The 3-in-1 Formulation: More Than a Hydrocolloid

  • Hydrocolloid

    Medical-grade hydrocolloid creates the ideal recovery climate for our ingredients to work. A breathable, moisture-balancing seal that keeps skin comfortably protected.
  • Squalane

    A lightweight lipid that replenishes the skin barrier and helps maintain moisture balance—fast-absorbing, non-greasy, and made for sensitive skin.
  • Vitamin C (THD-Ascorbate)

    Lipid-soluble Vitamin C enables collagen production for smoother, stronger-looking skin and provides antioxidant defense against stress.
  • Bisabolol

    Plant-derived calm for sensitive skin. Known to soothe and reduce the look of redness, helping skin stay comfortable after device or adhesive removal.

How it Works

  • Remove After removing a CGM, infusion set, or completing an injection, gently clean and fully dry the site.
  • Apply Place Site Hero directly over the spot. Press gently to ensure full contact with the skin.
  • RECOVER Leave on for 24–72 hours for best results.
  • Rotate Peel off gently and continue rotating to a new site as usual.

Wear-time recommendations

  • Overnight (first try)
  • 24 hours (better)
  • 48–72 hours (best)

Tip: A light red outline after removal is common and typically fades within 10–20 minutes.

FAQ

Find the most frequently asked questions below.
  • Site Hero® is a medical grade hydrocolloid-based cosmetic patch designed to help soothe, calm, and support skin recovery after an injection, insulin pump or CGM site removal. It combines the healing-support of hydrocolloid with Vitamin C (THD form), Alpha Bisabolol, Linoleic and Oleic Acids, and Squalane to leave skin looking and feeling healthier.

  • Immediately after an injection or after removing your infusion set or CGM, clean and dry the area. Apply one patch directly over the site. Wear for up to 72 hours, then remove and discard. Use as often as needed to help support skin recovery.

  • Yes! Site Hero is designed to support skin after both pump infusion set changes and CGM insertions. A 12-pack is designed to last one month for typical site change schedules.

  • Site Hero goes on the skin after a device comes off, so it works with any CGM (like Dexcom or Libre), pod (like Omnipod), or tubed or steel infusion set, as well as injection sites. Apply it to clean, dry skin once the device has been removed, not underneath an active device.

  • For a typical site-change schedule, a 12-pack lasts about one month, a 24-pack about two months, and a 36-pack about three months. Subscribe & Save keeps them arriving so you never run out.

  • Site Hero is latex free and paraben free, and has been awarded the National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance™. If your skin is very sensitive, try one patch overnight first. A light red outline right after removal is common and usually fades within 10–20 minutes. If you notice blistering, itching, or irritation that doesn’t fade, stop using it and talk to your healthcare provider.

  • Yes. Every US order ships free, with no minimum. We also ship to Canada, the UK, and select European countries; shipping for those orders is shown at checkout. Site Hero is also available on Amazon in the US and Canada.

  • Yes. You can change, pause, or cancel your Subscribe & Save plan anytime.

I like the option that it can help with scarring. Hard to tell if they work yet.

Never even thought about this product

Works as advertised. Easy to use, simply to apply. After leaving on for 24 hours, there's barely a noticeable mark where the site was. I forget it's there, since it blends with the skin so I sometimes leave it for more than 24 hours...not sure if that matters.

I really like these to help my Dexcom G7 15-day and Omnipod 5 sites recover. The only downside is the high price.

Purchased a small pack to try as my husband and I are both long time t1d s…… however it has been 3 weeks since ordering and paying and no items have arrived. My attempts to reach out to the company has gotten zero response…… so giving a bad review in hopes that their customer service sees this and does the right thing (ie) responds, provides a refund and sends us samples free of charge.

Ashley, we’re sorry. Your order was shipping from our US warehouse to Canada, and after the label was printed, tracking showed it got stalled in the FedEx distribution. That’s on us, and so is how long it took us to answer your emails. We’ve issued a full refund and are sending you a replacement at no cost through Amazon.ca. Canadian customers can also find Site Hero on Amazon.ca for faster delivery. – Kent, Founder

Wow, I wasn't sure how these Site Hero patches were going to perform, but after using them for a few weeks, I have to say that I'm impressed! After removing my Omnipod, my sites would take weeks to properly heal, but now, after 3 days of wearing a Site Hero patch, my sites are healed and no longer red! Thank you for creating this product! You have a customer for life!

