I had high hopes for the Medagel Hexagels Plus Aloe Vera pads—they seemed like the perfect solution for protection and treatment. However, I have to be honest—it didn't quite live up to my expectations. At first, they seemed comfortable enough, and I appreciated the added bonus of aloe vera. But unfortunately, they just wouldn't stay in place. Every time they shifted, it left me with blisters in all the wrong places. I even tried using tape to keep them secure, but it still didn't do the trick. I really wanted to love these pads, but in the end, I was left feeling neutral about them. While they may work for some, they just didn't work for me. It's disappointing, but hey, not every product is a perfect fit. If you're considering trying them, just be aware of the potential for movement and adjust accordingly.

I have always used 2nd skin squares to cover my blisters. With those I experienced a bit of movement when taping them over my blisters but they maintain their shape well. These almost immediately dissolve into very sticky/ gross balls of goo that serve no purpose. I gave mine away and switched back to 2nd skin. I won’t buy these again.
