Unlike the basic inflatable dolls of the past, today's full size sex dolls are carefully designed to replicate the appearance and feel of a real person. Most premium models are made from high-quality TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) or silicone, materials known for their soft texture and realistic touch. These materials allow manufacturers to create detailed skin textures, natural body contours, and flexible movement, making the dolls feel remarkably authentic.
