John,

Many elderly people have pretty thin/fragile skin.
Please research carefully before settling on any technique.
Perhaps talk to a doctor or dermatologist.
I do recall a clayart thread about using a dental seaweed based mold
material for babies hands or feet molds.
Here's a web site with some info.
