Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips! To fully benefit
from the support that Philips offers, register your product at
www.philips.com/welcome.
What is VisaCare Prestige and how can it help your skin?
When your skin is young, it renews itself fast, the skin is firm, elastic and
bright. With time, the metabolism of the skin slows down. For instance, in the
morning, sleep mark recovery slows down - a sign that skin is losing
elasticity and volume. Nothing can stop time, but there are ways to maintain
your beauty and youthfulness longer.
Everybody knows that exercising regularly keeps your body fit and toned. In
much the same way, your skin can become firmer and brighter if you give it a
regular stimulating work-out, bringing oxygen and nutrients to skin cells.
That is why we have developed VisaCare Prestige: your daily facial workout
device to address two major signs of aging – loss of firmness and dull
complexion.
You can use VisaCare Prestige in the comfort of your own home to enjoy
firmer feeling, brighter looking skin.
Ready to get started? Use VisaCare Prestige at home every day to enjoy real
and visible results.
How Philips VisaCare Prestige works
Philips VisaCare Prestige offers a DualAction Air Lift & Exfoliation system,
which massages and exfoliates at the same time. Two tailored tips (Firming
and brightening tip) work with different intensities to specifically address the
anti-aging needs of your skin:
-
Firmer feeling skin: The Firming tip stimulates a deeper level of the skin
where collagen is produced. It helps the skin to produce more skin cells
and to thicken the epidermis. Use it twice a week.
-
Youthful complexion: The brightening tip gently removes the top layer of
dead skin cells where melanin accumulates. It stimulates blood
circulation for a youthful, rosy glow today and tomorrow. Use it daily.

-
Do not use the device more than once a day.

VisaCare Prestige enhances the absorption of your creams and
facial masks. Due to this enhanced uptake, a negative skin reaction
can occur. The advice is to not change between creams during the
first 2-4 weeks of using VisaCare Prestige. 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 you apply it on the skin on which you used VisaCare
Prestige. When you start to use the device, or when you restart
after discontinuing for more than 2 weeks, begin again with the
Brightening tip. This will allow your skin to once again become
used to the device.

Charging
Charging the appliance
Note: You can use the appliance before the battery is fully charged.
However, its performance and operating time will not be optimal in this
case.
Note: Charging normally takes approximately 8 hours. When the appliance is
fully charged, it has a cordless operating time of up to 30 minutes.
1 Make sure the appliance is switched off.
10
English
2 Insert the small plug in the socket of the charging stand and insert the
adapter in the wall socket.
3 Put the appliance in the charging stand.
-
The charging light flashes white to indicate that the appliance is charging.
-
When the battery is fully charged, the charging light lights up white
continuously. After approx. 30 minutes, the charging light goes out to
save energy.
'Battery low' indication
When the battery is almost empty, the charging light flashes amber for 4
seconds during use and after you have switched off the appliance. The
battery still contains enough energy for a complete 5-minute session. When
the battery is completely empty, the device switches off automatically and
the charging light flashes amber very quickly.
Preparing for use
Always clean your face before you use VisaCare Prestige. Depending on
your preference, use the device on a dry or wet face.
11
English
Note: The device is intended for use on a dry face or a face moistened with
water. Do not use it in combination with a facial mask, (scrub) cream or
similar products, as this may clog the device.
Wet use
This device is made to be used on wet skin. You can moisten your skin with
some water before use. You can decide for yourself whether you prefer to
use the device on wet or dry skin, both types of usage make your skin feel
firmer, but the tip glides over wet skin more easily for a more pleasant and
gentle experience.
The device can only be used on a clean skin. Make sure you rinse your face
thoroughly after using foam, cleansers or other skincare products for
optimal performance and a longer lifetime.
Tip: If your skin is dry before the end of the session, apply some more water
to your skin to make the tip glide over the skin more easily again.
Warning: Do not use the device in the shower or in the bath.
