How do I clean the Face Repair Device after use?

Immediate Answer: Rinse the silicone head under lukewarm water after every use. The silicone surface is naturally resistant to bacterial growth and easy to maintain clean—a quick rinse is sufficient for daily care.

The Science: Silicone has a low surface energy that makes it inherently resistant to biofilm formation (bacterial adhesion). Unlike fibre brushes that trap residue within their bristles and harbour bacteria, the Face Repair Device's solid silicone nubs don't trap product, making it significantly more hygienic with minimal maintenance.

Regular rinsing prevents cleanser and sebum residue from building up on the nubs, which could reduce their physical contact with your skin during cleansing sessions.

Cleaning steps:

1. Rinse the silicone head under lukewarm water—add mild liquid soap if needed
2. Wipe dry gently with a clean cloth
3. Store upright to allow air circulation

Avoid harsh detergents, disinfectant sprays, or abrasive cloths that could degrade the silicone over time.
