ABSTRACT:
A device and method for applying substances to skin using an absorptive carrier in a laminate support. The support includes a first foam layer having a thickness of about 1 to 6 mm, a second foam layer having a thickness of about 1 to 6 mm bonded to the first foam layer and having a portion removed to house the carrier, and a metal foil between the first foam layer and the carrier housed in the second foam layer. The surface of the second foam layer which faces the skin may be surface texturized or have a fabric laminated thereon. A substance, such as a transdermally absorbable medicinal oil, is applied to the carrier and the carrier is replaceably inserted in the support. The support is then applied to the skin.
