MONGOLIA’S FIRST COSMETIC SILICONE PROSTHETICS LABORATORY OPENS

A laboratory for cosmetic prosthetics and artificial body parts has opened under the Beauty School CiTi University, marking the first of its kind in Mongolia.

The laboratory has been conducting research since 2017 and officially launched today. It is equipped with the latest 3D technology, which scans human tissues, prints the prosthetic base using a 3D printer, and finishes the product using German processing technology. The school has secured a 20-year patent for this production process.

Numerous individuals who face amputation of limbs like hands, fingers, or feet due to birth defects or accidents often lack knowledge about prosthetics. This laboratory not only offers solutions to replace lost body parts but also restores self-confidence through aesthetic improvements. 

The prosthetics are customized to the individual's skin tone by blending 7-8 different shades, replicating the colors of veins, fingertip redness, and the base tone of the palm. Moreover, the prosthetics come with silicone or acrylic nails, allowing women to maintain nail care and aesthetics. Additionally, metal is used in the finger joints, enabling natural movements such as gripping. Currently, the laboratory primarily produces prosthetics for fingers, hands, feet, ears, and noses using cutting-edge technology.
