Abstract: A system is provided for application of a layer permanently adhering to the inside of a breast prosthesis formed as a shell-shaped body made from a soft-elastic material, in which a two-component silicone rubber forming the adhesive layer is injected into a mold prior to curing of the body and then cured together with the body. Alternatively, the two-component silicone rubber forming the adhesive layer is first cured in a shell, with the shell then being applied to the body in a mold and then cured again with the body. In a third alternative, the adhesive layer is cured while being joined to a carrier film, with the carrier film then being adhered to the prosthesis sheath which is then filled with addition-vulcanizing two-component silicone rubber and cured in a mold.

Abstract: For the manufacture of breast prostheses consisting of a shell-shaped body made from an addition-vulcanising two-components silicone rubber mass, which body is contained in plastic films enveloping it, a filler of low density consisting of hollow spheres or microspheres is added to the two-component silicone rubber mass, said mixture is poured into a sheath of plastic films and cured in a mould under the effect of heat. To achieve the best possible processing capability of the mixture of the two-component silicone rubber mass with the hollow spheres or microspheres, the hollow spheres or microspheres are plastically deformed before they are mixed with the two components of the silicone rubber mass.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a breast prosthesis comprising two shell-like bodies (2, 3) each welded in between synthetic resin films and consisting of silicone compositions of different softness, wherein the outer body (2) designed according to the form of a breast has a hardness which is adapted to the soft-elastic resiliency of the natural breast tissue, and the inner body (3) has a softer gel-like consistency, wherein the prosthesis is provided with an adhesive layer (4) manufactured to be permanently tacky in its marginal zone on its rear side, a first section (4a) of the adhesive layer (4) being arranged on the outer prosthesis body (2) and a second section (4b) of the adhesive layer (4) being arranged on the inner body (3).
