Day two, intermediate level

Intermediate
Trauma Makeup

Advanced moulage for high-fidelity trauma simulation, covering blast injuries, gunshot wound trauma, burns in depth, lacerations and foreign objects, ulcers and bites for major incident training. This is day two of the two-day Application Skills course, and it is also available on its own.

What day two covers

Building on day one, this day develops your moulage artistry for high-fidelity trauma simulation. You will learn to create complex wound patterns including blast injuries, gunshot wound trauma, burns across varying severity and surface area, lacerations with embedded foreign objects, and ulcers and bites. Designed for anyone who already has foundational moulage skills and wants to work at a higher level of technical realism.

Learning Outcomes

  • Apply blast injury profiles using silicone and specialist products
  • Create gunshot wound trauma including entry and exit wounds with realistic tissue response
  • Construct burn patterns across varying severity levels and surface areas
  • Produce lacerations incorporating foreign object elements
  • Replicate ulcer and bite wound presentations for assessment training
  • Adapt moulage to multi-casualty triage scenarios at scale
  • Standardise wound presentations so they repeat reliably in every session

Who Is This For?

Open to anyone who wants to develop more advanced moulage skills. Some prior moulage experience is advisable, and day one is the ideal foundation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to have completed day one?

Day one is not a requirement. Some prior moulage experience is advisable before attending, and day one is the ideal foundation.

What should I bring?

Wear comfortable clothing you don’t mind getting product on. All materials and equipment are provided.

Where is the course held?

Scheduled courses run at our local training centre in Nantwich, Cheshire, just off junction 16 of the M6, and we can run the same day at your own site anywhere in the UK. Joining instructions with start and finish times go out once your place is confirmed.

SIMFX Support Cards

Cards to support you

Each card carries the triage identification, the moulage instructions and the actor behaviour cues for one injury. Assign one to each casualty actor during simulation support.

After completing day two, these cards become a working tool for the complex wound profiles you can now produce. Take them into your exercises to brief actors accurately, repeat wounds reliably across sessions, and put your new techniques directly into operational practice.
