Moist skin can cause the adhesive to detach from the skin

Adhesives are generally designed to manage moistness. However, extensive moistness from the stoma itself or perspiring may result in adhesive breakdown, ultimately resulting in leakage and skin irritation. 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.

 

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

  • If you are having issues with extensive moisture, you may need to adapt how often you change your baseplate. Learn what to look out for when changing your adhesive.
  • If the moisture is due to excessive sweating, you may wish to speak to your healthcare professional for further guidance as this could be a sign of an underlying condition.
