The company's technology restores hardened or damaged arteries and tissues by targeting the
elastic fiber and removing the calcification that causes stiffening.
Collagen and
elastic fiber contents of the dermis perform a complimentary role in maintaining skin shape and firmness.

elastic fiber phagocytosis," Archives of Dermatology, vol.
Whether the decrease and change in
elastic fiber content in anetoderma arises from decreased production or increased destruction is not well understood.
In intrinsically aged skin,
elastic fiber atrophy occurs, thereby reducing skin elasticity [22].
Flereby, the fibers and the polymer matrix are divided into two separate domains, which are displayed as an
elastic fiber domain (grey, velocity vector v) and a viscous polymer matrix domain (red, velocity vector u).
This feature is not characteristic of PPFE, because in PPFE there is a homogenous intra-alveolar fibrosis with generally preserved alveolar structure and even thickening of the alveolar structures through the process of
elastic fiber deposition.
Elastic Fiber Matrices: Biomimetic Approaches to Regeneration and Repair
The complexity of
elastic fiber biogenesis in the skin--a perspective to the clinical heterogeneity of cutis laxa.
seen under a scanning electron microscope, allow an
elastic fiber to conduct electrical current when stretched.
T400' fiber is a new melt-spun
elastic fiber from INVISTA, based on multi- component technology that revolutionizes the comfort, hand, wrinkle resistance and easy care of contemporary fabrics.
