Care Science Hydrocolloid, Large, 2.3 in x 3 in, 4CT | 100% Waterproof Seal Promotes Up to 2X Faster Healing, Reduces Scarring, Drug-Free Pain Relief

Steam burn below inner wrist was difficult to cover. These did a fantastic job protecting the burn without the bandage getting knocked off or dirty. Lasts over 24 hours. Healed within a few days

I tried All-haealth and Band-aid brand as a comparison. These are NOT: breathable, nor do they absorb the wound exudate, and I would definitely not say they are waterproof, nor have some dressing change indicator. Whomever wrote the products advertisement is not that honest. However, after cutting them into two pieces and putting them on my incisions, I am GRATEFUL I found this brand!!!! They are AMAZING at pain relief, reducing scarring, helped me heal 3 times faster, and would easily last me 10 days!!!!I don't think most people on the reviews are following instructions. Which is the norm, unfortunately. You should make sure you are 100% clean, dry, and want the wound to heal quickly!!! I would NEVER put them on my nipple again. Bc they are not breathable. But my areolas healed so quick after 20 days, two applications. I do have pics but unless I was a spokes person, they are private. LolI am still using them on my arms and especially where the areola and incision meet as well as the rest of that lollipop cut. You can barely tell I had surgery and it's been 8 weeks!!!!The pain relief on my arms, so I can go back to work, is phenomenal!!!I can't complain about the price bc my perspective is specific to paying thousands for a surgery you can barely tell I had.Also, I eat with intent. I make sure I eat or drink 40 grams of protein each day. Along with veggies each day and ate very little sugar. I took diluted arnica as a sublingual, and used a heating pad for 30 minutes in each area before stretching, as directed by my Surgeon.I highly recommend these to my Patients and LOVE them personally!!! Better than the $100 patches of crap I tried that was suggested by regular Doctors. Seriously! I have extremely sensitive skin and zero issue with a reaction. But was not using product underneath either! I think that is also another problem with these mixed reviews. If you are going to use the pain relief, anti-scarring, Neosporin, you don't put these on that day. That's obvious, no? Lol

I fell - hard - during an early morning dog walk during our most recent snowstorm. Didn't see the ice under the snow and my knee connected with the curb and was ripped open. Regular bandages just cover the wound, but these actually make a seal and heal the wound. I like to buy the bigger ones and can cut them into smaller pieces as needed. My knee is already in much better shape one week later than it would have been if I had just used a regular bandage. If you have bigger open wounds or surgery, YOU NEED THESE.

Not quite what I was looking for and the edges Pell up quickly. They work for a quick fix but not for several days.

Started out a handful of years ago using the popular brand's version of this. Found that the product does what it says in that it speeds up the healing process. This version is pretty much the same as the better-known brand. I recently skinned my knee and am in day 3 of healing. I've been changing the bandage daily given the 'weeping' that occurs when I walk on the leg (gross, I know) but I can see, when I change-out the bandages, that the wound is indeed healing well. I've used the smaller version of these bandages on fingers, arms, and they work very well. They cost more than regular bandages, but are worth it. Hold up in showers, too.

Wish I knew about these earlier. Had a mole on my back removed. Two days after surgery applied this bandage over stitches. Pain gone. Itching gone. I can take shower. Yay! After 5 days replace and repeat. Three weeks in excellent healing progress. I don’t think I’ll have any scars. It is very apparent what this product does and what the benefits are when the wound is kept “naked”. After half a day or so it starts itching (Ie drying out). 20 minutes after this bandage is applied all itching is gone. I’ll be using this technology exclusively on any future wounds. It’s a no brainer.

I had a large burn and it protected it from rubbing my shoes. Stayed stuck for a long time. I was scared removing it would be painful. But it came off no problem and pain free. Highly recommend for large areas.

The bandage is very hard to remove from the backing. I ruined the first one as it tore in the middle while trying to remove the backing. Compared to Compeed, Compeed are very easy to to apply and to remove the backing. This brand ended up being a two person job to apply it and slowly remove the backing to keep it from tearing. If it were on a knee or similar one person could pull it off but on an elbow or forearm where you can't use two hands you'll probably need help.Follow up. I found if you put the bandage in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or so the backing comes off much easier without damaging it. You have to move quickly as it warms up and peel the backing before it softens but it peeled off much easier than at room temp.
