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 (Fig. 6).
2 Remove the treatment tip from the appliance. (Fig. 9)
3 Clean the treatment tip under the tap with hot water and some washing-up liquid. If the
exfoliation ring is dirty, let the tip soak in hot water with washing-up liquid for 5-10 minutes.
You can use the brush to clean it. Make sure you clean the filter with the treatment tip
upside down to rinse off any dirt left in the filter. Dry the treatment tip with a lint-free towel
or let it air-dry (Fig. 10).
4 Clean the handle with a damp cloth (Fig. 11).
5 Place the dry treatment tip back onto the appliance.
6 Wipe the charging stand with a damp cloth.
Danger: Always keep the adapter and the charging stand dry. Never rinse them under the tap or
immerse them in water.
Clean the treatment tip after every use for hygienic reasons and to prevent clogging of the filter.
Only use washing-up liquid or an alcohol solution (max. 70%) to clean the treatment tip.
Storage
Store the appliance with the treatment tip attached in the charging stand or pouch.
Note: Do not store a wet treatment tip on the appliance or in the pouch.
Replacement
A worn and abrasive structure could lead to skin irritation. therefore the treatment tip should be
replaced every 6 months or earlier if the abrasive structure is deformed or damaged.
Replacement tips are available on our website. The treatment tip can be identified by the product
code. You can find this code on the inside of the treatment tip.
