Worked like a charm
Style: Bundle, Size: 2 Piece Set
Iโve tried other acne patches before and theyโve always pulled excess oil out of my pores, which ended up drying, scarring, and leaving behind a dry patch when compared to the rest of my face. These effects were especially bad for my cystic acne, which always ended up more inflamed and painful after treatment.
The Rael hydrocolloid patches gently pulled out all of the sebum from several pimples that Iโd avoided picking at; with other brands, the patches only pulled anything out from pimples that had already been picked at/burst. The micro needle patch also relieved my cystic acne overnight. The pimple is no longer inflamed or painful. When I took the patch off, I could see the liquid and oils that it had pulled out BUT didnโt experience the scarring I have with other patches. Other reviews mention that the patches are fragile, but I donโt necessarily think thatโs any different from the other brands Iโve tried. I had no problem trying to get one out of the package on the first try.
Overall, I think these are a really good fit for folks with oily skin who experience scarring with other patches. These definitely pull more sebum and not as much oil, so you should see your pimples decrease in size without adding to the inflammation. The patches adhere well and stayed on all night without peeling off (even though Iโd accidentally bunched up some edges on the hydrocolloid patches when applying). Iโm definitely going to keep a stock of both types readily available!
