According to Everyday Health, pimple patches are a great option for you if you have a blemish pop up — if you use them correctly. They are effective in getting out any impurities underneath your skin and protect the blemish from any further irritation. Some patches even have great ingredients like salicylic acid and aloe vera, which can help reduce inflammation and help get rid of the blemish. But, pimple patches should mainly only be used on a white head, unless otherwise noted on the product. Some brands of pimple patches are geared towards those more painful, red, pimples, so make sure you are using the right kind.
Everyday Health also recommends using them at night, but Cleveland Clinic says that daytime use is okay too, as long as you put the patch on completely dry skin and clean off any oozing that may have occurred. They also recommend that those with sensitive skin stay away from any pimple patches. But, if you have a blemish and want to help get rid of it fast, pimple patches can be a great option.
