## Description

Product Description HERPOTHERM® formerly known as Hot Kiss®. Treat that tingle! Stop that Cold Sore appearing!.. Herpotherm® is a revolutionary new way to combat cold sores. When used at the tingle stage an outbreak can actually be prevented. Even if your cold sore has already started to come out this heat stick can significantly reduce the size and extent of the sore.

This is a medical device developed, made and tested in Germany which has been designed to prevent the development and advancement of the herpes simplex infection. How the Herpotherm® works: The device works by means of a concentrated heat source of between 50-51°c. This prevents the herpes simplex virus from reproducing. Indications For the prevention and healing of cold sores (herpes simplex) Ingredients Herpotherm applicator, disinfectant wipes, battery, instructions Directions Take off cap. Apply applicator to affected area. Activate Herpotherm device. Warning sounds after 4 seconds, please remove device and repeat if necessary. Safety Warning For hygeine purposes, Herpotherm should only be used by one person Box Contains 1 unit

Review: Updated review- now I love it. - Edit:I thought it only fair that I update my scaving review of this product. Initially I used it on developed sores, which had little to no effect and I found other treatments more effective. This can make my lips raw which feels like it does help spread already nasty sores. However. This works incredibly well for me on 'tingles'. Usually a tingle means a sore, regardless of what I try. Bit this Herpotherm has become my go to device, I try to keep it with me at all times. One or two blasts usually stops a sore from developing. If you suffer from cold sores, you'll know that the 'tingle' phase can feel different each time, for me when my lip stings but there is no blister developed yet I know I'm getting a monster sore that will really bother me. This device stops these stings/tingles almost immediately and almost without fail for me. I'm dreading the day this packs in, because there seems to be quality control issues with the newer devices and my device lasts a long time on battery. ------------------ This is a terrible device and a terrible idea. I bought this in preparation of the next attack. I get cold sores regularly and I find them incredibly painful. On a scale of one to 10 I rate coldsores at an 8. They have a big impact on my life. This morning I felt the itch and decided to try the 'Herpotherm' device that I bought a few months ago. I found it quite painful to use initially, but obviously didn't want to write it off after one use. Initially it did stave off the tingling feeling for a few minutes, but it came back again. Worried about using it again, I left it a few hours before using it again, by this point the blister hadn't quite appeared, but I could feel it coming, so had to do something. I used it again, it really hurt this time, my lip swelled up and the coldsore has flourished like it has never flourished. My lip is swollen, it actually looks burned, the surround area is very red and the blisters look yellowish and are so painful that I am concerned that they are infected. The cold sore has 'grown' quicker than normal and it feels much more painful than my usual cold sores. The thought of using it again is unbearable. I'm never putting this thing near my face again, and I wouldn't recommend anyone else does either. All it does is burns your lip and creates the perfect environment for a coldsore to flourish, it will make your lip very red and tender and a little swollen. I'm sure it's an idea that works in a lab on viruses in Petri dishes, but not a human face that is sensitive.
Review: It really works! - Like other reviewers, this is the first time that I have been moved to review a product. I was skeptical but like most cold sore sufferers, I was desperate to try anything. It really, really does work though! I ordered the Herpotherm once I already had a cold sore so wasn't sure whether it would work. It arrived while I was at blister stage but thought it was worth trying anyway. I used it constantly for 2 days (every couple of hours) and the cold sore was gone. It was still a little red and swollen but the pain was gone and it felt dead. My cold sores usually last at least 2 weeks and then another 1-2 weeks for the redness to go. Using the Herpotherm made it disappear in less than a week. I was still dubious about whether it had worked and thought that maybe this sore was just going already on its own. I have waited until after another attack to write this review because I wanted to see the effect from tingle stage. I can now report that it works amazingly from tingle, pre-blister stage! As soon as I felt the cold sore, I started using it approx. 6 times a day, 3 bursts at 10 second intervals as recommended. 48 hours later, it is completely gone. Only a slightly dry patch of skin. Completely amazing. It is quite painful to use but not unbearable. As soon as you feel like it is too much, the little red light goes out to signal the heat burst is finished. And I would much rather have these tiny 5 second bursts than over 2 weeks of pain and illness of cold sores. Buy it now!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am very happy to report that this actually works
*by P***I on 9 February 2016*

I am very happy to report that this actually works. Whenever I feel the usual tingling sensation on my lips(usually on a day that my body feels weak, due to lack of sleep/hard gym training/feeling under the weather), I use it 2-3 consecutive times on the affected spot and then proceed using one of the "over the counter" creams(ie zovirax, which on its own usually cannot prevent it from appearing a few minutes later). I consistently get no cold sores at all this way. It cannot be just a coincidence and I doubt it's just the placebo effect. I've had the device for a few months now and I am pretty sure it prevented cold sores from appearing at least 5-6 times till now. The pain doesn't seem that bad to me and it only lasts 2-3sec anyway. I am very happy with the product. I won't give a 5-star rating just because of the manufacturing quality. It's not sturdy/robust at all for it's price(it's just a piece of plastic with a ceramic point and the circuit inside it is very simple/cheap to make). If it won't fail for the next 2-3 years, then money well spend. I spend a lot more on creams/balms/patches etc anyway.
