Prosthetic Finger

On the same day we can take a simple silicone impression of the amputated and unaffected fingers. From the silicone impression we are able to make a precise model of the residual finger.

In the next session we address both the skin texture details and the fit of the wax prototype of the finger in place. We verify you are happy with the length, shape, and alignment of the prototype

The fitting session also includes our skin color matching procedure with our custom swatches that accurately captures in photos the array of pigmentation. From experience and visual acuity the medical the artist can translate color references and make minute adjustments during fabrication using these nuanced silicone swatches.

The finished high resolution silicone prosthetic fingers are demolded and prepared for final delivery. Any color details needed are painstakingly added by the anaplastologist.

We check each final prosthesis for fit and make any final adjustments. We want each client to be happy so we will make corrections or adjustments if needed. We provide full aftercare instructions (link to adhesives/instruction). Each prosthesis should last years, and master molds are safely archived for replacements whenever needed.
