The inevitable response to any implant is wound healing comprised of hemostasis, inflammation, repair, and remodeling. For nondegradable smooth-surfaced implants, repair and remodeling leads to isolation of the implant through tissue encapsulation. The nature of the encapsulation tissue and the cellular participants in the immune reaction leading to this outcome varies depending on the site of implantation and the type of tissue that hosts the implant (not to mention the skill of the surgeon).
