Moth‐Wing‐Inspired Multifunctional Metamaterials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study develops a moth‐wing‐inspired heterogeneous metamaterial that achieves synergistic broadband sound absorption, mechanical energy dissipation, and thermal insulation within a lightweight architected framework. Combining bioinspired gradient design, genetic‐algorithm optimization, and additive manufacturing, the bionic heterogeneous acoustic ...

Late Capsular Hematoma after Prosthesis Removal Following Aesthetic Breast Augmentation: A Case Report [PDF]

Archives of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 2017
Late capsular hematoma formation after augmentation mammoplasty with an implant is a very rare complication. Some mechanisms explaining late capsular hematoma formation have been reported; it is thought to be associated with capsular contracture ...

Subpectoral and Precapsular Implant Repositioning Technique: Correction of Capsular Contracture and Implant Malposition [PDF]

Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 2011
Although capsule formation is a natural-healing process following breast augmentation using implants, a contracted capsule around a poorly positioned implant can act as an obstacle during the corrective procedure to reposition the implant. The ideal treatment of capsular contracture is removal of the capsule and covering the implant with a healthy ...

Contracted Nose after Silicone Implantation: A New Classification System and Treatment Algorithm

Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2017
Background Silicone implants are frequently used in augmentation rhinoplasty in Asians. A common complication of silicone augmentation rhinoplasty is capsular contracture. This is similar to the capsular contracture after augmentation mammoplasty, but a

Capsule formation around breast implants

JPRAS Open, 2022
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 ...
