Prepare and customize the skin
barrier:
Place your thumbs or fingers at the
center of the starter hole and begin
to roll back the adhesive to form an
opening that fits the size and shape
of the stoma. The adhesive should
roll back easily. It is important to not
stretch the adhesive.
As you shape and roll back the ad-
hesive, periodically place the Conva-
Tec Moldable Technology
barrier over the stoma, so it can be
viewed through the clear release
liner window. Once the skin barrier is
accurately molded to the shape and
size of the stoma, proceed to the
next step.
Note: The use of scissors with a
moldable product is not recom-
mended.
