Abstract
A nipple simulating the shape, surface geometry and function of a woman's breast is provided. The nipple has a stem and a base. The base has an areola region and a bulbous region. The areola region is positioned between the stem and the bulbous. region, and can simulate the areola of a woman's breast. The bulbous region can simulate the region of a woman's breast surrounding the areola. The areola region has a texture or surface geometry that is different from the texture or surface geometry of the stem or bulbous region.
Claims20
A nipple, comprising:
- a stem having a stem surface area and a first surface geometry, said stem having a proximal end and a distal end defining a stem length, said stem having a widest point diameter along said stem length of about 0.25 inches to about 0.75 inches;
- an areola region having an areola region surface area with a second surface geometry, said areola region having an areola edge with a diameter of about 1.20 inches to about 1.80 inches;
- and
- a bulbous region having a bulbous region surface area and a third surface geometry, said bulbous region having a bulbous edge with a diameter of about 1.50 inches to about 2.0 inches;
- wherein said bulbous region surface area is greater than said areola surface area.
A nipple, comprising:
- a stem having a stem surface area and a first surface geometry, said stem having a proximal end and a distal end defining a stem length, said stem having a stem wall thickness;
- an areola region having an areola region surface area with a second surface geometry, said areola region having an areola wall thickness;
- a bulbous region having a bulbous region surface area and a third surface geometry, said bulbous region having a bulbous region wall thickness;
- and
- a transition region between said areola region and said bulbous region, said transition region having a transition region wall thickness;
- wherein said stem wall thickness has the same or similar wall thickness as said areola region wall thickness or said transition region wall thickness, or both.
