Maximum Strength One Step Invisible Wart Remover Strips with Salicylic Acid, Waterproof, Discreet Wart Removal Bandages for Common and Plantar Warts, 14 Count

I bought these bandaid ones, by mistake. So I bought the "drop free fast acting gel" version the day the bandaids came. But I did get a head start on my wart by using these bandaids. These are a very good product and seem to work. The gel version came within 2 days so I didn't finish with the bandaids, but they were working. The purpose I wanted this wart remover is for a GW wart on my groin. (I know it's recommended to go to a professional, which I have many many many years ago, but they basically do the same thing these do... Trust me I know). So when these bandaids came, I opened on up and tried to scrape some of the medication off the bandaid and apply it directly to myself (shaft btw, just 1 the size half a #2 pencil eraser). The medication is not liquid. It's more like a sticky gooey sponge. So taking a small amount of was nearly impossible. However I did finally apply some. There is no pain at all, which surprised me. So I left that stuff stick to me for the whole day. I didn't wrap it or anything, just in there going about my day as normal and it hung on. The next day, I showered and applied it again from a new bandage. Fairly quick, like the 2nd day or so, I noticed the wart was turning black.. which is good. You want to kill it. By this time, the gel version came, and apply the gel was way easier for my case use. The bandaid would be good for any other wart in any other location, but I need the gel. It's all still the same medication ingredients. In total, the wart was gone within 4 or 5 days. It may have been sooner, had I started with the gel and had the full coverage I could get by taking apart the bandaid. After I was done with using any of the wart remover, what's left is a burn. Basically a rug burn. So I applied this stuff called "Aquaphor healing ointment Advanced Therapy". Doing my research (chatGPT), this Aquaphor is best because of the healing ingredients and stuff. The 2nd best is regular Vaseline. Which I had to look up because I forgot to bring the Aquaphor to work one day and had to go by Vaseline. Either or, you apply the ointment not too thick and not too thin. I would just keep applying every 4-8 hours or so. (Now remember, my case is different being in the location it was in, so I could really wrap it and stuff. Which I was okay with, because I wasn't doing anything to get it dirty. Plus it was just a minor rug burn. Very tiny area.

Update: It worked! New photo is added of fully healed thumb. Again, no discomfort whatsoever. The area is still slightly discolored, but other than that I have a smooth wart free thumb for the first time in years!! Yay!!!! I have had a small wart on my dominant thumb for the past several years. Although it is small, it’s location has made things difficult (particularly writing, which is terrible for a college student) as it has always been very sensitive and occasionally painful. I’ve tried freezing it, soaking it, using oils, even tried to just cut it out (not my finest moment) but nothing worked. I ordered compound W clear strips same day delivery on August 17th. The first photo is August 18th. I forgot to take photos after that. To be honest I wasn’t convinced it was actually going to make it come off as the wart and the skin around it was tough and white after two days but nothing changed after that. Then last night, August 25th, the skin had literally just lifted off of my thumb and the wart with it. The area is slightly sensitive post removal but throughout the entire process there has been no pain or discomfort whatsoever. There is still a small ring on my thumb that was the base of the wart, along with what look like some patches in the center, so I will be covering the area with a regular bandaid today for protection and to let the good skin heal a little before I start using compound W to remove the rest tomorrow. I will say that unlike advertised, these strips are not waterproof. The surface getting wet is fine but if water reaches the adhesive it will come off. That wasn’t a big problem for me as I would typically take it off before I showered (if I didn’t I wore a glove) and I was careful when washing my hands. Also, let the strip tell you when it’s ready to come off, not the other way around. I tried to remove it prematurely one time and discovered that the adhesive and salicylic acid patch are pretty powerful and will not come off on any schedule other than their own. Once it is ready to come off though, replace it. Don’t wait until the 48 hours if it’s ready to come off before then. I only think one of mine made it that long, and for the rest I replaced them anywhere between 20 and 36 hours of use. Again, you’re on the strips schedule not the other way around. Overall I am HIGHLY satisfied with this product. It takes patience, mine came off in 8 days but for others it may take several weeks. But no matter the timeframe, this product does what it says it will do. I will be updating whenever the rest of the base skin has come off and then healed over, but as of right now, 5 stars and I would highly recommend to anyone with a stubborn wart!!

