Safe N Simple X-Tra Wide Skin Barrier Arc, 2", Alcohol-Free Adhesive, Box of 20
2" Skin Barrier Arcs for Secure Ostomy Wafer Edge Protection
Product Description
For individuals managing an ostomy, keeping the pouching system securely sealed at the edges is a constant concern. Wafers can begin to lift, crease, or loosen over time, especially during movement, showering, or swimming. When the edges of the barrier lift, moisture and output can seep underneath, leading to leakage, skin irritation, and the need for frequent, unexpected appliance changes
The Safe N Simple X-Tra Wide Skin Barrier Arcs are designed to address these needs. These 2" hydrocolloid-based crescent arcs can be used as a tape alternative to "picture frame" the wafer, reinforcing the edges to help prevent lifting and create a waterproof seal . The heat-activated adhesive provides strong tack, and the skin-friendly hydrocolloid material is gentle on sensitive peristomal skin . The arcs can be placed directly on irritated skin under the pouch to create a smooth platform, or over the pouch edges to secure and reinforce the seal
This Safe N’ Simple product is designed for convenience and flexibility. The waterproof material provides a reliable moisture barrier, allowing you to bathe, shower, or swim with confidence . The thin, low-profile design is comfortable for extended wear and features a matte beige finish that blends discreetly with most skin tones . Each tray contains 20 crescent arcs, providing a convenient supply for reinforcing your ostomy appliance
