What the gurus are saying

Hydrocolloid patches that draw inflammation and visibly shrink pimples overnight earn praise from dermatologists for their simplicity and effectiveness. The patches work best on clean skin before bed, and one key benefit dermatologists highlight is that they create a physical barrier that stops you from picking at spots, which prevents the deeper scarring that becomes very hard to treat later. They're plain hydrocolloid with no active ingredients, so they layer well under other treatments like adapalene.

"I like the Neutrogena ones, they're just hydrocolloid, they don't have any active ingredients. Put a pimple patch on clean skin and then do your adapalene gel on your entire face. The pimple patch will help draw the inflammation so when you wake up in the morning the pimple will not be nearly as red and the swelling should go down."

"Pimple Patches are everywhere now, they're easy to find. You can find some with salicylic acid, with Tea Tree oil, or just plain hydrocolloid ones, hydrocolloid ones are my favorite. Neutrogena has some really nice ones. Put them on before you go to bed after you wash your face, sleep with them. You will be surprised how that pimple has shrunk overnight."

"Neutrogena makes some Pimple Patches, those are all fine to use. Those hydrocolloid patches prevent you from picking at them, because I can tell when a patient has been picking. I see this angulated triangular shaped scab on the forehead, on the cheeks. I can tell when you're picking and those are really tough. Those atrophic indented scars that you develop, those are so tough to treat. So even lasers we have a hard time filling in those indented ice pick scars. So if you're using the occasional pimple patch to protect yourself, your finger from picking at that acne lesion, I'm all for it."
