- Prepare your skin: Only use on fully healed skin (usually 6–8 weeks post-op) and with clinician approval. Apply a thin layer of oil or cream — or use in the shower with body wash or oil for smoother gliding.
- Create suction: Gently squeeze the cup and place it on your skin to create light suction. Adjust pressure to what feels comfortable.
- Massage: Glide the cup slowly in upward, linear, or circular motions over the area for 2–5 minutes per zone. Skin may pink slightly but should not bruise. Stop immediately if you feel pain.
- Aftercare: To remove, pinch the rim — do not pull. Wash the cup with warm, soapy water and allow it to air-dry. Store in a clean, dry place.
- Frequency: Use 3–4 times per week for optimal results.

Softens scar tissue
Helps lift and smooth C-section or other surgical scars, improving flexibility and reducing the feeling of tightness over time
Relieves tightness & tension
Loosens restricted tissue and eases the pulling sensation often felt around scars, bringing more comfort to everyday movement.
Encourages healthy blood flow and circulation, giving your body the gentle boost it needs to heal naturally
Every body heals differently, but most mums begin to notice changes after just a few weeks of consistent use. With regular daily massage (around 2–5 minutes per area), you may start to see improvements in skin texture, tone, and flexibility in as little as 3 weeks. Over time, continued use can help further soften scar tissue, ease tightness, and support overall healing. Remember — gentle, consistent care is key, and results may vary depending on your individual recovery journey
You should only use the cup once your scar or skin is fully healed(usually 6–8 weeks post-birth or surgery). Always check with your midwife, GP, or specialist before beginning.
No — it shouldn’t hurt. You’ll feel a light pulling or suction, and your skin may turn slightly pink, but it should never be painful. If you feel discomfort, reduce the suction or stop.
No — this product is not designed for use during pregnancy. It’s intended for postpartum recovery and general scar care only.
For best results, use 2–5 minutes per area,3–4 times a week. Consistency is key, but always listen to your body and take it at your own pace.
It’s suitable for C-section and other surgical scars, as long as they are fully healed. Avoid use on open wounds, broken skin, active infections, or if you have conditions such as varicose veins or keloid scarring without medical approval.
Wash with warm, soapy water after each use, rinse well, and allow to air-dry. Store in a clean, dry place out of direct sunlight.
Gentle massage, powerful healing.
