Who this is for and usage tips
This skin barrier is designed for individuals needing a pre-cut, extended-wear solution with a convex profile to support skin protection around a stoma. It’s particularly helpful for those with recessed, retracted, or flush stomas seeking secure adhesion and minimized irritation. For best results, ensure the opening aligns well with the stoma and follow the included product instructions for wear time and changes. Store in a cool, dry place and keep out of reach of children.
In daily use, expect a secure barrier that stays in place over extended periods, with a focus on protecting the surrounding skin from discharge irritation. If irritation or a poor fit occurs, consult your care provider for guidance on alternative openings or barrier shapes.
