- Latex-free and discreet, day or night
A cut-to-size hydrocolloid roll for pimples, blisters, calluses, and minor skin breaks, trim any size patch from one 5-foot roll — 120 square inches of material, so the piece count depends on the size you cut. ISO 13485 medical-device manufacturing.
Ovena's cut-to-size hydrocolloid roll lets you trim a custom patch for pimples, blisters, calluses, minor cuts, and small skin breaks. On contact it forms a protective gel seal that absorbs fluid, supports the moist environment skin repair depends on, and shields the area from friction and picking. Latex-free and discreet enough to wear day or night.

Cut it, wrap it, done.
Video plays on tap. Nothing but the still image loads until you press play.
Cut to size
Cut exactly the patch you need.
Set a size and the bench draws it at scale, shows how the 2 inch roll divides around it, and counts what each roll length gives you.
Hold any bank card against the bar and drag until the widths match. The bench then draws at true physical size.
Common cuts
The roll divides into 5 lanes at this width.
Counts assume a 0.5 mm allowance between cuts along the roll; lengthwise lanes share a single cut. Figures are rounded down and capped at the pack count.
Why a roll
Start with a roll. Cut the shape you need.
A continuous 2-inch roll lets you choose the piece, long or short, a wide strip or a small square, instead of fitting a pre-cut pad to the area. Trim with scissors, apply, and you're set. Follow the package directions.

One roll, any shape
Cut exactly what the spot needs.
Trim a dot for a spot, a strip for a heel, a wrap for a finger — one roll covers what a box of fixed-size patches can't.
For everyday skin protection and coverage. Not a medicated acne treatment. For active or cystic breakouts, see a clinician.

Great pimple patch
This hydrocolloid tape has helped me so much with clearing up my pimples. With school coming up I have been trying to find affordable and reliable skin care and this was just the right thing. This is what I will definitely be using leading up to homecoming and picture day. I really recommend if you are looking for a cheaper alternative to the pimple patches that target sells.

I love it!
Got this product, helped a lot with my acne. I’ve been using mighty patch for about a year now. After around one week using this helped clear my acne so much. Much more cost effective and better results!
