Prowess 4570 Stoma-Fit Skin Barrier Wafers Flexible – 70mm
The Prowess 4570 Stoma-Fit Skin Barrier Wafers Flexible in 70mm represent the largest size in the Flexible range — designed for ostomates who require maximum stoma coverage combined with the comfort of a soft, body-contouring hydrocolloid wafer. The generous 70mm pre-cut opening ensures a precise, snug fit around larger stomas, while the flexible material adapts effortlessly to abdominal contours, giving you a secure, leak-resistant seal and the freedom to move with confidence.
Key Benefits
-
Enhanced Flexibility for Active Living: Specially formulated flexible hydrocolloid material moves naturally with your body, making it ideal for physically active ostomates or those with irregular abdominal contours.
-
70mm Pre-Cut Stoma Opening: Precisely cut to 70mm for maximum coverage around larger stomas, minimising peristomal skin exposure and reducing the risk of output contact.
-
Superior Skin Comfort: Ultra-soft, pliable wafer material is gentle on sensitive peristomal skin, reducing pressure points and discomfort during extended wear.
-
Reliable Hydrocolloid Adhesion: Moisture-absorbing hydrocolloid adhesive maintains a secure, leak-resistant seal while protecting the skin from output contact and irritation.
-
Contours to Body Shape: Adapts seamlessly to abdominal curves, folds, and movement — providing a consistent seal even in the most challenging body contour areas.
-
Compatible with Standard Pouching Systems: Works with one-piece and two-piece ostomy pouching systems from leading brands.
How to Use
- Clean and thoroughly dry the peristomal skin before application.
- Remove the protective backing from the skin barrier wafer.
- Centre the 70mm opening carefully over the stoma.
- Press firmly from the stoma outward to ensure full, even adhesion and eliminate air pockets.
- Smooth the flexible edges gently to conform to body contours and secure the seal.
- Attach your ostomy pouch as per your pouching system instructions.
- Change the wafer every 3–5 days or as advised by your stoma care nurse.

Prowess Stoma-Fit Range – Flexible vs. Durable
-
Flexible (4570): Softer, more pliable material — ideal for active lifestyles, irregular contours, and maximum comfort.
-
Durable (6370): Firmer adhesive formula — ideal for extended wear and high-output stomas requiring a robust seal.
Precautions
- For external use only — do not insert into the stoma.
- If skin irritation, redness, or rash develops, discontinue use and consult your stoma care nurse or healthcare professional.
- Ensure the peristomal skin is completely dry before application for optimal adhesion.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.
- Measure your stoma regularly — stoma size can change over time, especially in the weeks following surgery.