To make sure your VisaCare Prestige works optimally on wet skin, the device
is equipped with a smart system that is activated when a lot of water is
inside. As a result the device might produce an intermittent humming sound
until the conditions are optimal again to continue usage on wet skin. This is
normal and ensures that you can use the device on wet skin. It does not
have any impact on your skin or your device.
Water may drip from the socket at the bottom of the device when you use it
on a wet face. This is normal and not dangerous.
Using the device
Warning: Always check the tip before use to see if it damaged. If
the tip is damaged, replace it. Do not use a damaged tip, as this
may cause injury.
Warning: Do not move the device over large moles, tattoos, port
wine stains or permanent makeup.
First time use
Skin test
Before you use the device on your face for the first time, we advise you to
test the tip on your inner forearm before you use it on your face.
12
English
1 Put the Brightening tip on the handle.
2 For wet use: apply some water to your inner forearm.
3 Press the on/off button to switch on the device.
4 Make a pass on your inner forearm and then wait for approximately one
hour.
If a possible skin reaction diminishes within one hour, you can safely use the
tip on your face.
First use on the face
Note: When you use the device for the first time we advise you to use the
Brightening tip and to make just 2 passes. If you don't experience any skin
reactions and your skin is used to the device, you can increase the number
of passes. Never make more than 4 passes with the Brightening tip and 6
passes with the Firming tip.
1 Put the Brightening tip on the handle.
13
English
2 For wet use: apply some water to your face.
3 Press the on/off button to switch on the device.
4 Put the tip on your cheek in such a way that you feel the suction.
Make sure there is always full skin contact between the tip and the skin.
However, do not press the tip hard onto the skin’s surface.
5 Gently move the tip in a straight line up towards your temple and then
wait for approximately one hour.
If a possible skin reaction diminishes within one hour, you can safely use the
tip on your whole face (see 'General use').
Selecting the right tip
VisaCare Prestige comes with two different tips:
-
Brightening tip for daily use
-
2-4 passes per area
-
Gentle exfoilation and massage
-
Mild/gentle airlift
The brightening tip gently removes top layer of dead skin cells where
melanin accumulates. It stimulates blood circulation for youthful, rosy
glow.
-
Firming tip for more intense use twice a week
-
maximum usage: 2 times a week
-
4-6 passes per area (start with 2-4 passes)
-
more intense exfoliation and massage
-
stronger airlift
Use the Firming tip to stimulate a deeper level of the skin where collagen
is produced. It helps the skin to produce more skin cells and thicken the
epidermis, for bouncy and elastic skin.
14
English
We advise you to use the brightening tip during the first session to see how
your skin reacts. If the skin reacts well to the Brightening’tip, you can try the
Firming tip.
Tip: For optimal results you can use the Firming tip twice a week and the
Brightening tip on all other days. So this means you use the Brightening tip
every day except the days on which you use the Firming tip.See the
example weekly schedule below:
Day
Tip used
Monday Brightening tip
Tuesday Brightening tip
Wednesday Firming tip
Thursday Brightening tip
Friday Brightening tip
Saturday Brightening tip
Sunday Firming tip
Warning: Never use both tips on the same day, because this may
cause skin irritation. After you have used one of the tips, wait until
the next day before you use the other tip.
Warning: Do not use the Firming tip one week before you are
going to be exposed to extensive sunlight (for example if you go
on a sunny holiday). When summer starts, we advise to use only
the Brightening tip for a while.
General use
Note: For a maximum effect, use the appliance every day. Do not use the
appliance more often, as this may cause skin irritation.
Warning: If you suspect damage to the appliance (such as after a
drop or bump), check the tip carefully. If the tip is damaged,
replace it. Do not use a damaged tip, as this may cause injury.
Tip: We recommend using the appliance in the evening to avoid possible
skin reactions from being visible during the day. Mild redness and a warm
tingling sensation are normal and should disappear within 1 hour.
15
English
1 Put the preferred tip on the appliance.
Note: Do not use the appliance without the tip as this does not benefit
your skin and may cause an unwanted skin reaction.
