The barrier shape determines how well the pouch fits against the body and around the stoma. Flat barriers are ideal for those with even peristomal skin, as they provide a snug fit without unnecessary pressure. Choosing the right shape minimizes leaks and maximizes comfort. The Marlen 52400 UltraMax Drainable Flat Pouch uses a flat, cut-to-fit barrier, which offers customizable sizing and a comfortable, low-profile fit. Flat options like this are beneficial for users who do not need convexity, and a range of flat barrier shapes are available to suit different preferences.
