- If you wear piercings on your face, remove
the piercings before you use the appliance or
make sure that you do not use the appliance
on or near the piercing.
- If you wear jewelry or glasses, take them off
before you use the appliance or make sure
you do not use the appliance on or near the
jewelry or glasses.
- Do not use the appliance with self-made
cleansers or cleansers containing harsh

- VisaPure cleanses your skin deeply and
stimulates blood circulation. If your skin is
used to the treatment, you may experience
slight skin reactions like redness or skin
tightness on occasion. If your skin is not used
to the treatment, these reactions may be
stronger and can last longer, but should
disappear after some hours. To reduce these
skin reactions, you can shorten the treatment
time, reduce the treatment frequency and/or
apply less pressure on the skin during
treatment.
After 2 weeks of daily usage, your skin should
have adapted to treatment with VisaPure.
However, if you still experience strong skin
reactions after 2 weeks of daily usage, we
advise you to stop using VisaPure and give
your skin some time to recover. You can
continue your treatment once the skin
reactions have disappeared, using reduced
treatment time and frequency. If the strong
skin reactions reoccur, we advise you to
contact your doctor.
- We advise you to not cleanse your skin
longer than 1 minute at a time, to prevent
overtreatment.
- Use a hairband or hair clips to avoid your hair
getting caught in the rotating parts.
General
- Please note that the condition of the skin varies throughout the year.
Facial skin can get dryer during the winter season. In that case you can
reduce the treatment time or frequency, depending on the needs of your
skin.
- The appliance cannot be used directly from the wall socket.

lifetime for the appliance.
