Frequently asked questions
Why choose this FlexTend barrier over standard ones?
The FlexTend material is specifically engineered for extended-wear applications. It provides superior durability and high-performance skin protection, making it ideal for users who need a longer-lasting, reliable solution for stoma management.
Does this barrier work with all Hollister pouches?
This barrier is part of the New Image line. It is compatible with any New Image drainable, closed, or urostomy pouch that features a 44mm flange (identified by the green color-coding).
Is the convex shape helpful for a secure seal?
Yes, the convex design is a key feature that assists in providing a more reliable and secure seal. This shape is specifically designed to improve the interface between the skin and the barrier, which is essential for effective stoma management.
What is the benefit of the floating flange?
The integrated floating flange allows you to attach your pouch without having to apply direct pressure to the abdomen. This makes the application process more comfortable, especially for those with sensitive skin or post-operative sites.
How do I know if this 44mm flange is the right size?
This barrier uses Hollister’s green color-coding system. Simply check your current pouch or documentation to see if it also requires a green-coded system (44mm). This makes selecting the correct, matching components much easier.
Is the 19mm stoma opening adjustable?
No, this specific model comes with a pre-cut 19mm stoma opening. It is intended for users who require this exact pre-cut size for a consistent and ready-to-use fit.
Are these barriers suitable for sensitive skin?
The FlexTend material is formulated to be gentle while providing high-performance protection. However, because skin sensitivity varies, the extended-wear nature of this barrier is designed specifically to maintain skin health over longer durations.
How many barriers come in a single box?
Each box contains 5 individual New Image FlexTend Skin Barriers.
Is this an extended-wear product?
Yes, this is an extended-wear skin barrier. It is designed to offer increased longevity and durability compared to standard wear options.
Is it comfortable to wear all day?
The barrier features a flexible, low-profile design intended to sit seamlessly against your skin. The extended-wear formulation is specifically intended for comfort throughout longer periods of use.