Worked better than expected. I immediately bought more.

Very happy with results, as someone who changes pod sites every 2-3 days and sensors twice a month any relief is appreciated. The adhesive adheres to the skin and genuinely helps in healing

So far so good, have used 6 of them and the best part is how it's soooo much smaller than a giant band aid. Big fan.

I really do like these patches; they have been a blessing in disguise. I only wish they worked on my past insertion sights, then i wouldn't have any scares anywhere. So happy Site Hero popped up in my feed. I will be making these a staple in my diabetes care.

These make such a difference in the healing of my old pump and cgm sites. I notice the tenderness and redness in my skin alleviate much more quickly. So glad I clicked on an ad for these!

This product did not work for me. I left the patch on for about 48 hrs. The adhesive was too strong and it actually reacted badly with my skin. I was left with a discolored rashy circle when I removed it. My skin is not that sensitive, so I was surprised.

We’re very sorry the patch caused irritation and left a discolored, rashy mark. That’s certainly not the experience we want anyone to have with Site Hero, and we understand your disappointment. Thank you for letting us know.

We will reach out directly and appreciate the opportunity to make this right.

I bought these for my partner with type 1 diabetes. This has been a game changer for the scar tissue and inflammation around his sites. This works so well!

Ever since I started using Healthy Sites (and saw it does to reduce inflammation to even the most intense cases, such as gushers), it has become a standard for me following every pump site change. I recommend it to everyone I talk to when I learn they are on an insulin pump or injections.

I’ve been using site hero for about a month. I’ve noticed quick healing on all my sites, a little more on the ones that have bruised or bled. Site hero is now a must have for me!! 😊

I noticed that when I changed the site on my belly it would remain red for days. Using Site Hero helps relieve the redness and heal the site faster.

These things really do work well! I often can’t even tell where my site was after removing them. I will say that they only work if you put them on immediately, once your site has scabbed, it wont help at all. Also, not good to leave them on more than 12 hours, but they blend in so well, I sometimes forget!

I have been a type 1 for over 40 years and have always had a pump. These little patches really help with healing when I take out an infusion set or a sensor. Thank you for such a great product!

The Site hero patches are great. I have found that the areas where I apply them seem to heal quicker and are less sore in the long run.

My item was returned sitting insufficient address. The complete address was typed in but wasn’t listed on the shipping label. i am very disappointed and will not be reordering. I went to the post office and was given a print out that showed the address was improperly put in your system. Please process my refund immediately.

We’re so sorry your order didn’t reach you and that you had to spend time following up with the post office. We understand your disappointment and will be happy to process a full refund.

Shipping labels are generated from the address submitted at checkout, and we’d appreciate the opportunity to look into why the complete address wasn’t reflected on yours. We will look into the return to sender and reach out directly.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

I did not notice any type of quick recovery when applied. The patch also left a slight red mark on my skin that lasted for several days after removing. Not impressed. Might work for some people, but did not work for me. Disappointed for the price I paid.

We see a big difference in the healing process since beginning with site hero. It's an easy part of the routine that helps my young daughter heal after diabetes pump site changes.

I love these patches so much. I wish I’d had them for the last 44 years. I don’t have as many bumps so I feel like I can insert my pump or glucose monitor around the same spot. I truly think they’re wonderful. I will be a customer for a long time.

As an insulin pump user for many years, I decided to try the Site Hero patches due to increasing areas on my abdomen that were no longer receptive to insulin absorption. I knew I was going to run out of useable areas if something didn't change. I've been consistently using the patches for a couple of months now and have definitely noticed a major decrease in the hard lumps and inflammation I used to have after removing a canula. For me, the hard spots are gone after a few days covered with a Site Hero patch. I've had no issues whatsoever with them and find they stick great and I forget they are even there until I've cycled back to that spot and discover the patch is still on!
