Care & Safety
Use
- CARE INSTRUCTIONS:It is recommended to rinse with running water and clean after use. If you use it regularly, wash the prosthesis at least once a day with fragrance-free soap (ideally ph neutral). Leave to air dry. You don't need to powder your prosthetic, but if you want, you can apply a light dusting of cornstarch. If a small hole forms or a tear occurs, DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY! Never continue to use a product that has a hole or tear. Continued use may cause further damage.
- STORAGE: Keep the prosthesis out of direct sunlight and store it in a cool, dark place, avoiding direct contact with other silicone-based products.
- SWIMMING: It is possible to swim with a silicone prosthetic, but it's important to note that prolonged exposure to chlorinated or salty water is not recommended, as it may lead to premature wear. After swimming, be sure to thoroughly rinse the prosthetic with clean water to remove any residue from chlorine, salt, or sand, and let it air dry completely. Keep in mind that frequent exposure to these elements can shorten the lifespan of your prosthetic. If you swim regularly, it might be a good idea to use a prosthetic or packer specifically designated for water activities.
- Flying with silicone prostheses: Silicone prosthetics, particularly those crafted from high-quality 100% silicone, are generally not problematic when passing through X-ray machines. As a non-metallic material, silicone typically appears as a dense but non-metallic object on scans. However, unlike natural body tissues, silicone prosthetics are homogeneous and lack internal structures. While the prosthetic may appear highly realistic on the surface, advanced body scanners can often detect subtle variations in texture and composition.
