Hollister New Image Convex FlexWear Skin Barrier 13404 

Hollister New Image™ Convex FlexWear™ Skin Barrier – With Tape, Up to 51 mm Cut-to-Fit, 70 mm Flange (13404) is designed to provide a comfortable and secure foundation for compatible Hollister New Image™ two-piece ostomy pouching systems. Its convex design is intended to support a close fit around the stoma and help maintain a reliable seal during everyday ostomy care.

The FlexWear™ skin barrier provides a protective layer between the stoma output and the surrounding skin. Its flexible construction is designed to move with the body while maintaining contact with the skin, helping support comfort during daily activities.

The up to 51 mm cut-to-fit opening allows the barrier to be customized to the size and shape of the stoma. Properly sizing the opening can help create a close fit around the stoma and minimize unnecessary exposure of the surrounding skin.

This model features a tape border that provides additional adhesive coverage around the skin barrier. The 70 mm flange is designed for use with compatible Hollister New Image™ pouches, making it suitable for a two-piece ostomy system.

How to Use

Begin by gently removing the existing ostomy appliance. Clean the skin around the stoma with warm water and allow it to dry completely. Avoid oily creams, lotions, or other products that may interfere with adhesion.

Measure the stoma carefully using an appropriate stoma measuring guide. Since this is a cut-to-fit skin barrier, customize the opening to match the size and shape of the stoma, up to the specified 51 mm maximum. The opening should fit closely around the stoma without putting pressure on it.

Remove the protective backing from the skin barrier and carefully center the opening over the stoma. Gently press the barrier onto the clean, dry skin, starting around the stoma and working outward. Smooth the barrier and tape border with your fingers to encourage good contact with the skin.

Attach a compatible Hollister New Image™ pouch to the 70 mm flange according to the manufacturer's instructions. Check the connection to ensure the pouch is securely attached before use.

During wear, regularly inspect the barrier and surrounding skin for leakage, lifting, redness, irritation, or discomfort. If persistent leakage or skin irritation occurs, consult an ostomy nurse or healthcare professional.

Important Note

Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for use and confirm that the 70 mm flange is compatible with the selected New Image™ pouch. Proper stoma measurement and application are important for achieving a secure seal and supporting healthy skin around the stoma.
