Management of frequent leak of ostomy appliance due to uneven skin!!!!!

There is unven skin. The upper part in figure is high but the lower part is depressed that's why the appliances used to leak frequently. 
The adapt barrier ring was applied on the depressed part of peristomal skin and again adapt barrier ring applied round the cut end of flange so that skin becomes even and adhere on to the skin properly. This way of management might be helpful in the same cases of many patients having stoma.
