FAQs
What makes the TRIPLE LAYER LOCK™ system effective?
The TRIPLE LAYER LOCK™ system utilizes multiple absorbent layers and a rapid-dry core to quickly draw liquid away from the skin and lock it securely within the product, preventing leaks and odor.
How absorbent are the Vivactive Slip Maxi compared to supermarket brands?
Vivactive Slip Maxi are designed to be significantly more absorbent than most products typically found in local supermarkets, catering to higher levels of incontinence.
Can I use these slips overnight?
Yes, due to their high absorbency capacity, Vivactive Slip Maxi are well-suited for overnight use to provide continuous protection.
What size should I choose?
It is recommended to measure the waist and hip circumference and choose the size that best fits these measurements according to the product's sizing guide for optimal comfort and security.
Are these slips suitable for sensitive skin?
While designed for comfort, individual skin sensitivity can vary. Ensure the skin is clean and dry before application, and discontinue use if irritation occurs.
Where can I find information on higher absorbency options?
Vivactive also offers an 'Ultimate' range for even higher levels of protection if the Maxi range does not meet your specific needs.
Troubleshooting
Leakage occurs despite wearing the product
Ensure the slip is the correct size and is fitted snugly. Check that the adhesive tabs are securely fastened and that the leg cuffs are properly extended to form a barrier.
Skin irritation or discomfort
Verify that the slip is not too tight. Ensure the skin is clean and dry before application. Consider trying a different size or type of absorbent product if irritation persists.
Product feels bulky or causes noise
This is sometimes a characteristic of highly absorbent products. Ensure the fit is snug to minimize movement. For lighter needs, consider a less absorbent product range.
