What to Expect?
During a Preservé breast augmentation procedure, specialized surgical tools and techniques are used to carefully create space for the implant while preserving natural breast tissue. The surgery typically involves small, discreet incisions placed within the natural breast fold, allowing implants such as the Motiva Ergonomix2® silicone implant to be positioned with precision. Surgeons often use a no-touch insertion technique, which helps maintain sterility and reduce contamination risk. The implant is gently placed above the muscle in many cases, allowing the breast to maintain natural movement and softness. The procedure is usually performed as an outpatient surgery under general anesthesia and often takes less than an hour to complete.
Recovery Time
Because Preservé breast augmentation focuses on minimizing disruption to muscles and surrounding tissues, recovery is often quicker than with more traditional approaches. Most patients return home the same day after surgery and can resume light daily activities within a few days. Mild swelling or tenderness is expected early in the healing process, but discomfort is generally manageable. Over time, incisions fade into thin lines within the natural breast crease, and the implants settle into a soft, natural position as the body heals.
