Hollister New Image Flextend Two-Piece Skin Barrier, Convex, Pre-Cut, 1-3/4 Inch Flange

Description

Hollister New Image Flextend Two-Piece Skin Barrier, Convex, Pre-Cut

The Hollister New Image Flextend skin barrier is the adhesive wafer base of Hollister's popular two-piece ostomy system. Built with the trusted Flextend skin barrier formulation for extended wear, it features built-in convexity that gently applies pressure around the stoma to help recessed, retracted, or flush stomas protrude for a more secure, leak-resistant fit. It's an excellent choice for anyone whose stoma sits at or below skin level and who needs dependable, all-day protection.

Because this is a two-piece system, the barrier stays put on your skin while a separate New Image pouch snaps onto the 1-3/4 inch flange. This lets you remove, change, or empty your pouch without disturbing the adhesive seal or your peristomal skin. The exclusive floating flange flexes independently, so you can attach the pouch without pressing down on tender post-operative abdomens - a real comfort advantage. Throughout the wear time, the Flextend barrier shields your skin from irritating discharge, helping keep the surrounding area healthy and intact.

This is a pre-cut barrier with a ready-to-apply 5/8 inch stoma opening - ideal for a stable, healed stoma - and a 1-3/4 inch (green color-coded) flange that must match your New Image pouch coupling size. It is not made with natural rubber latex and is FSA/HSA eligible. Please confirm the flange size and select your option below to order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this a pouch or a skin barrier?
A: This is a skin barrier (wafer/flange) only - the adhesive base of a two-piece system. You'll pair it with a matching Hollister New Image pouch that snaps onto the 1-3/4 inch flange.

Q: What does the convex shape do?
A: The built-in convexity applies gentle pressure around the stoma to help flush, recessed, or retracted stomas protrude, improving the seal and reducing the risk of leaks.

Q: What is the floating flange?
A: The floating flange flexes independently from your skin, so you can click the pouch on without pushing down on your abdomen - especially helpful during post-operative healing.

Q: How long can I wear this barrier?
A: It's an extended wear barrier designed to resist breakdown from output and protect your skin over a longer wear time. Actual wear varies by individual; change it if you notice leakage or skin irritation.

Q: Do I need to cut the opening?
A: No. This is a pre-cut barrier with a ready-to-use stoma opening, so there's no trimming required - just make sure the size matches your stoma.