2 For wet use: apply some water to your skin.
3 Press the on/off button to switch on the appliance.
4 Put the tip on your chin in such a way that you feel the suction. Make
sure these is always full contact between the tip and the skin. However,
do not press the tip hard onto the skin’s surface.
5 Gently move the tip in straight lines. See the first illustration of how to use
the appliance on facial zones on the fold-out page at the back of this
manual.
Note: Do not keep the tip on the same spot when you have placed it on
the skin.
Tip: Use your other hand to stretch and hold the skin and move the
appliance away from your hand. This makes it easier to achieve proper
suction, especially on the temples and cheeks.
6 Start using the appliance on the chin, and then move to the cheeks,
forehead, nose and temples. Make sure you pass the device over all
areas. Check the illustration of facial zones at the back of this manual.
Warning: Do not use the appliance on the skin below or above the eyes,
as it is thin and delicate. When you use the appliance on the fine lines on
the side of the eyes, put a finger of the other hand in the corner of the
eyelid and move the appliance away from the finger.
7 Depending on the type of tip and the condition of your skin, pass the
appliance over each area a number of times:
16
English
-
First use: pass the daily tip over each area 1 or 2 times.
-
After several uses: pass the daily tip over each area 3 to 4 times, or
pass the normal tip over each area 2 times.
-
For optimal results: pass the daily tip over each area 4 times or pass
the normal tip over each area 6 times.
8 When you have treated all areas, press the on/off button to switch off
the appliance. A complete session normally does not take more than 5
minutes.
9 During and after the session, you will experience the stimulating
massaging action of the Air Lift System™, which stimulates the blood
circulation.
Tip: In areas where full skin contact is harder to achieve, such as the
forehead, try different ways of holding the appliance. Explore vertical and
horizontal movements to find the best way to establish proper contact
with your skin. You can also hold your hand still and move your head
instead.
After treatment
After the session, apply a nourishing mask, moisturizer, day cream or night
cream. After each session, apply a sunscreen with a sun protection factor
(SPF) of 30 or higher on the treated areas for a minimum of 3 days.
Warning: take into account the following actions for the next 3 days after
you have used the device:
-
Do not use any other method of mechanical or chemical exfoliation.
-
Do not undergo electrolysis, facial waxing or use depilatories.
You can apply make-up immediately after you have used the device.
Cleaning and maintenance
Warning: Do not immerse the appliance in water.
Warning: Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents or
aggressive liquids such as petrol or acetone to clean the handle or
tips.
Note: Clean the tip after every use for hygienic reasons and to prevent
clogging of the filter. Only use washing-up liquid or an alcohol solution (max.
70%) to clean the tip.
17
English
1 Switch off the device.
2 Remove the tip from the appliance.
3 Clean the tip under the tap with hot water (max. 70°C) and some

Tip: If the exfoliation ring is dirty, let the tip soak in hot water with
washing-up liquid or in alcohol solution for 5-10 minutes.
Note: Clean the filter of the tip upside down to rinse off any dirt left in the
filter.
4 Dry the tip with a lint-free towel or leave it to air dry. Place it back onto
the handle when it is dry.
5 Clean the handle under the tap (max. 40ºC).
Note: Only use water to clean the handle.
6 Dry the handle with a dry cloth.
7 Clean the charging stand with a moist cloth.
Danger: Keep the adapter and the charging stand dry. Never immerse
them in water or rinse them under the tap.
Storage
Store the appliance with the tip attached in the charging stand or pouch.
Tip: Leave the tip you use most often on the device, and store the other tip
in the pouch to help you stick to your usage plan.
Note: Do not store a wet tip on the device or in the pouch.
Note: It is harmless to store a slightly wet handle on the charging stand.
18
English
Replacement
For optimal results, it is recommended to replace the Firming tip (SC6891,
with the text "2x/week" inside the tip) every six months and Brightening tip
(SC6895, with the text "Daily" on the tip) every two months (or earlier if the
abrasive structure is deformed or damaged). Replacement tips are available
on our website.
