I typically get two to four cold sores a year, usually when seasons change. Usually it takes 10-12 days for the whole sore life cycle, but this product actually has done wonders on shortening that time - by half - so long you that you carefully follow the instructions! What's even better is the fact that the patch conceals the visibility of the awful looking cold sores (especially when they come when you least expect it)! The package promises about 8 hours of invisibility, but honestly just worked for about 5-6 hours - nevertheless, did a good job. I would recommend this product for those who are prone to getting cold sores - the quality of the product is amazing - but you have to be willing to pay the price!
as soon as i start too feel the tingling i apply one and within a few days its gone been suffering with coldsore for along time and this product works
I get cold sores on a regular basis. They are unsightly and painful. Using the Polysporin Cold Sore Patch helps hide them and takes away some of the sting. I do wish it was more affordable.
I buy these for my daughter. When I get a cold sore I can take oral medication that keeps it at bay, but she is too young and so has to ride them out. These patches are a perfect alternative for her and work great! I wish they were a little cheaper though.
I was so happy with this product. The patches help to cut down the healing time and diminish the pain of the cold sore as well. I also like the way the patch covers the unsightly cold sore so that you can camouflage it with makeup.
My 26 year old daughter has battled with cold sores since she was a young girl. Over the years we have tried all of the remedies on the market along with prescription medications. She would have "ok" effects with other products but they would all take time and she would get frustrated and embarrassed by the cold sores on her lip.
A year ago I saw Polysporin cold sore healing patches in the store and figured "why not" give them a try.
Well, long story short, my daughter LOVES them. They cut down the healing time by at least half. And the patches also work as a bit of a camouflage for the cold sore too. They are easy to use and stay in place even when eating or drinking.
Over the past year my daughter has met several people who also suffer from cold sores and she has highly recommended Polysporin Cold Sore Healing Patches to them.
This product was the perfect option for me. I needed something to help heal my cold sore faster and also cover it up while it was healing. The Polysporin Cold Sore Healing Patch allowed me to do both! I was able to cover up my cold sore and even apply make-up over top for more coverage. The patches stayed on throughout my whole day at work. On top of it all, they healed my cold sore in four days! I use this product with every cold sore I have now and would not choose anything else.
My husband uses these as he is prone to cold sores. I find that with the patches his cold sores clear up a lot faster than regular lip balms that are formulated for cold sores. I also like that it hides the obvious cold sore as it's healing.
