Motiva Breast Implants in Miami

What Are Motiva Implants?

Motiva implants are silicone gel breast implants made by Establishment Labs. In September 2024 the FDA approved two Motiva models for primary and revision breast augmentation in women 22 and older: SmoothSilk Round and SmoothSilk Round Ergonomix. It was the first new breast implant approval in the US in more than ten years. CG Cosmetic offers both models.

Both models have the SmoothSilk shell surface. The difference is the gel: the Round model uses a firmer gel (ProgressiveGel Plus) that gives more upper fullness, and Ergonomix uses a softer gel (ProgressiveGel Ultima) that the manufacturer designed to move and settle with your body. In the US, Motiva implants are not yet approved for breast reconstruction.

Motiva vs Mentor MemoryGel BOOST vs Standard Implants

CG Cosmetic also offers Mentor MemoryGel BOOST, a silicone implant from Mentor (Johnson & Johnson MedTech) with a highly cohesive gel designed to hold its shape while keeping a natural feel. The FDA approved it in 2022 for breast augmentation in women 22 and older and for breast reconstruction. Standard saline and silicone implants remain good options for many patients. This table summarizes the main differences:

Choosing Your Motiva Implant

At your consultation the surgeon examines your chest, measures your breast width and skin, and talks about the look you want. Together you decide:

• Model: Round for more upper fullness, or Ergonomix for a softer, more sloped look
• Size and profile: based on your measurements; you can try sizers to see the volume
• Placement: under the muscle (submuscular) or over the muscle (subglandular)
• Incision: usually in the fold under the breast or around the areola

The surgery itself is the same as any silicone breast augmentation. Motiva implants can also be used when you replace older implants; see breast revision surgery.

Recovery, Follow-Up and Warranty

• Recovery: desk work is often possible in 1 to 2 weeks; heavier lifting and vigorous exercise usually wait 4 to 6 weeks. Your surgeon gives you written instructions.
• Implant ID card: you receive the brand, model, size and serial numbers of your implants. Keep this card.
• Warranty: Motiva and Mentor each have a manufacturer warranty program. You register your implants with the manufacturer yourself after surgery, following the instructions that come with your implant card.
• Screening: silicone implants can rupture without symptoms. The FDA recommends an ultrasound or MRI 5 to 6 years after surgery and then every 2 to 3 years, even if you feel fine.

Call the clinic right away if you notice fever, sudden swelling of one breast, increasing pain or redness, shortness of breath or chest pain.

Risks of Breast Implants

Motiva and Mentor BOOST implants have the same types of risks as other breast implants. Breast implants are not lifetime devices, and the longer you have them, the more likely you are to need another surgery. Risks include:

• Capsular contracture (hardening of the scar tissue around the implant)
• Rupture or leakage, which may be silent with silicone implants
• Implant shifting, rippling or asymmetry, and the need for a reoperation
• Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL), a rare cancer of the immune system
• Symptoms some patients report as breast implant illness, such as fatigue or joint pain
• Infection, bleeding, changes in nipple or breast sensation, and reactions to anesthesia

Before surgery you review the FDA patient decision checklist and the manufacturer's patient information with your surgeon. Results vary from person to person.
