When removing the bag, press the skin under the baseplate and gently remove the bag by peeling the edges of the baseplate. You can also apply light pressure on your skin with your free hand to help removal.

If there is still some skin damage when reducing the bag, an adhesive remover can help.

• LiftPlus^® 360 and LiftPlus^® 360 Citrus can help to reduce the pain associated with the removal of stoma bag adhesives.
• LiftPlus^® and LiftPlus^® Citrus Wipes can be used to help remove any sticky residue left on the skin around a stoma.

Please note, the LiftPlus^®and LiftPlus^®360 range should not be used on broken skin.

If you have any concerns regarding the severity of your skin soreness when removing your bag, please consult your Stoma Care Nurse.
