they appear bespoke and fitted to the intended wearer. They'd have different size bodies etc
Good point. Easy to argue that the suit's flexible, but those little projectors have a fixed number and arrangement. They'd have been tailored for Griffin and his brother, definitely not for Cecilia, whose body shape should have resulted in visible distortion.
However to answer the OP's original question, I agree with the posters below that we're just supposed to assume that, because she was faking it, the wound wasn't as bad as it looked.
Also, I think both the wrist-slash and non-bespoke Invisi-Suit can be more reasonably forgiven if one treats this as Blumhouse-branded horror (like Peele's movies) rather than hard science fiction (like "The Invisible Man" SciFi Channel series or Verhoeven's "Hollow Man").
IOW, I can accept wonky science like "tethered doppelgängers" and brain-transplants if the movies only uses them as plot devices to scare us in interesting ways. I'm less forgiving if the movie relies on technology as its central theme.

Indeed. Something else that bugged me about the suit was the jump scare reveal when he got covered in white paint. A, there were no footprints in the paint at the base of the ladder and leading away from it and B, most egregiously, he was not immediately visible for the rest of that sequence. If you've ever tried to clean up a paint spill you how much of an absolute pain it is. It requires a lot of effort and after the first attempt, all you've probably done is spread it around a bit. Especially with that suit, all the lenses, nooks and crannies, whatever fabric it is, 100% impossible. OK I thought, lets assume he's made it hydrophobic, that would be smart. But no, they showed he cleaned it all off, every last drop in the kitchen sink, without a mirror or anything. A little bit farfetched.
Another plot hole is you have a room full of people thinking Cecilia murdered her sister in the restaurant but oh, don't worry the police think it was the brother that slit her throat and made it look like it was Cecilia. Now there is video footage of the exact same scenario playing out to someone else. Not suspicious at all...

Yeah. Both die the same way, the cops know invisibility is real. Coincidenza??? But her cocky attitude at the end kinda suggested: "Prove it. It's all on tape." Unasked, and unanswered: Was she going to keep the baby??
