Hydrocolloid Cold Sore Treatment Patches (15 Invisible Plasters for Cold Sores) - 12 Hours Protection from Water, Bacteria & Viruses - Discreet, Easy to Apply Patches with Patch Applicator

I think these Patches are amazing and well worth the money. They prevent soreness, itching and scabbing and certainly Heal the sore a lot quicker than cream. They can cover the unsightly sore and can also be covered with make up. The only problem I found was it left marking from the Cold sore on the Skin after Healing which again can be covered with concealer but this does eventually fade. A problem I found was that sometimes the Patch would not connect to the Skin of contact having to pick it of the strip and sometimes getting wasted also I applied the Patch on first onset but it still developed, however still very good and wouldn’t be without them now.

First time using this product and I'm very impressed. Ordered after onset, so didn't start using until 2 days after inital onset. Provides limited physical contact with the coldsore and stopped the itching and cracking that occurs. Easy to use and barely noticeable. Coldsore had cleared up in about 1 week. Will definitely ensure that I keep a stock of these in the house

Great for cold sores on the actual lip. They also make the sore less noticeable. Just make sure your lip is completely dry before applying, otherwise the patch won’t stick properly. Once on, it stays in place well & is comfortable to wear.

Really impressed with these patches. They’re thin, discreet and stay on well most of the day. Helped protect the cold sore and it seemed to heal quicker than usual, hygienic way to manage a cold sore. The only downside is after eating it doesn’t stay as well if the sore in on the lip, but overall still really useful and I’d buy again.

After experiencing coldsores for 30 years I've found these to be the best treatment. I wish I'd found them sooner! They keep the coldsore contained and stop it spreading, stop it blistering and scabbing, and reduce healing time. They stick well and often last 12 hours.

I’ve suffered with cold sores since my teens (I’m 30 now) and I’ve tried it all. I’ve used all the creams, red light and heat therapy sticks etc (which do also work for the most part). Recently I’ve been getting cold sores a lot more often and I was away for a couple of days when I started getting that dreaded tingling feeling without my usual treatments with me. I popped along to a boots and picked up a pack of these without much hope however, firstly I am so impressed with the invisibility of the patch, you genuinely can barely see it when it’s stuck down correctly on your lip and it really does make the cold sore barely noticeable. If you get it stuck down right, and don’t touch it, it should stay there all day/ all night without budging. It very much feels like a protective layer that drastically increases healing time. I started getting a cold sore most recently on a Friday morning, wore these patches religiously day and night and my cold sore was near enough completely gone by Tuesday morning! Without any other treatments applied at all! These really are great and I will use these in the future for sure. Plus the Amazon price is a few pounds cheaper than the boots price so win win!

The Compeed cold sore patches do help protect and speed up healing, but I found a few issues. If you put them on the inner part of the lip, they come away quite quickly and don’t stay in place. Also, for men with facial hair, the adhesion isn’t great — they tend to peel off. Useful product overall, but not perfect. Works best on smooth, hair-free areas.

These are really good i used them for my son who had a verg bad coldsore that was causing a lot of pain. Really good and made a massive difference within a couple of days

Good. It heals the wound in a week's time

Promotes swift healing. Highly recommend.

It did the work perfectly

Genuinely thought these wouldn’t work but I’m so glad I gave them a try. They genuinely made my cold sore disappear in 2 days. Works like a charm.

I would have given it 5 star if I had received the new version of the patch with the new applicator. I ordered two boxes (from Metropharma shipped by Amazon) and one was the new applicator and one was the old version (expiring in 9 months). The old version is horrible - it’s so hard to put on, the sticker stretches so much that once it’s glued it rolls back very quickly. Waste of money! The new version works super well and it’s easy to put on. The course of the blister is still about a week but at least you’re not suffering during that week! It’s quite well explained in the instruction booklet in a diagram. The sticker stays put for even longer than 12 hours. I would highly recommend the new version, but maybe not guaranteed from this seller.
