Benefits of Fitting Image prostheses to clients:
The procedure is very simple too. First a mould is taken of the client’s torso in the privacy of their own home or at one of the two GTA clinics. The client chooses from 24 skin and nipple tones and then can further customize the prosthetic with moles or other features. The product is manufactured by an affiliate company and then the form is presented to the client for fitting and instructions on care and maintenance.
