This is an item I would never have thought to buy until I was pointed toward it by my Dermatologist. Unsurpassed wound dressing. Use it on any surface of your skin instead of a Band Aide. It's expensive, but you would not believe how quickly it makes any kind of skin problem disappear. They tell me you can cut it up for smaller areas. I have used it for "pimple" areas on my scalp and on a rough patch of skin on the back of my hand that would not heal.

A hydrocolloid dressing is a wafer type of dressing that contains gel-forming agents in an adhesive compound laminated onto a flexible, water-resistant outer layer. Some formulations contain an alginate to increase absorption capabilities. The wafers are self-adhering and available with or without an adhesive border and in various thicknesses and precut shapes for such body areas as the sacrum, elbows, and heels.

I keep a supply of this size on hand. 20 patches for $22.80. $1.16 per patch. They retail for $60 a box, and my HMO, Kaiser, gets $35 for them. If you try them, you won't go back to Band Aides.
