Tsubuporon Night Patch

Tsubuporon Night Patch is a Japanese-made cosmetic overnight patch from the Tsubuporon brand, designed to be worn on a targeted spot while sleeping and peeled off in the morning. It is formulated with plant-derived ingredients including apricot seed extract, Japanese chestnut extract, coix seed extract, and licorice extract, and is sold at major Malaysian pharmacy retailers such as Watsons under listings such as “Night Patch Skintag (Peel Off)”. Contrary to what the “Tsubuporon” name might suggest to those unfamiliar with the brand, this product is intended for small skin tags and raised bumps on the body, not foot corns or calluses.

It is a cosmetic product (not a registered medicine) supplied in a 20g patch pack, dermatologically tested and manufactured in Japan. The transparent, discreet design is intended to be worn overnight without drawing attention, making it a popular choice among users who prefer an overnight skincare routine.

Tsubuporon Night Patch works by keeping a concentrated blend of botanical extracts in prolonged, occlusive contact with a targeted skin bump or tag throughout the night. Apricot seed extract and glycerin-type moisturising agents help soften the outer keratin layer of the small raised area, while Japanese chestnut extract, coix seed (Job’s tears) extract, and licorice extract are traditional ingredients used in Japanese skincare for their skin-conditioning properties.

Because the patch is left in place overnight, the ingredients have extended contact time with the targeted spot compared with a gel or cream that is not covered.

Clean and thoroughly dry the area to be treated before bedtime. Place one patch directly onto the bump or skin tag, pressing gently to ensure it adheres well, and leave it on overnight while you sleep. In the morning, gently peel the patch off, starting from one edge, and cleanse the area as usual. Repeat nightly for consistent results, and avoid applying a new patch to skin that is still irritated from the previous one.

Not applicable — Tsubuporon Night Patch is a topical cosmetic patch for external use only and is not taken orally or dosed like a medicine. One patch is generally applied to the targeted area once nightly.

Use Tsubuporon Night Patch before the expiry date printed on the packaging. Use each patch only once and discard it after removal; do not reuse a patch.

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity, and keep the pack sealed when not in use to preserve the adhesive quality of the remaining patches. Keep out of reach of children.

• Common: mild redness, itching, or dryness at the patch site, especially after the first few uses.
• Common: minor skin irritation from the adhesive, particularly with prolonged or repeated use on the same spot.
• Serious (rare): allergic contact reaction with persistent swelling, blistering, or spreading rash, which requires stopping use and seeking medical advice.

• Not for use on broken skin, open wounds, or actively infected skin.
• Not intended for moles, viral warts, or any lesion that is asymmetric, irregularly bordered, multi-coloured, enlarging, or bleeding — these require prompt medical evaluation rather than a cosmetic patch.
• Known hypersensitivity or allergy to any of the plant-derived ingredients or the adhesive used in the patch.
• Avoid use directly on or very close to the eyelids or eye area.

• Tsubuporon Night Patch is a topical cosmetic product with no known systemic drug interactions.
• Avoid using other topical treatments, exfoliants, or adhesive patches on the exact same spot at the same time, as this may increase irritation.
• No specific food interactions are known for this externally applied product.

• Apply the patch to clean, completely dry skin so it adheres well and stays in place overnight.
• Remove the patch gently in the morning, starting from one edge, to avoid unnecessary skin irritation.
• Use one fresh patch per night rather than reusing a patch to maintain hygiene.
• Give the area a short rest if it looks irritated before applying the next patch.
• Track progress with occasional photos if you want to monitor changes in the area over several weeks.
• Have any mole, changing spot, or unusual lesion checked by a doctor before treating it with this or any cosmetic patch.

Precautions: Tsubuporon Night Patch is intended for cosmetic use on small, non-medical skin tags and raised bumps only. Do not use it on broken skin, open wounds, or on moles, warts, or lesions that look unusual, are enlarging, or are changing colour or shape. Keep the patch away from the eyelids and eye area, and discontinue use if irritation persists.

When to See a Doctor or Pharmacist: See a doctor or dermatologist before using this patch if you are unsure whether the mark you want to treat is a simple skin tag or something that needs medical assessment, and stop use immediately if you notice increasing redness, swelling, pain, or signs of infection at the patch site.
