Rael Miracle Microcrystal Spot Cover Hydrocolloid Pimple Patches (36 Ct)

I swear these things are magic for my skin!! I swear by these!! I wish we had these sooner!! These melt away those fresh new painful pimples that haven’t reached the surface yet overnight or they pull the white head up so you can use the Pink box patches from RAEL to remove the excess! Reduced my picking tremendously

Expensive but unlike the regular colloid dots that they sell, these literally work after a few hours with noticeable reduction in redness and size of the pimple. I get some pretty bad cystic pimples and the last time, the dermatologist recommended that I have need to have a steroid injection into it to shrink but I tried this instead. After a few days (literally I had a giant growing cyst on my face for three months), I noticed it finally shrinking and draining. It took about two weeks and two packets of the product but this was the cheapest and fastest solution that I have tried. The only negative thing that I noticed was more scaring/blemishes after using this product. The regular ones, while they take forever to work, did not scar or leave blemishes on my face so I guess you have to weigh the benefits. If you only get occasional large pimples, I think using this once or twice on it would be magical. However, long term twice I wouldn’t recommend.

I purchased these after hearing about a similar (different brand) item. I sometimes get deep, cyst like zits on my chin and jawline that never come to a head. I'm terrible at just leaving them alone to do their thing and die off on their own. They don't work the way I expected - I expected a patch that absorbed whatever gunk from the skin. These did not do that - there was like a slimy gross (protective?) layer where the patch had been. I used them all day on day one and overnight and then all day on day 2 - a total of 3 patches. I had a large zit on my chin that wasn't really red yet but was painful to touch. I wasn't really sure it was doing anything - the zit didn't reduce in size or in painfulness, but there was always a gooey bit where the patch had been. After wearing one overnight, it seemed like the zit was maybe coming to the surface - which I didn't think it would do at all! These zits never do - they sit far below where I can get them and I end up squeezing like a madman trying to bring them up and end up with nasty marks on my face that last literal months. I cleaned the area (and the gooey goop left behind by the patch) with rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab and put on a new patch. By late afternoon, I could see what definitely looked like a head on it, so I removed the patch and cleaned the area with rubbing alcohol. There was absolutely a head on it and I was able to pop it (I probably should have just put another patch on and let it do it's thing, but I couldn't resist!) and I was impressed with the amount of gross crud that came out of it. Afterward, I cleaned the area again with rubbing alcohol and put a regular hydrocolloid patch on it. So far it seems to be doing very well. It seems to have worked. Obviously I'll never know if it would have come to a head without the patch, but from experience with past zits, I don't think so. At the very least, it kept me from constantly touching it (to feel for a head) and getting more germs on my face around the already bothered area. I'm buying more to keep on hand so that when this package is inevitably used up, I'll be all set. One note - the part of the patch that contains the microneedles is not covered, but it is in a plastic tray inside a sealed package. I did keep them out of the bathroom to avoid humidity from showers getting inside the package.

I had to see it myself to believe it, but these are truly magic. I started out with the 9-pack because I was skeptical, but I will definitely be ordering more. I am a woman in my 50s, and I don't often get pimples, but when I do, they are the deep, hard, painful, cystic type that never come to a head. They can lurk below the surface for weeks or months, sometimes flaring up and getting really red and painful, and other times just being a lump I can see/feel below the surface. Using most over-the-counter acne lotions didn't affect the cyst, and left the surface dry, crusty, and scabby. When the cyst finally went away, it would often leave a scar. Most recently, I've had one of these cysts on my cheek for over six weeks. At times, it was so painful that the throbbing would wake me up/keep me up at night. I'd have to hold an icepack on it to try to reduce the swelling and pain. I was finally about ready to make an appointment with a dermatologist, although the creams and lotions they have prescribed in the past have been expensive and haven't been very helpful. When I was searching the internet for home remedies for cystic acne, I stumbled upon these patches. As a last resort, I thought I'd try them a try. I received my order yesterday and tried one patch right away, but admittedly, I screwed it up. After removing the large circle from the square backing, I thought that the smaller circle was another covering that needed to be peeled off. I figured out that this smaller circle was the "microneedle" part, so I tried to piece it back together. The first patch worked somewhat, but I clearly didn't do it right. Then I tried a second patch, this time doing it correctly. Pressing the microneedle for five seconds as directed felt sort of like pressing velcro into my skin, not painful. I felt very minor tingling while wearing the patch; again, not painful, but sort of like a little tickle or itch. After two hours, the patch was bulging with liquid extracted from the cyst. I used a third patch with the same result. After three patches and about 8 hours later, my cyst is almost entirely gone, without any redness or flakiness. Now I'm kicking myself that I've been living with this stupid enormous zit in the middle of my face for weeks when it could have been dissolved in a day had I acted on this sooner. Simply amazing!

