Cyclic tests have shown a typical Mullins effect widely known for elastomers and other soft tissues. No statistical difference was found in the maximum stretch of the sample after the fifth loading cycle for male (1.26�0.035) and female (1.18�0.083). However, larger dispersion was obtained for the maximum stress for both genders, for male and for female. Results show the presence of inelastic strain and stress softening in the skin at large deformations. They also have shown how stress softening and residual strain change with the magnitude of the applied load. Good correlation was observed between the residual strain and the maximum strain previously attained by the sample during loading for all samples. However, the correlation was different between genders.
