HERPOTHERM

The Herpotherm® is a medical device which is capable of preventing the development of lip herpes when used at the appropriate time. No uncomfortable, unattractive blisters and no sensation of sores will occur in the lip area. The instrument in lipstick form is small and compact and can be easily carried around for handy use any time. Everyone, regardless of gender or age, can use the Herpotherm®. For reasons of hygiene, the Herpotherm® should always be used by only one individual.

With the Herpotherm®, symptoms of the herpes infection are effectively combated. Infection with the Herpes-simplex virus cannot, however, be reversed.

HOW DOES HERPOTHERM WORK?

The treatment of herpes with the Herpotherm® takes place with the help of a concentrated heat in the range of 50-51°C which, when applied at the proper time, prevents the formation of the blisters and allows the further symptoms (prickly sensation, burns, itchiness, feeling of tightness, pain) to subside quickly. Through the heating of the cells infected with the herpes virus, a total or partial denaturing of the enzymes or proteins can be achieved. The reproduction of the virus is thereby prevented and the development of the lip-blister can be stopped.

In dermatological testing the formation of lip-blisters was totally prevented in the test subjects by means of the correctly timed use of the Herpotherm®. When used later, the Herpotherm® causes a less serious cycle and/or an earlier subsidence of the symptoms.

The Herpotherm® is a medical device made in Germany with 100% end control of the reported application parameters. Undesired side effects or even pathological skin-changes in the area of the lips were ruled out in dermatological testing.

APPLICATION

The treatment of lip herpes should be effected as soon as possible upon detection of the first symptoms which normally become apparent before the formation of the herpes blisters occurs.

• Take the cap off of the Herpotherm® and place the gold-plated heat patch on the area of the mouth affected by the symptoms.
• Now press the button. The heating-up phase will begin, marked by an acoustic signal. A light diode shows when the functional temperature of the instrument has been reached. The treatment time lasts about 4 seconds.The acoustic signal will sound a second time to mark the end of the treatment. The LED will go out.
• Now you can remove the Herpotherm®from the lips.

Multiple treatments with the Herpotherm® are absolutely possible and should be carried out in accordance with the circumstances (such as lingering or repeated occurrence of the symptoms).

The Herpotherm® is not designed for any use apart from that described here.

SIDE EFFECTS / CONTRAINDICATIONS

No undesired effects of this medical device are known. The test results of the expert medical, dermatological report based on a clinical-dermatological observation of the application of Herpotherm® have concluded that the use of Herpotherm® is sound with respect to dermatological-clinical criteria. The concentrated heat which is used in the treatment can be uncomfortable for some people. However, the danger of burning has been ruled out.

The goldplated contact patch of the Herpotherm® makes it possible for people with allergic reactions to chrome-nickel to use the herpes treatment instrument. Furthermore, children, those with pacemakers, and those who suffer from epilepsy can use the Herpotherm® without worries. It is of utmost importance to caution that the Herpotherm®should always be used by only one individual. Ignoring this warning can lead to the unintentional contraction of the herpes virus and/or other pathological agents. Furthermore, the user of the Herpotherm® should always disinfect the device after each use, utilizing the disinfectant solution included in the package or another similar one. This procedure should be carefully followed since the herpes virus can be spread from one part of the body to another on the same person. The risk of spread of the herpes-simplex virus from one part of the body to another (for example nose, eyes [risk of blinding]) is greatest when the fluid has already formed in the blisters and these then burst. It is advisable to prevent reaching this stage through the timely use of the Herpotherm®.

CARE AND CLEANING

The disinfection of the contact patch should be carried out after use of the Herpotherm®instrument utilizing a disinfectant solution (for example a disinfection and cleaning towelette). Do not clean the instrument with water.
