Is it normal for Coloplast wafer edges to lift slightly?

Topic Explanation
The discussion is about the Coloplast Mio Click 2-piece wafer system and whether it is normal for the edges of the wafer to be slightly lifted after application. The original poster, Mindy, has recently started using this system and is seeking advice on whether this is a common issue with Coloplast products.

Advice and Insights
- Normalcy of Lifted Edges:
- Several users have experienced slightly lifted edges with Coloplast wafers, indicating that it might be a common occurrence with this product.
- One user mentioned that they did not experience lifting with the Coloplast Sensura Mio Click when they smoothed the wafer out to the edges during application.

- Comparisons with Other Brands:
- Some users prefer wafers with cloth edges, like those from Hollister, as they find them more comfortable and less prone to lifting.

- Application Tips:
- Warming up the base plate before application can help ensure better adhesion and reduce the likelihood of the edges lifting.
- Smoothing the wafer out to the edges during application can prevent lifting.

- Additional Measures:
- Using a belt and applying tape over the edges can provide extra security if the edges appear unstable.
- Contacting Coloplast directly for advice or to report potential defects might provide more specific guidance and solutions.
