Hollister New Image Flextend Two-Piece Skin Barrier, Convex, Pre-Cut, 70 mm Flange

Description

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

The Hollister New Image Flextend Two-Piece Skin Barrier is the adhesive wafer base of Hollister's popular two-piece ostomy system. It features the trusted Flextend skin barrier, an extended-wear formulation that gently adheres to and protects your peristomal skin, along with built-in convexity that's ideal for recessed, retracted, or flush stomas. This barrier is designed for anyone who needs the added security and skin protection that a convex shape provides throughout a longer wear time.

What makes this barrier stand out is Hollister's exclusive floating flange, which flexes independently so you can attach or remove your pouch without pressing down on a tender, post-operative abdomen. The convex shape applies gentle pressure around the stoma to help it protrude for a more reliable seal, while the Flextend extended-wear barrier resists erosion from output and shields your skin from irritating discharge day after day. Because this is a two-piece system, you can change your pouch as needed without disturbing the barrier on your skin. Hollister uses a color-matching system to help you pair components correctly, and this barrier uses the blue 70 mm flange, which must match the coupling size of your New Image pouch.

These are pre-cut barriers, so they're ready to apply with no trimming, making them a great fit for a stable, healed stoma. This product features a 70 mm flange and is available in multiple pre-cut stoma-opening options, ranging from 1 5/8 inch to 2 inch, sold in a box of 5. All options are not made with natural rubber latex and are FSA/HSA eligible. Please select your size and option below to order the barrier that fits you best.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this a pouch or a skin barrier?
A: This is a skin barrier (also called a wafer or flange), the adhesive base of Hollister's New Image two-piece system. It is sold separately from the pouch, which snaps onto the flange.

Q: What size pouch do I need to pair with this barrier?
A: You'll need a Hollister New Image pouch with a matching 70 mm (blue) flange. The coupling size on the pouch must match the flange size of this barrier for a secure fit.

Q: Why should I choose a convex barrier?
A: The built-in convexity applies gentle pressure around the stoma to help recessed, retracted, or flush stomas protrude, improving the seal and helping protect your skin from leakage.

Q: What is the floating flange?
A: The floating flange flexes independently from your skin, letting you attach the pouch without pressing on your abdomen. This is especially comfortable for tender, post-operative skin.

Q: How long can I wear this barrier?
A: The Flextend extended-wear barrier is formulated to resist erosion from output and protect your skin over a longer wear time. Actual wear time varies by individual, output, and activity.
