What’s the most effective pimple patch?

There are two types of pimple patches: hydrocolloid and microneedle patches. Hydrocolloid patches work best on pustules which are those juicy pus-filled pimples. On the other hand, microneedle patches work best on papules – known as blind pimples because they can’t be seen on the surface of the skin. The effectiveness of a pimple patch heavily depends on the type of pimple you want to treat and how you use the patch. This is why it’s important to use the right one!

Do pimple patches really work?

Pimple patches must be used on dry skin. Hydrocolloid patches only work after you extract acne – meaning it’s an open wound! Microneedle patches work even before extracting acne and are often used to deflate a blind pimple.
