prorelax dermo vacuum massager Instruction Manual

Dear prorelax® Customer,

congratulations on your purchase of the prorelax® vacuum massager.

The prorelax® Vacuum Massager is an appliance which allows you to have a suction massage (vacuum) of professional quality in the comfort and privacy of your own home. This appliance performs an intense and effective massage and it is extremely important that you read these instructions for use carefully; improper or excessive use or using it in the presence of a number of physiological conditions (see the paragraph ‘Warnings’) may cause the appearance of bruises due to the suction action on the skin. These bruises – due to improper use of the appliance – are temporary and will be naturally reabsorbed within a few days.

Subcutaneous suction massage:

Subcutaneous massage means a deep massage at the level of the hypodermis. The difference between this type of massage and a manual massage is based on the fact that a manual massage compresses the tissues towards the inside, while the prorelax suction massage is based on cutaneous suction with a consequent detachment of the tissues.

This technique has some very important consequences:

all the vessels that pass under the suctioned tissue are opened. This means an increase in blood flow and lymphatic circulation, helping to create an important purifying effect and supplying the tissues with nutrients.
suction helpsto loosen skin tissue and the outermost layer of fat cells also begin to be broken down.
The skin begins to look younger and healthier.

The suction massage by prorelax® carries out a deep massage from the inside out, generating the mobilization of the fats present in the skin cells. The massage also activates the process of lipolysis, that leads to the reduction of solid fats. The massage causes increased blood flow: the blood supplies more oxygen and other nutrients, draining off the fluids present in the tissue.

Before using this product, please read these instructions carefully and keep this manual for future reference.

Instructions for use

Treatment with the appliance helps with the reduction of fatty cells (cellulite) and improves the appearance and tone of the skin, eliminating superfluous fat, obtaining a slimmer figure and improving the functioning of the lymphatic drainage system.

The treatment will be more effective if combined with the use of cosmetics for the body and essential oils. To cleanse the skin, the appliance should be used with a cleansing cream or lotion. Used for massaging the bust, the appliance helps to stimulate its enlargement due to the improvement in the blood circulation and the elimination of phenomena of retention.
Before treatment, remove make-up and/or have a shower. Do the treatment in relaxing surroundings and in a pleasant temperature. For greater effectiveness, use a cream, gel or lotion.
Select one of the three cups according to the part of the body to be treated:the small cup is for the body, the medium cup for the treatment of the surface of the body and the large cup for the massage of the abdomen, the back and the bust.
In case of treating the bust the elastic ring supplied must be fitted on to the cup!
Insert the cup by putting the end into the inlet hole of the appliance and rotate it in a clockwise direction until it stops. To remove the cup, repeat this operation in the reverse direction.
Important: replace the cups with care, avoiding excessive force!
A treatment of the face is also possible. For this you need a “mini suction cup, 15mm” (to acquire separately).
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT THE SUCTION POWER MUST BE ADJUSTED ACCORDING TO INDIVIDUAL SENSIBILITY.
FOR THE FIRST TREATMENTS, WE ALWAYS RECOMMEND SETTING THE POWER AT THE MINIMUM; THIS CAN BE GRADUALLY INCREASED ACCORDING TO YOUR SENSIBILITY, BUT ONLY THROUGH DIRECT EXPERIENCE.
HOWEVER, WE RECOMMEND NEVER USING THE APPLIANCE EXCESSIVELY OR TREATING THE SAME AREA FOR TOO LONG AS SUCTION COULD CAUSE THE APPEARANCE OF BRUISES WHICH, ALTHOUGH THEY ARE QUICKLY REABSORBED, MAY BE UNSIGHTLY.
