanent makeup.
