Facial epenthesis for the nose, eyes, and ears are made of medical-grade silicone rubber. These devices typically need to go through several fittings in order to be made to fit each person’s unique face features.
Depending on the patient’s skin tone, the epenthesis will be made on an individual basis using either firm or soft medical-grade silicones. The fixing of the epenthesis will mostly depend on the anatomical spot that needs to be rebuilt and can be done with titanium implants or biological glue.
The Global Epenthesis Silicone rubber market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The epenthesis presented in the invention consists of a sheath that mimics the desired body surface on the front while being tailored to a particular body part on the rear, together with an elastic filler that is housed inside the sheath.
The typical epitheca’s are made up of an outer sheath that is liquid-filled and tailored to the surface of the body. In most cases, the sheath material is made of silicone rubber or a polyurethane plastic, both of which have proven to be highly skin-friendly.
In many cases, liquid silicone makes up the filler. Because the sheath is constructed of an elastic material as well, the liquid filling is guaranteed to have some deformability.
Congenital or acquired physical deficiencies can be compensated for using hypotheses, which have been well-known and frequently discussed for some time. They are frequently employed to replicate a natural body surface and cover up the aftermath of accidents or surgical procedures.
Simulating a female breast after it has been surgically removed due to malignant tumors is a common goal.
The purpose of the invention is to solve the problem of creating a material for filling epenthesis that is free of the disadvantages mentioned above, completely safe for use in humans, compatible with skin in the event that it penetrates the sheath or the sheath is damaged, and capable of giving the epenthesis the elasticity of the natural skin surface.
The epenthesis must also maintain long-term dimensional stability.
