Start with the instructions
Check the model, included accessories and conditions of use. Session length, frequency and mode should come from the instructions, not a video about a different mask. If the instructions are missing or an essential detail is unclear, ask for it before starting.
Make yourself comfortable
Prepare your skin as instructed and sit somewhere dry, away from water. Keep hair clear and adjust the straps without pressing tightly against your face. Use the eye protection specified for the model. Do not use the mask while asleep.
Keep the session simple
Follow the recommended settings and stop if you feel uncomfortable. Adding modes or extending the session does not guarantee a better result. Afterwards, switch the device off, allow it to cool if needed and clean it according to its instructions before putting it away.
