The most realistic and practical silicone face to transform your Sim-Man for more engaging simulation training
Antoin represents a European male in their mid 50s.
MEDICFX facial overlays are created with very soft and durable silicone. They are designed to fit most manikins, and this particular face will fit best on the Laerdal SimMan
Each face has been hand painted by our FX artists to create an original and realistic design.
A wig is attached to the facial overlay, making it easy to wrap over the manikin.
Eyebrows and sideburns are punched into the silicone for added realism.
The back of our model has a convenient strap fastened with velcro, so putting the face on the manikin is very easy. [no stretching or pulling over the manikin's head is required.]
It is also less claustrophobic for Standard Patients to wear.
MEDICFX facial overlays add realism to simulation training. Making scenarios more believable and engaging. These overlays assist with participant immersion, helping to transform your simulator into any age, gender, or race.
Our facial overlays can be worn by Standard Patients as well, depending a little on the face shape of the wearer. Scenarios can be extended by moving the overlay from a standard patient to a manikin, maintaining continuity and immersion for your participants in the chosen scenario.
We cater for custom designs, and each face can be created in various skin tones, different wigs, and different paint work. We can add operable features to certain face designs, such as bleeding points.
Care instructions:
Please treat the facial overlays with respect.
Do not overstretch eye or mouth openings.
Do NOT pull on any hair.
Store the face out of direct sunlight and in a cool environment.
You can brush the hair; however, avoid rough brushing around the hair roots or edge of the wig to avoid damage, as these areas have been hairpunched into the silicone and can be fragile.
As Silicone is an oil based product, it may become a little shiny over time. Wipe off any oily residue with Isopropyl Alcohol. Dry with a hairdryer. You can use translucent powder [cosmetic loose powder or talcum powder] and brush it over shiny areas.
Keep the powder away from the lips and eyes to keep them glossy and lifelike.
If, in the most unlikely case, you need to repair the face, this can be done with a Silicone Repair kit. silicone repair kit from MedicFX
An instructional video on basic repairs can be found on our YouTube channel here.
The face can be washed with warm, soapy water and disinfected with ISO alcohol.
If necessary, the hair can be washed with warm water and a little shampoo or conditioner, then dried with a hairdryer on a low setting.
