Rael Microneedle Acne Healing Patch - Pimple Acne Spot Tea Tree Treatment (4Pack, 36 Patches)

The price is out of this world. It’s almost $2 per tiny patch of hydrocolloid with tea tree oil. I’ve tried out of sheer curiosity as I’ve been using regular hydrocolloid bandaids (cut in little pieces) for over ten years - obviously at a much better price, though it’s not over packaged sold for desperate people with skin problems, it’s worked absolutely perfectly. This product is a rip off, over packaged and over priced. Also sticks like a sore thumb on your skin, don’t fool yourself thinking it’s invisible. It’s also impossible to lay flat because it’s so thin. I recommend all the ones out there looking for a simple solution that doesn’t put them in financial deficit (because I know the feeling of despair trying to cure acne) to just get those hydrocolloid blister bandaids, and cut them to size. Clean properly your wound first and leave it on as long as you can. Much more efficient since it’s a lot thicker, and a lot less pricey! Good luck Xxx

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.

There are hundreds of pimple stickers and patches online but people have to recognize that none of those hydrocolloid ones are gonna do anything if you have under-the-surface zits or cysts forming. You need to use patches that have microneedles in order to deliver the ingredients under the skin. Regular patches will just sit on the surface of your skin like spot treatments do. I've bought 3 orders of these Rael ones and they're the only cost-effective microneedle patches that work. I HATE the price point because 4 packs for nearly $40 is still pretty pricey, but...I have yet to find a cheaper option. And a single Rael pack is already $12, so I guess you save $8. And besides, microneedle patches by default tend to be way more expensive than regular hydrocolloid ones. Note these won't kill a cyst overnight in one use, but a patch can decrease the size of a cyst with just one use. In often cases, you'll need to use 3 patches acriss 3 nights to see significant swelling reduction. I recommend investing in a high-frequency wand too to help combat overall acne and help decrease cyst size and swelling too.

As expected

For me, I usually get pimples on random spots like middle of forehead or chin. Whenever it happens, I try so hard to cover with makeup. They are usually not covered up and get worse after a day (since I’m putting the makeup right on the top of pimples). But I always had to put makeup on my acne to get rid of a little bit of blemish, even though I knew it’s not good for my skin. And i tried this, and it removed my pimple in a day! If you get a pimple that just started surfacing and it bothers you all day, this can be your solution over the night. There is not much things to do. All you need do is putting it on before bed and removing in the morning. It actually FLATTEN my acne! You can actually see the medicine (microneedle) melted after use. SCIENCE! It just works as they say in the description. I’m definitely willing to buy this product again in the future!
