What you need to know about
blockage and inflammation of
the facial sebaceous glands.

Above-average secretion by the
sebaceous glands leads to oily
skin. This over-activity is caused by
hormonal changes, especially dur­ing puberty, inappropriate high-fat
or high-protein diet, excessive con­sumption of alcohol, etc.
This over-production of sebum
causes the pores to widen. Oily
skin can have a shiny or dried
appearance, depending on whether
the flow of sebum into the pore has
an oily consistency or has already
dried within the follicle.
Oily skin is usually “impure”, because
it provides an excellent feeding
ground for bacteria. The oxygen sup­ply within a healthy pore normally
restricts the spread of bacteria. There
is a correlation between this bacterial
spread and a pore becoming visible
to the eye. If the pore becomes
blocked, the environment becomes
anaerobic (i.e. oxygen-free), ideal for
Propionibacterium acne, which
spreads like wildfire. This leads to
inflammation and blemishes.

Normal pore (See Figure 2-a)
A normal amount of oil is secreted
from the pore.

Blocked pore (See Figure 2-b)
Oil trapped in the pore oxidizes and
solidifies, causing clogged pores
and blackheads.

5

Blackheads should not be removed
by squeezing with fingertips or fin­gernails, as this can damage the
skin and cause further inflammation.
Cleansing two or three times a week
is recommended.

Charging your pore
cleanser

Before using the appliance for the
first time please charge it for at
least 12 hours. (See Figure 3)
Place the Charger upright on a flat
surface. Plug the Charger into an
AC outlet. It will adjust automatically
to voltages between 100-240 V AC.
In some areas, a special plug adap­tor may be required.
Switch the appliance off and place it
upright into the Charger with the
switch facing toward the front. When
the appliance is placed in the correct
position, the charge indicator light
will glow and stay on until the appli­ance is removed from the Charger.
You can fully charge the appliance in
12 hours if it seems losing its power.
A full charge will supply enough
power for about 20 minutes of usage.

Using your pore cleanser

This personal care product is
designed to remove blackheads on
the face and nose area by applica­tion of a slight amount of suction. It is
important that you exercise care
when using this product in order to
achieve satisfactory results and to

reduce the risk of breaking capillaries
beneath the skin surface. Depending
on your complexion, you may notice
purple spots or some skin discol­oration as you first learn to use this
product which will usually disappear
within two to three days. This is
dependent upon the length of time
you apply the suction on a particular
area of your face. If you are con­cerned about how your skin will
react, we suggest that you test the
product on a part of your face or
neck that is not normally exposed.

It is recommended that you first
start the application for no longer
than two seconds at each spot on
your skin, then gradually increase
the time to no more than ten sec­onds as you gain experience and
find the most suitable application
period. If discoloration occurs, dis­continue use of the product.

Do not use this product on pimples,
blemishes, sunburned or broken
skin or any skin inflammations.

• For best results the pores of the
skin should be well opened. For
this reason it is a good idea to per­form your skin care routine after a
bath or shower. The heat of the hot
water will tend to open your pores.
Always dry your face thoroughly
before using this appliance.

• For best results, use the appli­ance two or three times a week as
part of your skin care routine.

• Use your wrist in a rotating motion
to detach the reversible cups from

6

your skin.

1. Remove any make-up from your
face, leaving just bare skin.
Never use the appliance on
skin coated with cleansing
lotion or facial soap.

2. Add water to the Water Tank.
(See Figure 4)
Unplug the Cap and supply tap
water into the Water Tank, then
replace the Cap.

3. Attach the Wide Cup to the Cup
Socket, making sure that it is
facing outward. (See Figure 5)

4. Slide the Mist Switch to the “on”
position, then slide the Power
Switch to the “1” position.

• The Mist Nozzle will produce

a fine spray of water.

• If water drips from the face,

wipe it off with a towel or set
the Mist Switch to the “off”
position.

5. Move the appliance slowly
around the tip of the nose. (As
explained below and shown by
Figure 7.)

• Roughly cleanse the entire

surface of nose without focus­ing on any particularly spot.

6. Now turn the Power Switch off
and reverse the suction cup so
that the Point Cup is facing out­ward. Then turn it on again.
(See Figure 6)

7. Move the Point Cup over the
nose in the way described by
the arrows. (As explained below
and shown by Figure 7.)

8. Rinse your face, and apply mois­turizing lotion or any other skin
conditioner you normally use.

• Keep your face sufficiently

moisturized.

Around the tip and wings of the
nose (See Figure 7)

1. Move the cup all over the nose.

2. Limit use of the Wide Cup over the

whole nose to one minute or less.

3. Limit use of the Point Cup to two

minutes or less.
(Do not repeatedly move over the
wings of nostrils where the skin is
thin.)

Use only the Point Cup if you have
concerns about skin irritation.

2. Remove the suction cup, soak
the Suction Hole (Filter) in the
water, and turn the Power
