Description

Polysporin Cold Sore Healing Patch uses hydrocolloid technology to effectively treat the cold sore. The patch forms a protective barrier that contains the virus and enables fast effective healing.

Directions for Use:  Apply POLYSPORIN® Cold Sore Healing Patch at first sign of an outbreak. When the patch starts to detach from the skin, remove it and replace it with a new one until cold sore is healed. Patches should be used 24 hours a day. On average, the patch will stay on for approximately 8 hours. You do not need to remove the patch every 8 hours, only when it begins to detach.

    With all the advertising I was hoping that the product would work a little quicker. However, the product does soothe the burning of a coldsore.

    no real healing effect, but can use makeup over this, so it won't show at all, while not putting any products over sore

    I suffer the occasional cold sore and am always looking for an effective product to heal them faster.
    Price is very affordable. It works fairly well if you catch the cold sore very early. Otherwise it isn't as effective. It does cover it and is slightly noticeable depending on the size of the sore.

    My boyfriend suffers from the occasional cold sore and he uses these patches for 2 reasons. 1 to clear up the cold sore and 2 to contain it and hide it. It doesn't clear the cold sore any faster and he wears the patches for about a week. It does however hide the embarrassment of the cold sore as you cant he has one or that he is even wearing the patch. These are super expensive too. I think there is probably something better and more effective out there

    I don't really get cold sores but my friend does a lot ... she tried this once and never again .. it was to pricey and didn't work at all, it gave her a bit more soreness to it.

    It can be used to cover/hide your cold sore but I dont find healing part to be very effective.

    I like that it covers up the cold sore, but I don't find it any more effective than other products.

    Have used this to cover a cold sore a few days after the breakout...it lessened the appearance but was not very effective with adhering for long? May be over rated. Have some left and will try again if necessary, hopefully won't have to.
