A student born without a left arm has a "new lease of life" thanks to her prosthetic limb - with painted-on veins, freckles and acrylic nails.
Zahra Tabibniya, 23, says she felt she needed to hide her disability during her school years.
She tried different prosthetics - including a heavy 2kg limb made of silicone - but says her latest silicone arm is her favourite and allows her to tie her laces and do her hair.
The £700 silicone prosthetic looks natural with painted-on veins, freckles, moles and acrylic nails attached.
Zahra even got her prosthetic skin colour topped up to match her summer tan.
