Not sure of the material, but I'm thinking a sheet of a form-able plastic or PVC will make up the new part, formed into the mold with a heating apparatus.
May want to apply something like vaseline as a release agent to the original rather than put it in a bag which would likely either add creases to the mold or not fully contour to the face.

I wonder if a vacuform plastic machine would work for making the replacements?
