Mederma Cold Sore Discreet Healing Patch - A Patch That Protects and conceals Cold Sores - 15 Count

Works great. I pop it on as soon as I feel like I getting a cold sore. Easily hides. People don’t know it’s there until I tell them

These discreet patches work perfectly. Recommended

I used to give these five stars until I realised Compeed make the exact same thing for a fraction of the price! I feel completely ripped off. Yes these work, yes if these are all you can get, they are worth it. Especially if you are wearing them for the same reason I was, to protect my little one from the virus. But the Compeed ones are EXACTLY the same.

Didn’t work waste of money

I bought these on Wednesday of last week (it's now Sunday) and my cold sore is almost completely gone and has skipped the weeping and scabbing stage. I am not usually a cold sore sufferer, but after spending 3 weeks at the beach in the US I ended up burning my lips twice despite using SPF lip balm every day. I ended up getting a cold sore after week one and used Abreva which basically did nothing (if you can ever get your hands on Zovirax I recommend since it actually is an OTC Acyclovir cream unlike Abreva) - my lip was absolutely vile and embarrassing but my friend gave me 2 Acyclovir pills to help with the healing. So when I ended up with a new one right after the last one healed I almost had a breakdown. I went to CVS and decided to give these a try and these are a lifesaver! I slept with them on and used them all day on my flight from NYC to back to London. They are pretty expensive so you will probably need 2 packs but they are highly worth it. If you're in the UK order Compeed - it's the same thing. I ordered them on Amazon and they were at my house when I got home. They're only like £5 too. But I digress, 10/10 would recommend this product!

Holy cow! Get this if you suffer from cold sores! Cliche but I have to say, I wish I had known sooner! It not only covers my cold sores but it dries it out and heals it faster! On top of that I even took a shower with it on and the patch is still on. The only time it starts to peel off is when I put it too near the opening of my mouth then it starts to peel off. I think maybe my saliva and due to eating makes the edges start to peel when I put it too near opening of my mouth. But other than that, this is my go to for when I have cold sores. I suffer with cold sores all my life. I honestly like it better than any creams. Plus its pretty discreet. Its not entirely discreet but I'm totally okay with that. I don't put makeup over it just because that's my preference, but you can. I love how the product is a nice healing bandage over the cold sore and it's very effective and efficient!

Excelente remedio para los fuegos. A pesar que me acabe los parches muy rápido, en 5 dias ya no tenia nada. No me lastimó ni tuve dolores u ardores como veces anteriores. Evita costras. Lo único es que ya pasó un mes y aun tengo una ligera mancha roja, como cicatriz y es algo que nunca antes habia tenido. Sin duda los volvería a usar

I know we all struggle with that dreaded pain and discomfort of getting a cold sore, and a lengthy healing time is the last thing we want, so I’m here to share my process and hopefully help others speed up their recovery time. My kit is compiled of a red light therapy device (1072nm), lysine pills, lysine lip ointment by Quantum Health, alcohol wipes and mederma patches. At the first tingle I wipe the area with alcohol wipe, use red light for 3 minutes and then cover the area with a patch. I take one lysine pill a day. The patch stays on overnight, and in the morning I’ll remove it, apply some lysine ointment and let it breath a little, then after about 30 mins I’ll wipe the area with alcohol again, do another 3 mins of red light, and apply a fresh patch. This process is repeated for 3 times each day. Usually this stops a blister even forming, and by day 3 I’m already mostly healed, and by day 5 I’d say I’m back to normal. The patches are great for protecting the skin from being damaged, and also contains it to help prevent spreading the infection. The alcohol wipes help to keep it dry, and also ensure the patches adhere and stay put. The lysine helps the healing and without a doubt the star of the show is the red light, which I don’t know how it works but it basically stops the sore in it’s tracks and speeds up recovery time immensely. I always carry all of these items with me in my handbag so that I’m ready to act as soon as I feel one coming on. I hope this helps someone to ease the suffering of a flare up!
