Super LipCare+® Invisible Cold Sore Bandage

To achieve the best results when using Quantum Health's SuperLipCare Cold Sore Bandage on a cold sore, start by thoroughly cleaning and drying the affected area before applying the bandage. This ensures that the adhesive sticks properly and maintains a clean environment around the cold sore. Carefully follow the instructions provided with the bandages for proper placement. The bandage should be applied as soon as you notice signs of a cold sore outbreak, such as tingling or itching. Keep the bandage on until it detaches naturally, and replace it with a new one as needed. Using the bandage helps protect the sore from external irritants and contamination, and it can also hold medication in place if used in conjunction with Lip Clear Lysine+ cold sore ointment. Additionally, maintain good hygiene, avoid touching or picking at the sore, and consider supplementing your treatment with proper diet and stress management to support overall immune function and promote faster healing.

What causes a cold sore? Cold sores, also known as fever blisters, are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV), predominantly type 1 (HSV-1). The virus is highly contagious and can be transmitted through direct contact with an infected person's skin or saliva. Once HSV infects a person, the virus remains dormant in the body's nerve cells and can reactivate, leading to recurrent outbreaks of cold sores, typically around the lips or mouth.

Common triggers for cold sore outbreaks include stress, fatigue, exposure to sunlight or extreme weather conditions, hormonal changes (such as those during menstruation), weakened immune system, and even skin irritation or injury near the area of infection. Identifying and managing these triggers can help reduce the frequency of outbreaks.

There is currently no cure for cold sores. Once infected with the herpes simplex virus, it remains in the body for life. However, there are treatments available that can help reduce the severity and frequency of outbreaks, such as Lip Clear Lysine+ and SuperLysine+.
