Compared to normal intimate hygiene practices, stoma cleaning must respect the physiological conditions of two very different areas:
- the stoma, which is not a simple mucous membrane, but part of the intestine. It has an acidic pH (3.5), has the ability to absorb some of the substances it comes into contact with, but is not protected by keratinocytes, so it is easily irritated and must not come into contact with cytotoxic or histodamaging solutions.
- the skin, which, despite being protected by a stratum corneum, is easily attacked by digestive juices or urine. It has a pH of around 5.0 and needs constant hydration to restore the physiological lipo-lipid film that is continuously removed by the adhesive devices used for collecting exudates.
A product intended for stoma hygiene must have a self-balancing pH, meaning it helps restore the correct acidity of the different areas (stoma-skin).
It must be free of substances that can cause skin alterations or allergies (soaps, petrolatum, parabens, silicones, allergenic perfumes, alcohol).
It must be enriched with moisturizing and emollient active ingredients.
Daily use of Stoma Plus prevents the onset of irritations, mycoses, and skin alterations.

How to use
Maximum attention must be paid to the cleansing procedure.
Bioderm Stoma Plus dermocleanser is not used neat but diluted in lukewarm water at the time of use.
To proceed with cleaning and drying, it is always better to avoid the use of sponges, which are rough and can trap unwanted germs, and paper, which can cause friction irritation and leave residues that can stick to the skin.
The use of professional Bioderm biodegradable, single-use, soft, delicate, and residue-free wipes is recommended.
