LeeMyungNae GoYak Traditional Korean Topical Adhesive Patches, 3 Patches/Pack, 2 Packs

Works great

After one treatment (patch worn about 6-7 hours), my boil was removed. If it hasn’t already erupted, you should use the little pill-shaped thing that comes with the patches. My only caution is that it did leave a crater slightly smaller than a pencil eraser where it drew out the boil, so I’m going to revise my rating and review here as it heals. So far, I’m very pleased not to be in discomfort anymore. However, if conventional antibiotics could have treated it without skin damage and the area where I used this treatment heals with a scar, that will be disappointing.

The instructions are a little unclear as there is a small translation difficulty, I’m sure. You use the patch before the pimple or boil has a white head, then when it heads, use the little tan circular “ointment” underneath the patch, then when it bursts, go back to a plain patch or use a bandaid. It works though! Not ideal for face (as to wear in public). Patch is big and bulky with the ointment underneath. Use at night while sleeping or if you will be staying home all day . Takes 12-24 hours to draw out completely. Plan accordingly.

Has been working well for me. My suggestion, though, is to follow directions to the 'T'. Strictly abiding by a non-fattening diet, and removing as much processed "food" for at least as long as you're using this product really goes a long way. Keep using the patches until all of it, including the core/root has been removed. Wash your hands and keep the problematic area as clean as possible. Personally, and what also has help the efficacy of this stuff (aside from eating as cleanly as possible), is to take/drink foods/drinks/supplements with vitamin c to boost your immune system.

According to Google The 33% lead Tetroxide is toxic. I bought this thinking it was all natural. Put the patch on my lips were tingling after 8 hours and i got a weird rash on my forehead which is not where i had the patch. In the US people don't want lead in their health products. I would appreciate an explanation from the company that sold this. I took the patch off and got my money back from Amazon. Really too bad. Here is info from Google on this ingredient: Lead tetroxide is toxic and its use is being limited. It decomposes on heating, producing oxygen and toxic fumes. It also reacts violently with reducing agents, which creates a fire hazard.

I'm a 300lb man who has struggled with boils my whole life. I knew this product would be different, but the English instructions give some bad advice. In each box you receive a plastic pouch with 3 sand-colored beads and 3 small (1.5"x1.5") bandages that have some sort of 1" sap button in the center. I tried it on 4 recent boil sites, that drained already, some still open wounds. The English paper says you can use the product on these, but to pack the open "pus" wound with the "sand" bead and cover with the sap bandage. Pro: On a deep forming boil, it helped bring it to a head after 3 days, as advertised. Cons: First, the bandage is wayyyy too small to stay put. I'm not hairy, but most of them fell off between my thighs with 15 mins, just laying in bed. If the adhesive part of the bandage was twice as big, it would probably stay. Too cheap for that tho, I guess. Almost as bad, using it on an open wound for 1 night caused the wound to get infected and turn purple in surrounding areas! This was alarming. However, I'm still amazed at how well it did bringing a deep boil to the surface. It does that quite well; I just won't use it on open wounds anymore.

This product actually worked to bring to a head a blind pimple on my face that was growing bigger and bigger each day. It was very painful. I put the dark patch on and immediately saw results the next morning. But the key is the light colored pellet. I finally to tried that after the patch wasnt completely removing the pimple. The light pellet brought the pimple to a head and it burst. Nasty gunk and blood came out. I thought i was on dr pimple popper. I don't know whats in the stuff but it works. Im glad I decided to try it even the products says it for boils.

I get really bad boils in my inner thighs from them rubbing against my pants or each other. I put one of the patches on for a few hours and it calmed them down by A LOT. Nothing else worked for me: hot compress, lemon juice, exfoliating, cleaning, etc to the point where I was really stressed out about them and self-conscious. After a few hours of application, I took it off earlier than I wanted to because I need to shower and it calmed my boil down by a lot. I would totally recommend this and plan on using these patches again in the future.
