I have used another cold sore medication for a few years. It was always effective but I wanted something that had the extra protection that a patch would provide, so the last time I had a cold sore I purchased the Polysporin patch. The patch worked well, and I loved the additional protection I get form a patch. I always worry about passing the virus onto my children. A bonus about having the patch on, is that I ride motorcycles and when I have a cold sore and am riding in the sun and wind it can make a small cold sore turn into a HUGE deal. While I had the patch on it offered the added protection from the wind so it didn't make it worse
I bought these in a hurry when I was going to vacation in Mexico in December, and I did not want my new cold sore to stay all week! I was really surprised that this little sticker really works! It helps cover it really effectively and also reduces the pain. It helped heal my cold sore in about 3 days and I could enjoy my vacation fully after that! Really works and I highly recommend it! (It costs about 20-25$ but it's really worth it).
I bought the Cold Sore Polysporin Healing patches for my Husband a few months ago. They worked very well at speeding the healing process. He would only wear them at home of course! He said they felt a little "funny" on - but well worth the little bit on inconvenience. They made a big difference in getting rid of his cold sore a lot more quickly than without.
I am one of those lucky people who get cold sores frequently. I have been that girl trying so hard to "cover" up the cold sore so I don't feel so embarrassed when I go out. Then I saw an add for the Poysporin Cold Sore Healing Patch and I HAD to try it!!! Let me tell you am I EVER GLAD I did!! it was not only very straightforward to apply but it was SUPER easy to blend my make-up over it and it looked as though it wasn't even there! What a relief!! But then it really hit a homerun when it also very much sped up the healing of my cold sore!!! Can you say WIN, WIN, WIN??? So I say to anyone who suffers like I do with frequent cold sores or even those who only get the once in a while or really even if its your first cold sore ever.... Do yourself a favour and GET THIS PRODUCT!! You will be so glad you did!!
Great product, speeds up the recovery of my cold sore. Easy to apply also, and I enjoy using it. I enjoy using Polysporin products in general, good quality and long lasting.
I got my first cold sore a couple of months ago and did not know what to do with it! I picked up a cold sore cream at the store and hoped for the best. It did not work very well - didn't seem to help it and just made it white and noticeable. I then decided to try Polysporin healing patches and they were great! They covered up the ugly cold sore well and healed it quite quickly. It was also not so sore when I had the patch on and happened to knock it by accident.
Me for one like most get self conctious about marks or blemishes or anything on the face that shouldn't be there I had a cold sore and didn't want to leave my house for anything just cause some people look at you like your disease infected even though its just a small cold sore.I seen polysporns product advertised in the flyer and immediately sent my boyfriend out to get it for me. He went but laughed at me saying I was overracginv over a cold word.
Once he returned home I went to the bathroom and applied the patch praying that it would work I kept checking it every few hours and it seemed to be helping within just a short amount of time.As time went on it got smaller and within 2 days it was gone.
I definitely would and have recommended this to others as this patch Worth's better and faster then others creams and such for cold sores and it doesn't sting when applied like I have had happen with other cold sore products.
