The Body Shop ACNE PATCH

Hydrocolloid Patches:
Made from a hydrophilic polymer, these patches absorb excess fluid (pus and oil) from pimples, creating a moist healing environment that promotes faster recovery. They also protect the pimple from bacteria and prevent picking or touching, which reduces the risk of scarring and infection. Ideal for surface-level pimples with visible heads.

Anti-inflammatory/Medicated Patches:
Contain active ingredients like salicylic acid, tea tree oil, niacinamide, or hyaluronic acid. These help reduce redness, inflammation, and bacterial growth, assisting in quicker pimple resolution. Suitable for mild to moderate acne and early-stage pimples.

Microneedle Patches:
Feature tiny dissolving needles that deliver active ingredients deeper into the skin, targeting cystic or nodular acne. They can be more effective for deeper, inflamed pimples but should be used cautiously as they may irritate sensitive or active cystic acne.
