It has been 2 months post-using and I have developed pelvic pain. Doctors can not figure out what is wrong. I'm thinking now it may have been these patches!

Used as directed 4 hours first day…

Used as directed 4 hours first day left a red rash the same size as the patch Used on the 2nd day and it burnt and tore skin from my stomach. This product should be banned and a class action taken against the manufacturer. It is a very dangerous product.

DO NOT BUY THESE!!

I ordered these in July and used them according to the directions for 2 weeks. I had to stop using them because of the chemical burn they gave me. The patches left an angry red patch on my skin everywhere it touched and it felt like a bad sunburn. It's been two weeks since I stopped using them and my skin now has what feels like a scab on it. I did not lose any weight nor did I feel anything while the patch was on. I felt no appetite control or increased energy during the time I used them. The patches were hard to peel the backing off of and hurt when you take them off (and I have a fairly high pain tolerance). Overall I would NOT RECOMMEND. This was a waste of money and my time. I have searched the website and can find no information about how to return them or get my money back on the 2 unopened packs I have.

What a rip

I am on a 5000kj a day diet losing weight in most places except my belly, so I purchased 2 packets (20 patches) of Parxal to help me lose belly fat. I followed the instructions to the letter for 40 days and never lost even 1 mm. Very disappointed and I have come to the conclusion I have been ripped and from reading the other reviews I’m not the only one. All I can say is if your thinking of buying this product don’t it’s a complete waste of time, stick to walking you’ll get far better results.

The patches are extremely difficult to get the backing off. I gave up after 15 minutes of trying. The arm patches were easier to get on, but are NOT to be used on loose upper arm skin. It hurt like he'll getting them off. Worse $85 I have ever spent!!!!!!!!!

Total rubbish - don't waste your money!

Total rubbish. This is a scam product!!! If I could give it 0 stars I would do so. Like previous customers' reviews, I cannot believe I was taken in by the company's claims. As soon as I opened the packet I realised they are just giant plasters. I decided having spent quite a lot of money on them, I ought to at least give one a try to see if I felt any different. It gave me massive skin burns on my stomach and that's all... it will never help people lose weight! Don't waste your money. It took ages to come from China and they must be laughing all the way to the bank!!!

Reaction to glue

When I first tried these I thought they seemed to be helping. I re-ordered & they have a different glue. My stomach turned bright red & was so painful. They gave me what I could only describe as a chemical burn. I can still see the discolouration on my stomach from the one I took off at the end of Sept.(it's now January)

I’ve been unbelievably stupid

I cannot believe that I allowed myself to believe that wearing one of these patches would shrink my stomach area ! Totally useless. They did not curb my appetite at all. Waste of money. Don’t be fooled….the only way to lose weight is to eat less and do more excercise !

Don't fall for this crap

Don't fall for this crap. They say don't let the patches stick together or on anything other than it's bought for. Because it is REALLY sticky. True. But that's it. Nothing else is. I wish I'd read reviews first don't know about the refund side of things yet so can't comment on that. But I'll give PayPal a try first though I don't think they can do anything cos it's been a couple of weeks now and I'm sure they can only help if it's within the first few minutes of certifying your order they can "grab" the cash back but now I don't know but I'll try anyway. But please don't bother with these wasters. You might as well go and flush your money down the loo. And probably git a better chance of getting it back from what's been said on here.

This is a complete scam

This is a complete scam. Money for jam. Yes I am embarrassed and these advertising companies need to be held accountable. Had to shave my hair and wear this cloth that is sticky and does nothing. Warning do not buy.

Absolute rubbish… I am embarrassed I was foolish enough to fall for this offer. The patches have done nothing alongside excercise and sensible eating. Just a rash on stomach from the adhesive and sore skin from removing them. Don’t waste your money.
