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.

Makes a huge difference

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.

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!

Site hero is just what my skin needed! I react to every infusion set I have found! Every infusion site change leaves a red, irritated spot on my body. Site hero has helped those red, irritated spots disappear! Healing is finally in site with site hero patches. Btw my skin does not usually like adhesives, but site hero does not irritate me! Thank you for helping my skin recover!

These are great! Barely notice the clear patch and it does help heal the injection site from Omnipod cannula removal. Also helps with the discomfort.
Now use it every time the omnipod 5 and Dexcom are changed. Highly recommend!

Not sure how much it’s working since we just got them. Hopping they work well.

I have used them on my legs for most of the site changes (the ones on my stomach were a good 7+ days/several weeks old so those had mostly healed/scarred on their own). It has seemed pretty cool, seeing the insertion site healing with the patch over it.

These are pretty amazing. I think some other folks have said and I will reiterate that fact. The swelling was gone after wearing these. normally it seems like a couple days after I pull a pump inset out there’s still some swelling. I will keep using these I would recommend them.

These patches have saved my skin from the pump cannula holes. They soothe the skin. No allergic reaction.

These work really well. I don't use them every time I change my site, but tend to put one on if I have a site that seems irritated or has some hardness. It takes care of it within a day - like the infusion site was never there!

I love these but, they are way too expensive to use regularly.

I have been using these for a few months now and I have definitely seen a difference in how I heal. Fewer hard spots. Fewer scars too. I use them for my Dexcom spots and my pump. I use true steel for my pump so those spots can get bad. Really glad I found this product. Love the convenience of the subscription too

Easy to use, effective at relieving irritated sites from insulin pump use.

Made my skin blister. As you can see in several of the before and after photos here in the reviews these patches do absolutely nothing at all. They are completely useless and unnecessary.

Hi Astrid, we’re sorry you experienced blistering while using Site Hero. We take reports like this seriously and would like to learn more about what happened. Our team will reach out directly so we can follow up appropriately. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Bought these for my son, he loves them for his omnipod site. He thought he ran out of them and said we have to order more now, I can’t run out of these.

It helps. It’s not perfect but the alternatives are creams or oils that are inconvenient on the go
