Description
What this equipment is and what it's designed for.
Lightweight full silicone sleeve that reproduces bruising on the skin. It is made of soft, skin-like silicone with embedded reinforcing mesh, hand-painted, and can be used on different areas of the body to suit many scenarios.
As it is a full silicone sleeve, it has no fastening: it is gathered up, slid over the limb and positioned; a little talc prevents it from sticking. Edges can be hidden with clothing or bandages or blended with FX Silicone or FX GEL, and to remove it, simply roll it off.
