The shape of a skin barrier, such as flat or convex, affects how well it fits and seals around the stoma, influencing comfort and leak protection. Flat barriers are suitable for even skin surfaces, while convex barriers, like Convatec 413180 and Convatec 404592, provide extra support for retracted or uneven stomas. Convatec offers both shapes, allowing users to select the ideal product for their unique anatomy.
