Capsule formation around breast implants (2021)
Journal Article
Bayston, R. (2022). Capsule formation around breast implants. Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, 31, 123-128. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpra.2021.11.004

All implants are rapidly coated by the host with glycoproteins forming a thin capsule, and this is a normal response. Where an inflammatory stimulus such as infection is present, the capsule can thicken and become microvascularised and sometimes calc... Read More about Capsule formation around breast implants.