Amazing. These worked very well. I had a wart on my finger for a year. I had removed it twice before with freeze off. It came back and was painful. This product took a solid two weeks of non stop use but it worked. It’s gone. I think it may be gone for good ! It was not painful but definitely not pretty. This product basically makes layers shed off of the wart. It’s important to remove the layers as they shed so that the medicine can get deeper each time. I used a dedicated tweezer and file for this. It did not hurt, i felt a little prickle sensation sometimes but it wasn’t bothersome. And peeling off each dead layer didn’t hurt either. It only began to hurt when I realized the wart was gone and I was only treating healthy skin at that point. I believe I may have a permanent scar from the process but there’s also just dry skin from the healing process. I’m ok with it though. I’m so glad this thing is gone!!!!! Try this product!

These work fairly well but the circle with the wart treatment is large - so if you have a small wart, the skin around it is also affected which wasn't great. The band-aid part of it also doesn't stick well, so we would have to get coban to wrap loosely around it to get it to stay.

These work great. Have bought multiple times. Between my daughter, my son, and my husband- they have worked every time. Love how easy they are to use. Placed on fingers so had to change at least daily. But works well

I’ve read that warts will usually disappear on their own in about two years. Mine showed no signs of taking a hike, in fact, it was getting bigger and painful. I decided it was time to take action. Out of the three wart removers I tried, the Compound W Gel, .25 oz was the most effective. Good: • Easy • Convenient • Wart Covered The medicated band-aid style strip is very easy to put on. Simply line up the wart with the middle of the pad and apply like a bandage. For me this was a little more difficult with the wart on the side of my middle finger. This is a very convenient treatment method. Stick it and forget it for two days. In addition, I like that these cover the wart so it’s not visible during treatment. Bad: • Treatment Area • Absorbed Water • Annoying • Mild Pain / Irritation • Short Term Effectiveness The treatment area is a fixed size. I had a small wart and ended up treating the skin around the wart as well. Packaging states the strips are water proof. However, any gap will allow water to soak the strip. After two days of wear the bandage practically fell off. After a few days the treated area became rather sore and painful. More so than with other products. After I used all the strips, the wart returned a month later. With a vengeance I might add. Although these will work for some, they weren’t great for me. Over all it was just an annoying product to use. I had to be careful while washing my hands and showering.

I got this for my son, and it worked really well for him. It didn’t cause any discomfort, and the value for the price was excellent. The quality was good, the color was fine, and it was very easy to use. I also appreciated that the ingredients were natural and gentle, with no harsh effects on my son.

Let’s start by saying that I have had warts on my feet and fingers throughout my whole life. I didnt have any on my fingers until 3 years ago (i used to shake a lot of people’s hands at my job). Additionally, I am an anxious biter and picker of my nails so therefore, when I got one on my finger, they spread to all other fingers over time. I have been using these on 4/8 fingers (each different sizes and depth). I havent been able to get my nails done due to it. The worst ones are on my pointers and pinkies. These are ones that are deep and a huge bump that was so embarassing to even point at something. It has texture and everything. I tried every solution I could have and every product (im on a budget so no doctors). This was the first thing I have used that has actually done something. The bandaids arent waterproof so that is extremely hard and sucks but are any bandaids ACTUALLY waterproof? A lot of people say 24 hours but I try to actively keep mine on for 48 then reapply. I’ve bought 3 packs and will buy more for the others and to make sure they are all gone to the core. I usually soak them in hot water or try to apply covers or normal bandaids while I shower (im weird and dont want to get additional chemicals on the wounds nor do I want to touch anything with it) then after, i dry it out a bit and take some nail clippers and slowly peel away. They are deep so just waiting for the bandaid to peel it off doesnt work for me. Also, they leave a stickiness from the bandaid on your nails and sometimes skin so be careful. I usually soak and rub it off. When I tell you, I havent seen my fingers by my cuticles so flat in years. It has removed a handful of it and is now down to the root, 2 weeks in. I must say, it was painful a little at first. More so of the feeling that it was sharp little pains since it is so deeply rooted (obviously it was working). They are thick bandaids so they can be hard to type on a keyboard. Make sure not to put these on open wounds. Only 2/4 there were some black specks coming out and turning darker. After checking it out and clipping some away (it was a part of the warts and was guessing it was dying or some dried blood from it uprooting) it was painless to cut away and a little satisfying and weird lol. I tried to use these on my feet but as a sweaty foot person (and summer at that) the bandaids slipped off so easily. I’m going to try again when the weather cools down and I start wearing socks over them (i have to wear heels and things for my job) Definitely recommend these to anyone who has tried everything but have had no results from anything else.
