Flair® Convex

Flair® Convex pouches provide the security of a traditional, hard convex flange with the comfort, flexibility and protection of a soft convex.

The revolutionary Convex pouch conforms to the body as it warms up with the body’s temperature, making it ideal for full or partially retracted/recessed stomas, or even stomas that have tilted causing a recess only on one side of the stoma.

  • Easy to use as the flexible nature of the plateau reinforcement allows the user to fold the flange during application to ensure accurate positioning of pouch
  • The surface of the plastic is smooth without any hard, rigid edges that may potentially harm the stoma compared to traditional convex products
  • The soft, flexible domed plateau ensures a secure fit right up to the edge of the stoma without extreme tissue distortion, unlike other convex pouches that offer a flat plateau whereby leakage can occur at the site of the stoma
  • Secure adhesion is achieved with the Hyperflex® hydrocolloid flange without causing skin discomfort on removal. It has moisture permeability, which allows the skin to breathe and reduces the likelihood of skin irritation
  • The advanced convexity range of Flair® Convex pouches have a larger flange for extra security and a domed plateau
  • Dual-Carb® filter that gently adsorbs odour

Flair® Convex can be used for:

  • Retracted stomas 
  • Slightly sunken, tilted or recessed stomas 
  • Post-operative scarring/keloid scars
  • Hypergranulation
  • Post-operative weight gain/loss
  • Flaccid abdomen-’jelly belly’
  • Poorly sited stomas i.e. in a skin fold (emergency surgery)
  • Loop stomas (proximal end can become flush to the skin)
  • Telescoping stoma
