Every year, many people suffer from disfigurements to their faces. Many of these injuries occur through burns, traffic accidents or other kinds of trauma. Significant numbers of children are also born with congenital disfigurements, such as a missing outer ear.
In some cases it is possible to reconstruct the face with surgical techniques. However, when this is not possible, a prosthesis can provide an alternative solution.
The Vistafix™ system offers a particularly attractive solution as the prosthesis is securely attached allowing an active social life. In addition, with today’s silicone materials it is possible to make a facial prosthesis so lifelike that it is difficult to tell it apart from the rest of the face – even when close!
