With a slightly recessed stoma or one surrounded by folds, a flat wafer eventually peels off in places and allows liquids to pass through. The New Image convex wafer, on the other hand, has a slight curve that gently presses around the stoma and maintains more uniform contact with the skin.

• The opening can be cut to the exact contour of the stoma, useful when the shape is not perfectly round
• The flange receives a New Image pouch, so the pouch can be changed without removing the wafer from the skin
