At TENA, we are always looking for new ways to improve. New ways to make caring easier and more effective. So, when developing our latest TENA ProSkin absorbent product, we didn’t only consider the needs of the wearer. We also designed it to facilitate work for the caregivers who are facing more challenges than ever.
TENA ProSkin Flex
Introducing improved TENA ProSkin Flex – for providing better comfort and care
This insight led to the new, improved TENA ProSkin Flex. The TENA ProSkin Flex not only provides comfort, protection and leakage security, it also features two unique new design innovations that make product changes faster, easier and more ergonomic than ever
Improved with two unique new design innovations
Smart FingerLift™
The first innovation is the smart, distinctive blue Smart FingerLift™ tab. The FingerLift™ tab combines with the white belt to clearly show where the belt opens. As well as making the belt easier to open, this also helps get the product ready for application more quickly.
Redesigned COMFIStretch™
The second innovation is the redesigned soft elastic COMFIStretch™ belt. The belt easily adjusts to fit different body shapes, providing a secure, comfortable fit and great leakage security. For ease of use, it can be fastened at the front or back, while the ergonomic, easy-to-use design means less back bending, which reduces physical strain on professional caregivers.

Keep skin dry
Choose products with a fast absorption that are gentle on the skin. This will keep skin dry and let it breathe. Always ensure that the product type, size and absorption level suit the residents’ needs. Make sure it is properly fitted for more comfort, dignity and leakage security and changed according to the individual care plan or whenever needed. Toilet as often as needed to prevent leakages. Any soiled products must be removed quickly and the skin thoroughly and gently cleansed.
*Required fields
Keep skin clean
Skin should be carefully inspected and cleaned after every product change, especially the folds. Ensure skin is dry after cleaning and use skin care products that suit individual needs. The surface-active agents in a wash cream are kinder to sensitive skin in the perineal area than those found in soap. TENA no-rinse products effectively clean, moisturise and protect even the most fragile skin, helping the skin’s natural barrier stay intact.
*Required fields
Keep skin protected
As part of a daily care routine, the whole body should be moisturised with a lotion to keep skin soft and prevent itching. When skin needs extra protection, use a barrier cream. This provides an extra layer that protects the skin from excess moisture and irritants like urine and faeces. A transparent barrier cream allows you to assess the skin’s condition after application. If there is no improvement after five days, adapt your care plan as necessary.
