Fig. 1.
Elastic model of the face with 2 layers. The surface layer is made of polyurethane with a thickness of 1 mm and the inner layer is silicone. The left model was made from computed tomographic stereolithographic data and the right from stereolithographic data from a 3-dimensional camera.

Fig. 2.
Two-layer elastic models of the cleft lip nose. With all models simulation surgery with Tajima’s reverse U method was performed. The left model is of a 5-year-old boy with right cleft lip and palate. The center model is of a 5-year-old boy with right cleft lip. The right model is of a 4-year-old girl with left cleft lip. This model is different from the other 2 models. The surface layer is made of polyurethane and the inner layer is also polyurethane. The elasticity index of polyurethane is different.
