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.
With VisaPure Advanced you will enjoy a range of benefits to reveal a
radiant, revitalized and refreshed skin. Thanks to Intelligent Head
Recognition, the appliance recognizes which head you put on and
automatically activates a customized DualMotion program, with
dedicated levels of rotation, duration and vibration. This means you
get great skincare results! VisaPure Advanced comes with a diverse
set of heads that can be easily integrated into your skincare routine.
You can use all heads with your current skincare products like
cleansers, creams, oils and serums. This user manual contains usage
instructions for the device and information about the recommended
cleansing process. In the box you find separate leaflets with usage
information and instructions for the other attachments.
Why cleansing?
Cleansing is an essential part of the daily skincare routine. VisaPure
Advanced cleanses your skin better compared to cleansing by hand*.
It cleanses your skin thoroughly and removes dead skin cells and
make-up. Through research we found out that your skincare products
will be absorbed better after you have used VisaPure Advanced.
Therefore your skin feels clean and soft after you used VisaPure
Advanced.
* Internal study performed in the Netherlands in 2015 with 15 women.

Features
Intelligent Head Recognition
VisaPure Advanced has Intelligent Head Recognition. Each
attachment that comes with VisaPure has specific levels of rotation
and vibration. When you attach a different intelligent attachment and
switch on the appliance, it recognizes the intelligent attachment. You
hear a beep and the intensity setting indications flash alternately. The
device then activates a customized program for the attachment in use
(Fig. 3).
Intensity settings
You can choose between 2 different intensity settings depending on
your personal preference.
- Intensity setting 1 for a gentle treatment (Fig. 4).
- Intensity setting 2 for an intensive treatment.
The first time you use the appliance, we advise you to select intensity
setting 1. If you do not experience any skin reactions, you can start
using the appliance at intensity setting 2.
Note: your skin might need to get used to the new treatment just
like it normally does with a new skincare product.
The intelligent attachments with NFC tag may require other treatment
settings. Consult the separate leaflets of the different attachments for
the advised treatment settings or visit www.philips.com
Skin zone timer
The skin zone timer indicates when you need to move the appliance
to another skin zone. For more information about skin zones, see
chapter 'Using the brush head'.

You can either use VisaPure Advanced in front of the sink or in the
shower. We advise you to use the brush head in combination with
your favorite cleanser. You can cleanse your face with VisaPure
Advanced twice a day. Other types of attachments may require other
treatment frequencies. Consult the separate leaflets of the different
types of attachments for the advised treatment frequencies or visit
www.philips.com/.
Facial cleansing with VisaPure Advanced
Skin zones
The face can be divided into two zones: the U-zone (cheeks, chin and
the area between nose and upper lip) and the T-zone (forehead and
nose). Always treat the zones one by one, in the following order (Fig.
5):
1Right cheek, chin and area between nose and upper lip
2Left cheek, chin and area between nose and upper lip
3Forehead and nose
Cleansing program
The cleansing program consists of 3 treatment periods of 15 to 20
seconds. The exact duration depends on the type of brush head you
have, so please consult the separate leaflets from your attachment
for the advised treatment periods. The treatment periods for VisaPure
Advanced intelligent brush heads are customized and vary from
person to person.

left cheek after 15 - 20 seconds. Use the last 15- 20 seconds to treat
the forehead and nose (Fig. 6).

for cleansing the neck and décolleté.

Troubleshooting
This chapter summarizes the most common problems you could
encounter with the appliance. If you are unable to solve the problem
with the information below, visit www.philips.com/support for a list
of frequently asked questions or contact the Consumer Care Center in
your country.
Problem Solution
I do not know if
the appliance is
suitable for use
on my skin.
Do not use the appliance on dry, chapped skin,
open wounds, healing wounds, skin recovering
from surgery or if you suffer from a skin disease
or skin irritation, such as severe acne, sunburn,
skin infection, skin cancer, inflammation,
eczema, psoriasis etc. Do not use the appliance
if you are taking steroid-based medication.
The appliance
does not charge.
Consult the chapter ‘Charging the appliance’ for
the correct placement into the charging stand.
Make sure the socket to which you connect the
appliance is live. Check whether contact pins on
the appliance are in proper contact with the
contact points in the stand. If you use a socket
in a bathroom cabinet, you may need to switch
on the light to activate the socket. If the charging
light on the appliance still does not light up or if
the appliance still does not charge, take it to
your Philips dealer or the nearest Philips service
center.
18 English

The appliance
does not work
anymore.
Make sure that you have pressed the on/off
button properly. Charge the appliance according
to the instructions in this user manual. Verify
whether there is a power failure and if the wall
socket is live. Check if the charging light on the
appliance lights up to make sure the appliance
is charging. If it does not light up or if the
appliance still does not work, take it to your
Philips dealer or the nearest Philips service
center.
I don’t know
which heads I can
use with VisaPure
Advanced.
All standard or intelligent cleansing brush heads,
the Revitalising Massage head and the Fresh
Eyes head can be used with VisaPure
Advanced. To find out more about the range of
VisaPure attachments consult our website
www.shop.philips.com or the shop where you
purchased your Philips VisaPure Advanced. If
you have any difficulties obtaining information
on replacement brush heads, please contact the
Philips Consumer Care Center in your country.
You find its contact details in the worldwide
guarantee leaflet. You can also visit
www.philips.com/support.
The brush head
feels too harsh on
my skin.
If you experience the brush head as too harsh,
we advise you to start using one of the brush
heads specially developed for sensitive or extra
sensitive skin. The Sensitive and Extra Sensitive
brush heads have softer bristles. We
recommend the Sensitive brush head for
sensitive skin and the Extra Sensitive brush head
for extra sensitive and dry skin. For the best
treatment for your sensitive skin, we advise you
to use the Intelligent Sensitive brush head.
Thanks to the NFC tag in the brush head, the
brush is programmed with lower levels of
rotation, vibration and duration that are tailored
to your delicate skin. Enjoy the benefits of a
customized brush head that is adapted to your
needs, with the intensity levels that are right for
your skin.
19
English

I don’t know with
which cleansing
products I can
use the brush
head.
We advise you to cleanse your skin with your
favorite cleanser. You can use cleansing gel,
foam, oil, milk or lotions. Please do not use
scrub cream or gel with particles.
Is the smart brush
head compatible
with all VisaPure
models?
The Intelligent brush is compatible with all
VisaPure models. However, we recommend to
use it with VisaPure Advanced, as thanks to the
Intelligent head recognition function in VisaPure
Advanced, the Intelligent brush will start a
customized cleansing program adjusted to your
skin needs. The Intelligent brush head can also
be used on VisaPure Essential, but the program
is similar to the program for standard brushes
and takes the regular 1 minute.
There are no extra benefits if the Intelligent
brush head will be used on VisaPure Essential.
What is the
difference
between a Smart
brush and a
standard brush?
The intelligent brush head has a NFC tag
incorporated in it, which makes it possible to
have customized programs for specific skin type
for you to achieve the best results for your skin
type. Thanks to the Intelligent head recognition
function in VisaPure Advanced, the Intelligent
brush head gets recognized by the appliance
and specific program with dedicated rotation,
vibration and program duration settings will
start. The standard brush head does not have a
NFC tag incorporated, and will always run on
the standard 1 minute program.
The Intelligent brush head is compatible with all
VisaPure models, but for optimal use we
recommend you to use it with VisaPure
Advanced to achieve the most benefits. The
standard brush head is compatible with both
VPA and VPE.
