Expected Results:
- The pimple appears protected from touch and friction during use.
- Hydrocolloid helps absorb surface secretions from the pimple.
- The pimple may appear calmer and less prominent after leaving the patch on for a sufficient period.
- Helps reduce picking at pimples, promoting a cleaner skin appearance.
- The patch turns white or opaque when secretions are absorbed, indicating it needs to be changed.
- Results vary depending on the type and stage of the pimple, and may not yield the same results for deep, non-superficial pimples.
How to use:
- Wash face and thoroughly dry the targeted area before use.
- Choose the appropriate patch size for the pimple.
- Place the patch directly on the pimple with the adhesive side on the skin.
- Leave it on for several hours or overnight until it absorbs secretions.
- Replace the patch when it turns white or loses its adhesion.
- Do not apply serum or cream under the patch so as not to reduce adhesion strength.
Usage tips from Max Beauty:
- It is recommended to use the patch on completely dry skin, as moisture or creams reduce its adhesion.
- For superficial pimples or those with secretions, the patch is usually more effective than deep, subcutaneous pimples.
- Do not squeeze the pimple before applying the patch, to avoid increasing redness or causing post-acne marks.
- Can be used before bed for better adhesion and longer absorption time.
- If skin is sensitive to tea tree oil or salicylic acid, try it on a small area first.
- For makeup, it is preferable to apply the patch first on clean, dry skin, then apply makeup gently around it.
- For recurrent acne care, use it with a gentle cleanser and a simple routine that does not irritate the skin.
