Hi everyone,

I have my first patch on and on my third day.  Is it normal for the patches to go black round the edges and today the patch is sort of crispy lol.  Sorry for the stupid question but am new to this

Love your username
Yes perfectly normal to go black its basically sweat dust etc collecting on the glue ! Yes they do crinkle up a bit I think its to do with the movement of skin underneath , but make sire irs flat when you apply it and hold hand on it for couple minutes I also press around the edges on mine . Hope this helps

Hi, thanks for your reply,

lol, username matches my warped sens of humour.  Good to know the patch is ok, was thinking oo errrr lol

Yes OCB - my patches get dark round the edge if I'm wearing dark coloured knickers or rights etc. Almost looks dirty! And yes I guess it does look crispy! Good description. As WTD says, always be sure to press it on for about 30 seconds with palm of hand. I've never had a problem.when removing you'll find the dark mark remains on the skin. It comes off easily for me in the shower.

Well am a week and a half in and loving those patch marks lol.

I have to say that I do have much more energy and feel some what less emotional than I have for a long while so thats a bonus as had turned into a miserable, cant be bothered, boring cow, with no energy.


Am having my merina coil taken out next tues, for extra fun as its due to be taken out.
