This Hollister CeraPlus Convex Skin Barrier is designed for individuals with retracted, flush, or folded stomas, offering a secure and skin-friendly solution within the New Image two-piece pouching system. Its key benefit is promoting peristomal skin health through ceramide infusion, while a potential consideration is the pre-sized opening which may require careful selection for a precise fit. The barrier features a convex shape for gentle pressure, integrated tape for security, and is made without natural rubber latex.

CeraPlus technology is an infusion of ceramide, a natural component of healthy skin, into the skin barrier. It helps to protect the skin's natural moisture barrier, maintain skin hydration, and reduce transepidermal water loss, promoting healthier peristomal skin.
This convex skin barrier is specifically designed for individuals with stomas that are retracted, flush with the skin, or located in skin folds. The convex shape applies gentle pressure to help the stoma protrude.
No, this barrier is part of the Hollister New Image two-piece pouching system and is compatible only with other Hollister New Image pouches that have a matching coupling mechanism.
No, this Hollister CeraPlus Convex Skin Barrier is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a suitable option for individuals with latex sensitivities.
The extended wear formulation is designed for long-lasting adhesion, providing a secure seal for an extended period. However, wear time can vary based on individual skin type, activity level, and stoma output.
A pre-sized opening means the barrier comes with a fixed opening size that does not require cutting. This simplifies the application process for users whose stoma size and shape match the pre-cut opening.
The integrated tape border provides a larger adhesive surface area around the edge of the barrier. This offers additional security and helps to ensure a reliable seal, especially on uneven skin surfaces or when extra confidence is needed.
Ensure skin is completely clean and dry before application. Check that the barrier opening is the correct size and not too tight. Consider using a skin barrier wipe to prepare the skin. If irritation persists, consult with a healthcare professional.
Ensure the skin is free of hair, lotions, and powders. Warm the barrier with your hands before application to activate the adhesive. Apply gentle, even pressure during application. The integrated tape border can help secure edges, especially on uneven skin.
While pre-sized for convenience, if the opening is significantly off, consider using a different size barrier or a barrier that allows for custom cutting if your stoma shape requires it. Practice may improve centering accuracy.
Check that the barrier is applied smoothly without wrinkles. Ensure the convexity is providing adequate contact and pressure. Make sure the pouch is securely attached to the barrier. A damaged or poorly fitting pouch can also cause leaks.
