Compound W Wart Remover Maximum Strength One Step Pads with Salicylic Acid, 14 Medicated Pads

I had a small growth on the side of my pointer finger that suddenly appeared 2 years ago. It was so small that it didn’t bother me. But over this last summer, it started to get bigger. I was actually able to clip it off...but within days, it would grow right back. After reading reviews- I settled on this product, mainly for the price and the pictures of results. I did what other successful reviewers said to do. Carefully place the medicine circle part of the bandaid over your growth, press it down so the medicine patch sticks, then wrap carefully to make sure that the medicine circle doesn’t move. That circle ⭕️ is where the medicine is. So if you don’t do it carefully enough- and the circle shifts- it won’t be effective. Take your time placing it. They are super sticky- so once you place it on there- it’s staying. Also, if your wart is bigger than a pea, I don’t feel like this would work, as the circle of medicine is only about that big. I used approx 2 bandaids per day, placing one in the morning, and then another in the evening. They are bandaids- they stick great, but if you wash hands often or do a lot of dishes by hand- you may need to replace more often. But listen- I did notice that it did MORE and was MORE effective, if I was able to keep the same bandaid in place for longer periods of time. I’m guessing the circle patch of medicine has to be in contact with your skin for a certain amount of time before it begins to break down. So in hind-sight, I probably should have bought some rubber gloves to wear during dish time. That’s when mine mostly fell off. I placed my first bandaid on in the morning and really didn’t notice anything but a “pruney” appearance to my finger for the next couple of days. I DID feel a tingly, almost burning sensation those first few days, but since other reviews warned of this, I don’t go ripping the bandaid off. Now- it wasn’t pain- just something I was aware of. So I kept carefully placing it on twice a day- and by the 3rd day- the magic circle started to do its job. My finger was so pruney under the bandaid (like I’d spent a lot of time in a bath) and the growth area started to feel tender. By day 5, it was starting to GROW and looked like a big white bubble. I took my nail clippers and carefully trimmed the dead white skin just a bit (yes- it turns it crazy white- like a white crayola crayon) but don’t mess with it too much, because it does feel tender and you don’t want to infect it. I woke up on day 8, and removed the last bandaid. I used all 14- the whole box. The wart did not magically fall off. But I took a pair of sanitized tweezers and was able to carefully lift it off. Every last bit of it just cleanly came away. No tugging or tearing- if it doesn’t cleanly lift off, use the bandaids a few more days. Don’t PANIC!!! It will look as though the medicine patch left a hole in your finger, and it will feel sore and tender. Mine was so tender that I wanted to put another (regular) bandaid over it, but it needs the air so the skin can dry out. So I left it alone. Within about a week the skin looked mostly better...but it was still a very tender spot on my finger. That feeling takes longer to go away. I waited almost 3 months to to write this review because I wanted to make sure it didn’t grow right back. And it hasn’t!!! Everything has healed and there is not a single spot to show it was ever even there!!! This stuff truly works!!! My photo is from right after- so you can see how it really goes down into layers of your skin- and shows why it will be sore and take some time to heal.

Within 6 days, my planter wart on my foot came off. I have had this wart for at least 3 years, but only recently found out it was a wart. I had several warts on my hands that were very bothersome and first used a H-warts oil which only left my sourrounding skin peeling with no change in the wart. I then decided to try the compound W gel on my hand warts, and although I had some of the skin on the top layers of my wart peel, it left my skin very dry and cracked and had to stop after a month of use with very little to show for it. After a couple weeks of healing, I decided to go for the bandaids, a month into using them, more and more layers of my warts were coming off with the help of some tweezers (some people on the reviews say they just fall off, but not for me) The bandaids sticky-ness is very good but not as waterproof as they claim to be. After the first month went by the adhesive from the bandaids were really messing up my nails leaving them sticky and having to continously try to scrape off what felt like super glue on my nails cuz I had 3 out of 5 warts by my nails. Looking back I probably could've used rubbing alcohol to get the adhesive off faster but honestly it was way too sticky for my sensitive skin, a lot of the surrounding skin got very dry and flaky and after the first month I had to take a break from them to heal my skin. I switched from using the bandaid they give you to a fabric bandaid that helped greatly. You can easily remove the medicated circle of acid and place it on your wart, or if you have a somewhat bigger wart and want to cover it all ( which i highly recommend) you can put more pads on to cover it up. Now just apply the bandaid, and you're set. Now in my experience of washing dishes and doing a lot of work with my hands, these bandaids don't last long. I had to buy a big box of 100. Its okay to get the warts wet, just take off the bandaid and the pad(s) and after you're done doing dishes/taking a shower (whatever) then put the pad(s) back on (if you haven't used them for 48 hours) and a fresh bandaid on. Yes this is a little bit of an annoyance. And these warts didn't go away til about 2 months. I had to buy at least 6 boxes of compound W bandaids and 2 boxes of regular bandaids, but eventually I picked them all off and my skin is healing great. And on the box they say you should have the bandaid on for 48 hours, which is impossible and super dirty. I used a set of pads for 48 hours, but changed bandaid 2 or 3 times a day. This helps you not go through so much pads, but just going through new regular bandaids, yes its gonna cost ya a little but if your not a person who can't go or won't go to a doctor, this will work, be patient, very very patient. A week after my hand warts left, I started on my foot. I was pleasantly suprised it took only 6 days, considering my hand warts were a lot longer. And I had them for about 2 years, the one on my foot a little longer. As you can see in the pictures, the first one is just the foot wart without any application. The second one is day 4 of 2 pads on the wart. The third picture is the wart all gone, fresh red skin that doesn't sting to the touch. Ta-da! Im amazed, give these a try if you have the patience (and the funds incase it takes long like mine)

This product is great at targeting a single wart. I used on my finger and it was cleared up in a day!! However if you have a cluster of warts in the same area, this product isn't for you. There's is a round spot in the middle of the square cushion part of the bandaid, and only the round spot will target the wart. The rest of the cushion part is just for show and will do nothing to help a wart if this part is placed over the wart.

