Frequently asked questions
Is this barrier suitable for a retracted stoma?
Yes, this barrier features built-in convexity, which is specifically engineered to gently push the stoma outward. It is an ideal choice for patients with stomas that are flush with the skin, recessed, or retracted to help prevent leaks and skin irritation.
Does it cause discomfort during pouch changes?
Not at all. This product includes an exclusive floating flange design. This allows you to attach your ostomy pouch without applying direct pressure to your abdomen, making it especially comfortable during the delicate post-operative recovery phase.
How long can I wear this barrier?
The Flextend material is an extended-wear adhesive. It is formulated to be highly durable and specifically designed to resist breakdown from output, allowing for prolonged wear times while maintaining its integrity on the skin.
