An external breast prosthesis comprised of a thin, resilient shell with a front membrane formed and toned as a human breast and incorporating an areola and nipple of appropriate dimensions and tone and a back membrane compliable with the chest wall and the shell sealably containing a liquid or gel having a consistency and mass approximating that of human breast tissue. The prosthesis includes a discretely located, non protruding, self-sealing plug seal for addition and removal of the liquid or gel. In a preferred embodiment the areola with nipple is bonded to the surface of the front membrane and the remaining portion of the front membrane is closely covered with a protective layer of lightweight, skin toned fabric. The back membrane includes an embedded layer of similar fabric for added strength. The preferred embodiment may be fabricated on a mandrel using, readily available materials.
