Steps in Creating a Custom Prosthesis

STEP 1:  The creation of a custom prosthesis begins with an impression to duplicate the affected area.

STEP 2:  A clay sculpture recreates the appearance of the natural anatomy.

STEP 3:  The sculpture is then molded and an elastic material is cast to replicate the image

STEP 4:  The prosthesis is hand painted and tinted to visually blend with the surrounding anatomy.


INFORMATION GUIDELINES

  • On average, the process requires two office visits.

  • The procedure is painless and is conducted in a relaxed office environment.

  • Prostheses are made of a soft, durable silicone designed for prolonged use under normal conditions.

  • The cost of a prosthesis varies according to the complexity of the product.  While the patient is responsible for payment, medical insurance often helps cover costs.

  • Most referrals are from the medical community, news media, and television appearances.  Patients can also contact us directly to schedule an appointment.
