Convexity determines how the flange fits against the body and is essential for those with retracted or hard-to-fit stomas. Convex flanges gently push the skin around the stoma, helping to create a secure seal and reduce leakage, while flat/non-convex flanges are ideal for stomas that protrude well. Assura offers both convex options (like Coloplast 12704) and flat/non-convex options (such as Coloplast 2882), ensuring users can choose the type that best matches their anatomy and stoma profile. This variety allows for personalized care and optimal comfort.
