I'm urostomy , so I change standing up in the bathroom .First I take my new bag & tuck it under my left arm to get it warm . By the time I'm at the point of applying the new bag , I peel off the protective leaf off the adhesive flange & its just warm & sticky enough to stick instantly & make a good seal .
Hi: I had a terrible time with micro-skin. I am a workout junkie and I was looking for something I could use to train. I tried it and the saran wrap just winkled and made me feel uncomfortable. I had my husband try to put it on me and he had the same result. He says if I want to try it he would do something different. But, I found the right solution for myself. I, also, wanted it to work because I am highly allergic to adhesive. I am glad to see it works for you. Maybe you can explain in detail how you put it on. I have watched the video many times. I would love to try it again.
Pray for Peace, Hana
