The FaceFormer is an approved medical device and the training device specially developed for FaceFormer therapy.
The shape and material of the FaceFormer are precisely tailored to the forces acting on it. They are the result of scientifically controlled adjustments on a large number of patients.
Outstanding features
The FaceFormer is made from a modern silicone elastomer in a complex manufacturing process. Due to its special properties, the material is particularly suitable for medical applications. The chemically inactive material is highly biocompatible and has excellent tolerability. This is why it is widely used in medicine, even for long-term applications inside the human body.
Excellent material quality
Due to its special quality, the high-quality silicone elastomer of the FaceFormer meets the high requirements placed on medical applications.
The material is highly flexible, elastic and durable. It fits comfortably and ensures a high level of comfort when using the FaceFormer. At the same time, the material is extremely tear-resistant and can withstand the high mechanical forces that act on the FaceFormer during training.
Silicone in medicine
In medical technology, silicone elastomers are the material of choice for countless applications in medicine and biotechnology. Their advantages: Silicone products are elastic and flexible, biochemically inert and highly biocompatible. Silicone products are kind to skin and tissue. According to current knowledge, they are not allergenic and do not trigger any overreactions of the immune system.
The material is naturally resistant to germs. Due to their high heat resistance, silicone products can also be easily sterilized and autoclaved. Silicone elastomers are also hardly permeable to gases. Well-known applications in medicine include drainage tubes and catheters, bellows and seals in equipment.
High quality – free from harmful substances
The FaceFormer is free of latex, bisphenol-A (BPA) and plasticizers (phthalates, DEHP). Volatile substances are carefully expelled during the manufacturing process in a tempering process lasting several hours.
Made in Germany
To ensure consistently high product quality, the FaceFormer is produced exclusively in Germany.
Requirements and standards
The silicone elastomer used in production is officially tested and approved. It meets all requirements and standards:
