Description

What this equipment is and what it's designed for.

Soft 15 × 15 cm silicone pad made in three layers of different colours that imitate the skin. The top layer has integrated mesh so that it does not tear when sutured.

It accepts multiple sutures, which can be removed to start a new session, and blood can be added for extra realism. A round-bodied needle should be used, as cutting needles can damage it.
