siliconed

Treated with rubbery coating

Siliconed describes something treated or enhanced with silicone, a synthetic polymer used for waterproofing, lubrication, or flexibility: siliconed gaskets, siliconed fabric.

In informal usage, it often refers to cosmetic silicone implants, particularly breast augmentation: Her siliconed lips looked unnatural.

The word can carry a dismissive tone when describing artificial-looking enhancements.
