Why Implant Shape Matters: Enter Motiva Ergonomix

While traditional implants were broadly divided into round and teardrop shapes, innovations in breast augmentation have made that distinction largely obsolete. Motiva’s Ergonomix® implants are engineered to change shape dynamically depending on your position — appearing round when lying down and adopting a teardrop contour when upright.

This design allows for a natural look and feel, eliminating the need to choose between aesthetic shapes and reducing concerns about rotation or implant shifting — common limitations in older implant models.

Understanding the Motiva Preservé Technique

A gentler, modern approach to breast enhancement

The Motiva Preservé™ technique is a cutting-edge surgical method focused on protecting natural breast tissue and ensuring a smoother, more comfortable healing process. As one of the first surgeons in the UK to offer this technique, I am proud to provide an option that prioritises your long-term results and overall wellbeing.

What Makes Preservé Different?

  • Minimal trauma to your tissue during surgery
  • Smaller, less visible incisions
  • Reduced pain and swelling post-procedure
  • No-touch insertion of implants for enhanced sterility and safety
  • Improved healing and shorter downtime

By combining this technique with Motiva Ergonomix implants, patients enjoy beautifully natural outcomes with significantly improved comfort and recovery.

Advantages of Motiva Ergonomix Implants

  • Dynamic shape-shifting for the most natural appearance in any position
  • Soft and adaptive feel that mimics real breast tissue
  • No risk of shape distortion or rotation
  • Durable and long-lasting (10–15 years on average)
  • Less visible rippling even in patients with minimal natural breast tissue

The combination of these features makes Motiva Ergonomix a preferred choice among patients and surgeons alike.

Is Preservé Right for You?

If you’re seeking a more refined, less invasive breast augmentation journey, Preservé may be ideal. This technique is suitable for most patients and offers particular advantages for those concerned about scarring, post-op discomfort, or recovery time.

A full consultation will include:

  • Detailed body measurements and tissue analysis
  • Discussion of your lifestyle and aesthetic goals
  • Use of imaging technology to preview your potential results

Cost and Long-Term Considerations

While Motiva Ergonomix implants and the Preservé method represent a premium investment, they offer unmatched benefits in terms of aesthetics, safety, and satisfaction.

What’s Included in Your Investment:

  • Surgical fees
  • Anaesthesia and facility costs
  • Implant materials
  • Follow-up care and support

Although insurance typically doesn’t cover cosmetic breast augmentation, financing options are available at many clinics.

Recovery Journey: What to Expect

Recovery using the Preservé technique is often faster and more comfortable than traditional methods:

  • Light activities can resume within 7–10 days
  • Full activity is often possible by 6–8 weeks
  • Less bruising, swelling, and pain reported
  • Wearing a surgical bra and following positional guidance for optimal healing

Every patient’s recovery experience is unique, but the technique’s focus on gentle tissue handling helps most return to their normal routines with confidence and ease.
