1. A device to treat a region of a patient having a skin fold, comprising: a base layer comprising a first surface, a second surface, an interior region and an outer perimeter, and a non-planar sealing region located about the outer perimeter of the base layer;tubing directly attached to the second surface of the base layer; andan adhesive located on the base layer and on at least a portion of the sealing region. 2. The device of claim 1, wherein the non-planar sealing region comprises a tapered region and a taper peak, wherein the tapered region has a taper length and a taper slope. 3. The device of claim 2, wherein the non-planar sealing region comprises a plurality of tapered regions and taper peaks. 4. The device of claim 2, wherein the tapered region comprises one or more elastic regions configured to change the taper slope when stretched. 5. The device of claim 2, wherein the non-planar sealing region further comprises a cavity. 6. The device of claim 5, wherein the non-planar sealing region further comprises a pushing element located in the cavity, wherein the pushing element is configured to push outwardly against the cavity. 7. The device of claim 6, wherein the pushing element comprises a filament that is coupled to the taper peak and extends along the taper length. 8. The device of claim 6, wherein the pushing element comprises a sack containing an expandable element. 9. The device of claim 8, wherein the expandable element is a foam. 10. The device of claim 8, wherein the expandable element is a fluid. 11. The device of claim 1, wherein the non-planar sealing region is integrally formed with the base layer. 12. The device of claim 1, wherein the non-planar sealing region is attached to the base layer at the point of manufacture. 13. The device of claim 1, further comprising tubing located within the base layer. 14. The device of claim 1, further comprising tubing directly attached to the first surface of the base layer. 15. The device of claim 1, wherein the tubing is directly attached to both the first surface and the second surface of the base layer. 16. A device to treat a region of a patient having a skin fold, comprising: a base layer comprising a first surface, a second surface, an interior region and an outer perimeter, and a non-planar sealing region located about the outer perimeter of the base layer; andan adhesive located on the base layer and on at least a portion of the sealing region;wherein the non-planar sealing region comprises: a tapered region, wherein the tapered region has a taper length and a taper slope;a taper peak;a cavity; anda pushing element located in the cavity and comprising a sack containing an expandable element, wherein the pushing element is configured to push outwardly against the cavity and wherein the expandable element is a fluid. 17. The device of claim 16, wherein the non-planar sealing region comprises a plurality of tapered regions and taper peaks. 18. The device of claim 16, wherein the tapered region comprises one or more elastic regions configured to change the taper slope when stretched. 19. The device of claim 16, wherein the pushing element comprises a filament that is coupled to the taper peak and extends along the taper length. 20. The device of claim 16, wherein the non-planar sealing region is integrally formed with the base layer. 21. The device of claim 16, wherein the non-planar sealing region is attached to the base layer at the point of manufacture. 22. The device of claim 16, further comprising tubing located within the base layer. 23. The device of claim 16, further comprising tubing directly attached to the first surface of the base layer. 24. The device of claim 16, further comprising tubing directly attached to the second surface of the base layer. 25. The device of claim 16, further comprising tubing directly attached to both the first surface and the second surface of the base layer.
