VisaCare enhances the absorption of your creams and facial masks. Due to
this enhanced uptake a negative skin reaction can appear. The advice is to
not change between creams during the first 2-4 weeks of use of VisaCare.
When you start to use a new cream after this period, first test this cream
on a small area. Do not continue to use this cream if there is a negative
skin reaction when applying it to the VisaCare treated skin. When starting
treatment, or restarting after discontinuing for more than 2 weeks, begin
again with the sensitive tip. This will allow your skin to once again become
used to the treatment.
Contraindications and other warnings
This appliance has been developed to address the first signs of facial
ageing. As the epidermal skin layer becomes thinner over the years due to
extrinsic and intrinsic factors, rough skin and signs of photodamage become
more prominent. The focus of this appliance is facial skin (excluding the
area underneath and above the eyes).
Do not use this appliance:
-
If you have skin infections, open wounds, rashes, burns, sunburn,
inflammation, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, active infections like herpes or
active acne breakouts in the areas to be treated.
-
If you have large moles, tattoos, port wine stains, permanent make-up
or any skin irritation in the areas to be treated.
-
If your skin is still recovering from a cosmetic procedure, such as
a chemical or mechanical peeling, laser resurfacing, fractional laser
treatment, or mesotherapy treatment or any other treatment with
dermal fillers in the past two weeks.
-
If you are taking medication that may affect your skin, such as steroids
or acne medication (Accutane, Isotretinoine or Roaccutane). Consult
your doctor.
-
If you have warts, do not try to erase them with this appliance. It can
spread the warts.
-
If you have scars, consult your doctor or dermatologist before you start
using the appliance.
-
In combination with any other home skincare system containing an
active peeling ingredient.
General advice
-
After each treatment it is advised to use a sun protection factor (SPF)

melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, actinic keratosis, melasma, systemic
lupus erythematosus, porphyria, coagulation abnormality and collagen
abnormalities such as keloid wounds, excessive scar formation or a
history of bad wound healing), consult your doctor before you start
using the appliance.
-
If you plan to enjoy the sun (e.g. summer holidays) we recommend that
you interrupt the treatment one week before the holidays and as long
as you are extensively exposed to the sun.
