Do pimple patches actually work? (1 Viewer)

[Tiaramitsu]

I just purchased these from a beauty store bc the clerk was telling me it worked for her but like idk im skeptical


I feel like they only work on pimples w/ whiteheads & not pimples that are blind (deeply imbedded in the skin)


Pls let me know if u used it before, brand is called "mighty patch"

I think we have a similar one in the US called Bioré Blackhead Remover Nose Patches or something.

As you've said, I think these only work for surface acne/pimples, not deeply rooted ones because I remember watching TV ads for it where the actors said it's to remove blackheads.

My experience is no, but maybe different brands work better or worse for different skin types.

I've had some that absolutely do work, and on the deep pimples, too. It very much depends on brand/type.

Works for my skin

 

[hxney_jun]

they definitely don't work for me

I never really got many pimples.
But it's worth a go I suppose.

I have only used a few and it worked for me, but I think it does depend on brand... The ones by COSRX work well. I haven't used the brand you listed, but it doesn't hurt to try

I use the YesTo acne dots. I use them overnight while I sleep and they have definitely helped out with the deeper ones at times. They're not 100%, but they do wonders. Not like a hydrocolloid where they blend in and can be worn during the day, but that doesn't really matter. Edit: looking at the reviews, it seems they might've reformulated in the last couple years, most reviews are negative. I didn't have any issues with them, though.

Thank you for the info, I'll make sure to keep it in mind!
