Title:
L/L Prosthetic Skin Durability & Shade Consistency
Text:
Dear O&P List Members:
We find ourselves continually being dissatisfied with the durability, skin
shade consistency and overall product quality control of prosthetic skins for
lower limb prostheses and would appreciate feedback on the experience of
others.
Our experience to date has mostly been with PRS, Kingsley, Otto Bock and
Skinergy L/L Prosthetic Skins, although we have looked at others.
We have also used the Alatheia and Skinergy Silicone Skins, which we have
found to not have the long-term durability; however, they do provide improved
aesthetics.
I would appreciate hearing the experiences and thoughts of others and
re-post any feedback received.
If you do not want the source of feedback revealed, please indicate this in
your reply, otherwise I will post the source of the replies.
Sincerest regards,
John N. Billock, CPO/L, FAAOP
