Description

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

The Hollister New Image Flextend Two-Piece Skin Barrier is the adhesive wafer base of Hollister's popular New Image two-piece system, designed to protect your peristomal skin while a separate New Image pouch snaps securely onto the flange. It features Hollister's Flextend skin barrier, an extended-wear formulation built to resist erosion from output and keep skin healthy over longer wear times. This pre-cut, flat barrier with a floating flange is ideal for people with a stable, healed stoma that protrudes normally and who want a dependable, low-fuss base for their two-piece pouching routine.

The floating flange flexes independently of your skin, so you can attach the pouch without pressing down on or around your stoma - a real comfort advantage. Hollister's patented locking system delivers an audible click when the pouch is seated, giving you the reassurance of a secure connection. Because it's a two-piece system, you can remove, empty, or change your pouch as needed without disturbing the barrier that's protecting your skin, and the tapered edges of the Flextend barrier hug the body smoothly to help eliminate the need for extra tape. Hollister uses a color-matching system to help you pair the right barrier and pouch; this barrier is coded red.

This barrier is pre-cut, so there is no trimming required - simply apply and go. It is available in multiple flange and stoma-opening options, so be sure to match the flange size of this barrier to your New Image pouch. Like all ostomy products we carry, it is not made with natural rubber latex and is FSA/HSA eligible. Please select your size and option below to order the fit that's right for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this a pouch or just the skin barrier?
A: This is the skin barrier (wafer/flange) only - the adhesive base of Hollister's New Image two-piece system. A compatible New Image pouch snaps onto the flange and is purchased separately.

Q: What does the floating flange do?
A: The floating flange flexes independently from your skin so you can couple the pouch to the barrier without having to press against your stoma or abdomen, making application more comfortable and secure.

Q: How do I choose the right flange size?
A: The flange (coupling) size of the barrier must match the flange size of your New Image pouch. Hollister's color-matching system helps - this barrier is red. Choose your flange and stoma-opening from the options above.

Q: Do I need to cut the opening?
A: No. This is a pre-cut barrier, ideal for a stable, healed stoma. There's no trimming required - just apply.

Q: How long can I wear it, and is it latex-free?
A: The Flextend barrier is an extended-wear formulation designed to protect skin over longer wear times. It is not made with natural rubber latex and is FSA/HSA eligible.
