Convexity provides extra support for stomas that are flush or retracted, helping to achieve a better seal and reduce leakage. While flat barriers are ideal for even skin surfaces, having the option to choose convexity ensures optimal fit for different body types. The Nu-Hope 40-7245 is a flat barrier, perfect for those with level peristomal skin, but many brands offer both flat and convex options. This variety allows you to select the most effective product for your stoma profile.
