PEOPLE have been heaping praise on a "MAGICAL device" that puts an end to one of the few downsides of going away on holiday.
Mosquito bites can be hugely irritating, especially when you're simply trying to enjoy your holiday.
However, there's a handy gadget that not only eases the itching after a bite, but also claims to heal them too.
The Beurer BR60 insect bite healer is meant to relieve symptoms for those who have been bitten by applying heat to the affected area.
The ceramic plate "accelerates the healing process" within three to six seconds.
Users heat up the device then place it on their bite for a few seconds.

It has two different settings and is suitable for children and adults.
It also comes with separate settings for sensitive skin and regular users.
It's also compact and lightweight making it easy to take abroad, where you're most likely to get bitten by mosquitoes.
