Cosmetic/Passive Arm Prosthetics

Cosmetic and passive arm prosthetics are built to closely match the look, color, and texture of your natural limb — designed for patients who want the most natural appearance possible, whether as a primary device or as an alternative for specific situations. While these devices don't provide powered grip like a myoelectric hand, many passive designs allow manual positioning for light functional tasks, such as stabilizing an object or resting naturally at your side. Each cosmetic prosthesis is custom-sculpted and color-matched by hand, since a natural, convincing appearance depends on getting these details right for your specific skin tone and limb shape.
