Having a prosthesis made can bring up a full range of emotions throughout the process. We welcome and encourage our clients to bring close family or friends to their appointments. We are so thankful for this client and her very enthusiastic family member who came to each appointment providing positive emotional support as well as…
These are the prostheses of one our first and favorite clients! She takes impeccable care of her pieces. You can see over time that the silicone in the older pieces is breaking down and also observe sculptural changes as our techniques have improved over time. The average lifespan of our upper extremity pieces is 2-5…
This client traveled to us from out of state. She had three highly realistic prosthetic fingers created as well as a utility hand. Having prostheses made isn’t just about restoring the look of the fingers she lost. These prostheses are about playing with the kids in her family and not feeling like she has to…

This client grew up receiving compliments on her elegant, long fingers. After losing her ring finger in her mid-20’s, this client lost the sense of pride she had in her hands and felt she had to hide them. She not only lost her finger, but felt she lost a piece of her identity. Upon wearing…
We take pride in creating a complete portrait of our client’s fingers, down to the tonal variations in the nail bed. Realism alone isn’t enough, durability is key and we are always striving to improve. Just over a year ago, we developed a new, solid block acrylic nail which maintains color better and is less…
