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.

    Boyfriend was so shy and would not leave the house when he had a cold sore. You could barely see them after applying one of these! And it seemed to heal a lot fast! Wish they were less expensive but pretty worth it for shy people!

    Can be a little challenging to apply sometimes, but have been very effective with healing &/or minimizing full blown cold sore. Clear patch barely visible while healing.

    This product was awesome. Hid my cold sore great. Took the tingle away and felt it protected it very well, even allowed me to wear lipstick. Love it.

    When I came across the healing patch in the drugstore I was very excited. I never enjoyed putting the healing cream on my face every few hours. It's annoying and not always possible.
    The patch is clear and not noticeable, which is key! It helps cut down the healing time, but it's not perfect. I ruined a couple by not being able to remove the smoothly enough and have it ending up bunching up. That being said, I enjoy the product and recommend it.

    I have used these on multiple occasions.

    It's nice to have the cold sore covered but it doesn't cause the sore to "disappear" from sight. I like that it stops the virus from shedding, but the patch shows up easily and reflects light. It is obvious you have one on. I also notice that when you take the patch off, it takes skin with it, no matter how careful you are.

    They say they are only good for 12 hours... occasionally I leave it on for as long as it will stay. Sometimes they come off too easily and are only good for an hour, depending where it is located.

    That all being said, I still buy them and put one on the minute I feel the tingle. I feel they are helpful overall and would recommend them for use.

    I get cold sore a lot. Especially in the winter. I have tried anything and everything down to the old alcohol on them. (Ouch) but last winter I tried the polysporin cold sore healing patch and I must say it healed quickly. I swore to my husband that that was all I'm using from now on. Love it and would recommend it to anyone who suffers from cold sores.

    Great product. Finally there is something to conceal the 'ugly' phase of the cold sore. As for the reported problems with covering it further with makeup, just don't. It's virtually invisible on your skin and you simply don't need to.

    I got this the first time when it was on sale and with a coupon and boy was I impress. This is the only thing I buy now and recommend it to all my friends and family. I believe its the best product on the market for cold sores at this time. I just feel the price is a bit much..
