Choosing the right skin barrier type is essential for maintaining skin health and ensuring a secure seal. Options include flat, convex, and deep convex barriers, each designed for different stoma profiles and skin contours. Convex and deep convex barriers are especially helpful for flush or retracted stomas, providing extra pressure to enhance the seal and reduce leakage. The Nu-Hope 8256-C features a convex skin barrier, while the Nu-Hope 8259-DC offers a deep convex barrier for even more support. With several barrier types available, you can choose what best suits your stoma and skin needs.