I was very disappointed when i realized there were only 9 patches in the pack. Seems overpriced for the amount u get. Used 2 so far, i guess they work, my skin is weird, i get what looks like the start of pimples and sometimes they just disappear on their own or they become pimples. So its hard to say if it truly works or if those bumps just werent destined to become pimples.

Takes a few nights, but these work well...I like the point side as it seems to speed things along.

These patches work really well for helping mitigate the cystic acne situation I have on my chin. I wish there were more than 9 of them in a pack because I went through them too fast, but they did help with the pain and discomfort so I consider them worth the cost.

Want to feel young again? These patches will transport you back to that awkward pubescent phase when your breakouts were so heinous that you considered wearing a full ski mask to school. I am 40 years old and do not have “problem skin.” My face is, for the most part, pretty clear. I will periodically get small whiteheads here and there and, every once in a while, I will get one of those beneath the skin monsters that aches from the depths of my face but refuses to surface. I only recently discovered that acne spot patches were a thing and, while skeptical, I felt an urge to order some to have on hand for when unwanted visitors decide to “pop up.” I was pleasantly surprised by the first brand of patches that I used. They diminished whiteheads in less than 2 days, leaving behind nothing but a glorious, soiled circle of triumph. It seemed like sorcery. However, while they provided a tiny bit of relief for those mammoth, subterranean variety of pimples, they were clearly not the most effective treatment. When I heard that microneedle patches existed, I was on the hunt. The brand I Usually use doesn’t make them so, after seeing so many great reviews, I decided I couldn’t go wrong with these Rael patches. It turns out I could and I did. Really wrong. Either I got a bad batch or the reviews are doctored because these satan stickers cursed my skin. I had a small whitehead and a deep doozy so I slapped a patch on both, following the directions carefully. After the first application, I saw zero positive differences in either of the zits — all I found was a sticky, crusty residue. I would also like to mention the fact that the Rael patches showed no clear signs of absorption. After siting on an affected area for an extended period of time, the patches that I previously used would turn white. These did not. Convinced they just took time to do their thing, so continued using these things for a few days. Instead of clearing the blemishes, it irritated them. It also caused them to multiply. As you can see in the image, my jawline looks angry. LARGE zits surfaced around the still thriving existing ones. The under-the-skin zit actually grew and worsened. I feel like I may have to just raise it and send it to college at this point. I’m trying to make light of this but it actually is pretty terrible. I’m a grown woman and I have an awkward teenager’s complexion right now. It’s embarrassing. My skin doesn’t act like this. It is definitely the Rael patches. Do not buy these, the only thing they reduce is self esteem.

Très Bon produit surtout pour les boutons de type inflammatoire ceux qu'on arrive pas a percer. Un peu cher mais fonctionne très bien sur moi

- These pimple patches are a lifesaver for those pesky early-stage breakouts. The microcrystal technology really gets in there and tackles the problem from the start, which is a huge relief. - Love that they include tea tree oil. It's a natural ingredient that I've always trusted for its soothing and antibacterial properties. It feels like I'm giving my skin a little extra care. - The fact that they're vegan and cruelty-free is a big win. It's nice to know that I'm using a product that's not only effective but also ethically made. - The hydrocolloid material is fantastic at keeping the area protected and clean. It helps prevent me from picking at my skin, which is a bad habit of mine. - However, I wish there were more patches in a pack. Nine patches don't last long, especially if you're dealing with multiple breakouts at once. - The patches could be a bit more adhesive. Sometimes they don't stay put overnight, which can be a bit annoying. - It would be great if they were a bit more transparent. They can be a little noticeable on the skin, which isn't ideal if you want to wear them during the day. Overall, these patches are a solid addition to my skincare routine, but a few tweaks could make them even better.

Ottimo!!!!!! Messo cerotto alla sera, e l'indomani ponfo asciugato

Prix élevé pour 9 patch, c'est mon avis. En cours de test sur des boutons sous cutané donc à voir. Mais moins douloureux et moins rouge après une nuit.

These really work within a few hrs alone. 2-3hrs in, a big difference, redness calmed and swelling gone.
