the result. This is particularly important
if you are a diabetic because you may
suffer from desensitisation of the skin,
which can lead to injuries.

pose.

appliance when you are distracted or
don’t feel well.

A. Disc for filing and trimming nails :
Even thick, hardened nails can be shaped
up and filed with this attachment. Regular
use makes the nails firmer so they do not
split as easily. Suitable for use on fingernails and toenails.
B. Polishing disc :
for smoothing and rounding the nail edges
after filing and for polishing the nail surface.
C. Cuticle pusher :
for loosening and pushing back hardened
cuticles and for cleaning the nails.
D. Wide manicure stem :
for treating and polishing cornified toenails.
E. Fine cylinder polisher :
for removal of calluses and "corns". Carefully let the attachment glide over the areas
to be treated. After the treatment, bath the
feet and apply a moisture cream or lotion.
