The efficacy and comfort of these products hinge entirely on their construction. High-quality patches are typically crafted from natural, breathable fibers such as soluble cotton or cellulose, which allow skin to maintain its natural respiration overnight. The adhesive is a critical component; it must be strong enough to stay securely in place for 6-8 hours through natural facial movements, yet gentle enough to remove without irritation or residue. This adhesive is usually derived from plant-based sources like gum arabic. The patches come in precise shapes tailored to specific regions: wider bands for the forehead, smaller triangles for the crow’s feet, and delicate strips for the upper lip or neck, ensuring targeted application.
