Applying Medical Adhesive For Ostomy Care
Skinister Medical Adhesive For Ostomy Care
Why use Skinister Medical Adhesive for Ostomy Care
Most ostomy wafers will come with a layer of adhesive already applied. However, the thin adhesive layer might not create a strong enough bond to the skin for extended wear. This can sometimes cause discomfort or leakage. Skinister Medical Adhesive can be applied in addition to this adhesive to help provide a secure seal and maintain your skin health.

Tips on using Skinister Medical Adhesive

Adhesive Frequently Asked Questions
Is it necessary to use the Skinister Medical Adhesive on the entire skin barrier?
- You can spray it on the entire adhesive surface of the pouching system. However, if there are particular areas that are not adhering well, you can use it only in those areas.
What is the best way to spray the adhesive?
- Hold the spray bottle about 1 foot away from your ostomy system. Squirt the adhesive until the surface is coated evenly with the desired amount of adhesive.
Can a second adhesive coat be applied?
- To strengthen the adhesive bond, a second coat can be applied if necessary. Wait 5 minutes between each coat, as well as remember to wait 5 minutes before applying your pouching system.
Can the adhesive be applied directly to the skin?
- We strongly discourage spraying this product directly to the skin. For best results, apply the adhesive only to your ostomy system.
Is it difficult to remove the adhesive from the skin?
- Skinister Medical Adhesive should come off easily when removing the pouching system. If removing is too difficult, Skinister Medical Adhesive Remover spray can help with removal.
