Things you should know before using acne patches and how to use them correctly.

Browse By

Acne patches are essential for everyone with acne problems. If one day acne becomes inflamed or pus-filled acne develops, you can use them to remove the acne head without having to squeeze it and leave a mark. You can also use them to apply makeup over it without disturbing the inflammation of the acne.

Acne patches are products that are small, thin sheets. The main ingredient is hydrocolloid, which is a substance that helps absorb fluids, dirt, and oil that cause acne.

The main purpose of using acne patches is to help absorb fluids and dirt that are clogge in the skin, prevent accidental picking or scratching of the wound, and help prevent bacterial infection. This helps reduce the risk of inflammation, redness, UFABET, and helps the wound heal faster.

However, acne patches can only be use for pimples that are not very deep. Such as pustules or cysts where the pimple head is clearly visible. Pimples that are deep in the skin or clogged pores are usually ineffective.

General tips for using acne patches

  • Don’t forget to clean your face and hands before applying.
  • Choose a size that fits the lesion or acne, with the patch centered.
  • Apply gently on dry skin, especially for hydrocolloid acne patches.
  • Leave it on for up to 24 hours or until the patch turns cloudy. When you notice that the patch has turned cloudy, it means that the patch has successfully sucked out the dirt from the pores.

For the correct way to use a pimple patch, users should wash and dry their face first. If a pimple in the area where the patch is to be applie has broken, clean it thoroughly first, as the patch may fall off the skin if the skin is moist or wet. For the length of time the patch should be applie, check the product and follow it strictly to ensure safety for the body.
