The Skin Barrier, also known as flange, wafer, or stoma wafer, is an important part of a Two-Piece Ostomy Pouch system. The skin barrier adheres to the peristomal skin as an attachment point for the pouch while sealing the stoma to prevent leaks and odor. Since a skin barrier must remain securely affixed, they are usually combined with Adhesives, Pastes, Powders or Lotions to treat the skin to prevent infection and irritation.
NewLeaf Home Medical understands the role skin barriers play in boosting an ostomate’s confidence and comfort. Our selection caters to a variety of user needs and ostomy types and includes Convex Barriers, Flat Barriers and Skin Barrier & Ring Accessories.