WORKED! So a few things before you decide if it's right for you though: These are amazing and work, however, if you have sensitive skin or if your wart is somewhere that you care about what your skin looks like, don't use this. They will make your skin white around the wart due to the acid. It doesn't kill the skin, it just sheds the layers faster than skin normally sheds. So it'll also be sensitive after a few days and when the first white layer of skin falls off/sheds. Don't let that scare you though! It's not actually that painful! It's just a slight stinging, and honestly, it might not hurt for everyone. It was just a little bit for me. And it only happened when the skin was raw. Also, the bandaids are kinda iffy. Sometimes they'll stay on a while, sometimes they'll slip off easy. My advice for that? Clean the area with alcohol first. It'll get rid of the oil on your skin and help stick better. And Use them when you're less active (if they're on spots like fingers or feet. I had mine on my toe, so I mainly used the bandaids at night. Though I used them during the day too, they'd just fall off a bit easier during the day. I just reapplied another). I see why the Internet says it might take a few weeks now, for the bandaid acid method. They can fall off, so it's possible it'll take that long. But still cheaper than going to a dermatologist! Anyways.... My story shortened: Wart on the underside of my toe. Applied bandages (replaced when fell off, stayed on 24/7) Skin peeled off about a week into wearing them every day. Stung a little. Took a 2 day break for my skin to heal a bit. A few more days on the bandaids, the wart was gone. *So for me, I'd say it took about 2 weeks from start to finish. So depending on where your wart is and if you're cool with the bandaids there and if you're ok with a little bit of stinging, then these are PERFECT!!!! I'll never doubt these again! (And no, this isn't a paid review. I'm a real human that just got rid of a wart. 🤣)

Not nearly as effective as they were years ago. Active portion has definitely been reformulated in some way. They still work but take much longer as they are clearly less potent/aggressive.

*Included photos start to finish, some are gross but this is what you can expect if you use these but they WORK!!! Wart gone in 11 days! So I had no idea this bump that’s been on my finger for the past several years was actually a wart. I had picked it off once or twice, which was kinda painful (duh lol) and it grew back slightly bigger each time (again, duh). Once I finally figured out what it was and decided not to try to pick at it again (which was VERY tempting), I went ahead and bought these bandaids. Within about 2 weeks my wart is COMPLETELY gone and healing! I’d say by about day 3 you could definitely see the product working (my skin turned white and was peeling off) but it really wasn’t painful. I did end up with slight skin irritation and stopped using them for a few days to let my healthy surrounding skin heal and slowly peeled or trimmed off the dead skin. It does look gross while the treatment is working, but trust the process! Eventually it turned into a scab that started peeling off on its own, but I slowly removed it since I didn’t need that hanging off my finger lol in the photo you can still see the blood vessels (the black dots), so I did one more bandage (I wanna say I used maybe 6 total? They’re not 100% waterproof but they hold up VERY well in water!) so I didn’t use the entire pack like I thought I’d have to. The next day the dots were gone and today it’s all healing and zero tenderness or pain! Woo hoo! Before and during treatment it was definitely tender to put pressure on it. Now it’s just slightly pink while it’s still healing, but I am thrilled it’s finally gone!!!

Worked very well. My 12 year old had a stubborn wart on her knee. We first tried the paint on wart remover. It did not work well since it was such a large raised wart it was difficult to contain the liquid to only touch the wart and not run onto the healthy skin around it. Next we went to the pediatrician and had them freeze it. They said it might require a second treatment in 2 weeks. That led me to these bandaids. I didn’t not really want to take her to the pediatrician for more freezing. We applied one of these bandaids. We changed it after 1 day but I’m not sure we needed to since the first one was very difficult to remove, I wish we would have just left it on. They are very sticky! By the second bandaid/second day the wart was treated and came off when removing the bandaid. There is a scab there and it’s ever so slightly raised but I will check to see if it’s truly gone once it heals more. She can at least wear shorts now as the weather is warming up. I will be keeping these on hand now. Way cheaper and easier than paint on kind or having it frozen off at the drs (which didn’t even work!)

I ordered this about a week ago, so far the results are amazing. TRUST THE PROCESS. It’s not going to work instantly but, give it time. The only issue I have are the bandages not staying on very well. But I’ve learned to put another regular bandage on top of it so it can get the full 48 hours!

Amazing. Worked quickly

Good product

I had two different warts. One only required one application for the 48hours (on toe) and the other required 4 bandaids total (on middle finger). However it became more difficult to keep the bandaids on because I have been doing lots of hand washing. So each stayed on for about 24 hours and at times I applied medical tape over the bandaid. These bandaids stick fairly well but not with a tone of hand washing. Overall fast and affective and painless. IMO better then just the gel you can buy. Definitely give it a try.

It really worked for me. Wart on my finger got completely removed and did not return.
