Frequently asked questions

Does the barrier provide long-term skin protection?

Yes, this barrier is specifically engineered with Flextend technology. This advanced hydrocolloid material is designed for extended wear, ensuring the skin remains protected and healthy even during long-term use.

Is the attachment mechanism secure?

Absolutely. It features a patented floating flange system that includes an audible “click” feature. This allows you to confirm that your pouch is locked securely into place, providing extra peace of mind.

Do I need to use extra adhesive tape?

No extra tape is required. The barrier is designed with tapered edges that eliminate the need for supplementary adhesive tape, which helps reduce bulkiness and improves overall comfort.

Is this barrier compatible with my current system?

This product is part of the Red Code System. It is fully integrated to ensure a perfect, seamless match with all corresponding pouches and accessories within that specific product line.

Is the material gentle on the skin?

The barrier is constructed from premium hydrocolloid material. This material is well-regarded for its skin-friendly properties, making it an excellent choice for extended wear scenarios.

Is the application process quick?

Yes, the barrier is precut, meaning it is ready for immediate use right out of the package. This saves time during your daily routine and ensures a precise fit.

Does the flat profile affect comfort?

The flat-depth profile is specifically chosen to maintain a low-profile aesthetic. Combined with the tapered edges, it helps the barrier remain discreet and comfortable under clothing.

Can I use my FSA funds for this purchase?

Yes, this item is FSA eligible, allowing you to use your flexible spending account funds for this medical necessity.

How do I know the flange size is correct?

This specific unit features a 57 mm flange and a 1-3/8 inch opening. It is essential to ensure these dimensions align with your current pouch requirements to maintain the integrity of the Red Code System seal.

Is the floating flange hard to manage?

The floating flange is designed to simplify the attachment process. By providing a flexible docking mechanism, it reduces pressure on the abdomen during application while maintaining a robust, secure seal.
