For minor skin lesions, such as cuts , scratches and punctures, you need to protect the wound from infection with bacteria. For this, a liquid patch was developed, which replaced the usual tissue bandages. It is a thick liquid or gel, forming on the surface of the epidermis the finest waterproof film, which prevents the penetration of microbes.
Liquid wound plaster with a brush
There are only 2 forms of release of the drug in question - in the form of a spray and a bottle, equipped with a small comfortable brush.
The latter is more convenient to use for processing small diameter skin lesions, as the brush allows to apply the patch pointwise.
Stamps of preparations:
- Walgreens Liquid Bandage;
- New Look New-Skin;
- 3M Cavilon No String Barrier Film;
- Kalina «Liquid plaster».
The use of liquid is very simple. It is necessary to clean the treated area well, and apply a dry wound to the medicine. After 10-20 seconds, the first layer of the adhesive will dry and form a film that can be strengthened by applying the drug again.
Typically, to protect the skin, two applications are enough, but during the day you can repeat the procedure.
It is worth noting that the liquid patch also helps against calluses (not wet). The microfilm reliably closes the grated zones, promotes acceleration of healing and regeneration of the skin, prevents the formation of abscesses and pus.

Many women are interested in the question, which of the listed liquid patches does not dry the skin, given their moisture resistance.

In addition, patches are developed without the use of alcohol and other aggressive ingredients.
