Preservé by Motiva is a revolutionary approach to breast augmentation that prioritizess tissue preservation, minimal invasiveness, and natural-appearing outcomes. This ground-breaking technique combines specialized surgical instruments with advanced Motiva Ergonomix2 implants to deliver beautiful results while protecting your natural breast structures. Unlike traditional breast augmentation methods that often disrupt muscle tissue and require extensive recovery, Preservé focuses on your unique anatomy to create a gentle yet effective surgical experience.
The system incorporates proprietary technologies designed specifically to minimize tissue trauma and enhance patient safety. By elongating native breast tissues to create space for the implant rather than cutting through them, this approach reduces complications and supports faster healing. Patients benefit from smaller scars, fewer device-related complications, and preservation of breast sensation and function.
How Does Preservé Work During Surgery?
The Preservé technique utilizes three specialized tools that work together to create optimal results while protecting your breast anatomy:
- Motiva Channel Separator: A single-use instrument with a blunt tip that creates a tunnel to the desired breast pocket location using circular rotation movements to gently separate internal tissue
- Motiva Inflatable Balloon: Gradually inflates to elongate tissues in a controlled manner, creating a three-dimensional space customized to your unique chest anatomy
- Motiva Insertion Sleeve: Allows surgeons to deploy the SmoothSilk Ergonomix2 implant through smaller incisions using a no-touch technique that minimizes infection risk
The procedure begins with the Channel Separator creating a tunnel through gentle tissue separation rather than cutting. Next, the Inflatable Balloon is inserted and gradually expanded to create the breast pocket by moving breast tissues aside radially. This three-dimensional space is customized to your chest anatomy, enlisting adjacent ligaments to deliver implant stability. Finally, the Insertion Sleeve deploys the implant through a smaller incision, supporting shorter procedure times and enhanced safety.
What Are the Benefits of the Preservé Approach?
Preservé has noteworthy advantages over customary breast augmentation procedures, principally in tissue protection and recovery timelines. The muscle-sparing placement means you experience less post-operative discomfort and can return to normal activities more quickly.
Key benefits include:
- Faster Recovery: Less tissue trauma allows most patients to resume light activities within days rather than weeks
- Preserved Sensation: Protects nerve pathways to maintain natural breast sensitivity and functionality
- Enhanced Stability: Clinical studies report zero percent rate of inferior malposition at three years
- Minimal Scarring: Incisions typically measure 2.5 to 3.5 centimeters and fade to thin lines hidden in the natural breast fold
- Natural Appearance: Creates more authentic breast movement and contour
- Smaller Implants: Tissue preservation and shaping allow many patients to achieve desired volume with less implant size
The preservation technique respects your natural breast architecture throughout the augmentation process, resulting in outcomes that look and feel remarkably natural. Clinical studies validate the Preservé system’s ability to enhance implant stability, with one revealing a no chance of inferior malposition at three years.
What Technology Makes Motiva Implants Unique?
The Preservé system pairs exclusively with Motiva’s SmoothSilk Ergonomix2 implants, which feature advanced technologies designed for safety and natural results. These implants represent the latest innovation in breast enhancement, combining multiple proprietary features:
- SmoothSilk Surface: A four-micron surface that promotes biocompatibility and reduces inflammation while minimizing capsular contracture and bacterial adhesion
- ProgressiveGel ULTIMA: A responsive silicone gel that adapts to body movements and mimics natural breast tissue, offering 45% more softness, 23% greater adaptability, and 32% higher elongation
- TrueMonobloc Technology: Creates a uniform, super-soft breast with superior characteristics
- BluSeal Layer: Adds an extra protective barrier for enhanced safety
- Zen RFID Technology: Enables quick, non-invasive implant verification compatible with all breast imaging methods, including MRI
The implants employ Progressive Gel ULTIMA, a responsive silicone gel that acclimates to your movements and mimics your natural breast tissue. This gel formulation makes the implants exceptionally soft and pliable, resulting in a breast augmentation that looks and feels remarkably natural. These innovations work together to provide enhanced safety and peace of mind throughout your augmentation journey.
Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Preservé?
Ideal candidates for Preservé are individuals in good overall health with realistic expectations about breast augmentation outcomes. This technique is particularly well-suited for:
- Patients seeking minimally invasive approaches with faster recovery times
- Women who want to preserve breast sensation and functionality
- Active individuals who need to return to their routines quickly
- Those who have experienced volume loss due to pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or aging
- Candidates prioritizing natural-looking results with authentic breast movement
- Patients concerned about minimizing visible scarring
If you long for breast enhancement tailored exclusively to your anatomy while preserving breast function and sensation, Preservé could be an excellent option. The procedure requires specialized training and expertise, performed only by surgeons certified through the ESTA Learning Center.
During your consultation, your surgeon will evaluate your breast anatomy, skin quality, and aesthetic goals to determine if Preservé aligns with your needs. Your HKB plastic surgeon will discuss your overall health, assess your chest anatomy, and clarify how Preservé can help you achieve your desired outcome. You may also learn about complementary procedures like breast lift if you’re experiencing sagging in addition to volume loss.
What Should You Expect During Recovery?
Recovery from Preservé breast augmentation is generally faster and more comfortable than traditional methods. The muscle-sparing approach significantly reduces post-operative discomfort, allowing most patients to return to light activities within a few days.
Recovery Timeline and Expectations
- First 24-48 Hours: Rest at home with someone to assist you; manage mild discomfort with prescribed medications
- First Week: Wear a support or surgical bra to minimize swelling and stabilize the breast pocket as tissues heal
- First Few Weeks: Attend follow-up appointments so your surgeon can monitor healing progress
- Several Months: Notice scars fading to thin lines hidden in the natural breast crease
We will help you manage initial swelling and mild discomfort are normal with prescribed medications. Your surgical team will provide detailed aftercare instructions to optimize your healing. While individual recovery experiences vary, the minimally invasive nature of Preservé typically allows patients to resume normal activities more quickly than with traditional breast augmentation.
