I’m so sorry you’re having to go through that. Maybe try a Brava ring around the stoma first then the appliance. You could also try a very sticky adhesive called Skin Tac by Torbot. I use Skin Tac and Brava ring, and I’ve had great success. If you try the Skin Tac, try it on a small area of nearby skin first to make sure you don’t have an allergy to it.

Where do you buy Skin Tac?

I use my hair dryer (low setting) for a few seconds to make it more tacky and flexible. Keep it far enough away and briefly,don't melt it. Was told to rub it between my hands but never worked 💪
