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.
