The hole in my baseplate doesn't fit the exact shape of my stoma

If the hole is too big, the skin around the stoma is exposed to output, which can damage the skin. If the hole is too small, it can rub against the stoma or irritate the skin around it. See below for recommendations.

Brava® Protective Seal Brava® Protective Seal

Brava® Protective Seal creates a seal between stoma and baseplate, this reduces the risk of leakage and protects the skin. The seal is also easy to shape, apply and remove.

The Brava® Protective Seal has a new polymer formulation that is designed to protect against leakage and protect the skin, thereby providing a dual protection. It is easy to shape so it fits snugly around the stoma and can be applied over skin with dips, creases and folds. When it is time to take it off, it can be removed easily and cleanly, leaving minimal residue behind. Wide sizes now available for a greater surface area and better fit over skin with more challenges, such as deeper creases and folds.

The alcohol-free formulation is skin-friendly, has a skin friendly pH-level and does not sting. The durable paste is resistant to breaking down or dissolving, thus protects the skin against output to avoid irritation of the skin. 

IMPORTANT! If you have any concerns – such as skin problems or how to use new products – you should always consult your Stomal Therapy Nurse.
