The Advantages of Motiva® Breast Implants: A Plastic Surgeon’s Perspective

As a seasoned plastic surgeon with extensive experience in breast augmentation, I’ve witnessed firsthand the transformative impact of choosing the right implant. Among the myriad options available, Motiva® breast implants stand out as a revolutionary choice for patients seeking safety, natural aesthetics, and long-term satisfaction. Having performed the first Motiva® breast augmentation in the Pacific Northwest in our own Seattle plastic surgery clinic, I can personally attest to the high plastic surgeon and patient satisfaction with Motiva® implants.  Motiva® implants offer some key advantages that make them an exceptional option for anyone considering breast enhancement.
1. Natural Look and Feel
Motiva® implants are designed to mimic the behavior and dynamics of natural breast tissue. Motiva’s ProgressiveGel® PLUS is engineered to retain a consistently round, full shape regardless of whether you are standing or lying down, ensuring a firm and youthful appearance at all times. In contrast, their ProgressiveGel® ULTIMA®—used in Ergonomix® implants—is uniquely formulated to adapt its shape with your body’s movements, presenting a round profile when lying down and naturally shifting to a teardrop contour when standing, closely mimicking the look and feel of real breast tissue.
2. Advanced Safety Features
Patient safety is paramount in any surgical procedure, and Motiva® implants excel in this area. These implants incorporate several innovative features that reduce common risks:
BluSeal® Barrier: A visible blue-tinted layer within the implant shell ensures integrity during surgery and acts as an additional safeguard against silicone leakage.
SmoothSilk® Technology: The biocompatible surface minimizes inflammation and reduces the risk of capsular contracture, a complication associated with traditional implants.
These safety features are backed by rigorous testing and FDA approval, offering patients confidence in their choice.
3. Durability and Longevity
Motiva® implants are engineered to last. Their shell design is engineered for enhanced structural integrity, reducing the risk of rupture even under stress. This durability not only ensures long-term reliability but also simplifies the insertion process for surgeons, potentially leading to quicker recovery times for patients. For those seeking an investment in their appearance that stands the test of time, Motiva® can deliver.
4. Customization Options
Every patient is unique, and Motiva® recognizes this by offering tailored solutions to meet individual goals.  Their two aesthetic breast implant options differ in material (gel) and shape, and each offers a unique profile and benefits:
Motiva Ergonomix® implants are crafted for natural movement and fluid aesthetics, responding to your body’s motion and position to offer a soft, lifelike feel. Their innovative design allows them to take on a sloped, teardrop shape when standing and a rounder shape when lying down—mimicking the dynamics of natural breast tissue. This implant is especially popular among patients drawn to the sleek, elegant look of the trending “ballet body” or “ballerina breasts.” Whether you're looking for a subtle enhancement or a fuller, more augmented appearance, Motiva Ergonomix® helps achieve beautifully natural-looking results.

Motiva Round®: Designed to maintain their round shape whether standing or lying down, these implants offer consistent upper pole fullness with a soft, natural feel. They’re a great option for patients looking to enhance cleavage and achieve a fuller appearance in the upper breast, all while prioritizing comfort and safety.

This versatility allows surgeons to personalize procedures based on your body type, lifestyle preferences, and aesthetic aspirations.
Motiva® breast implants combine innovation with reliability, offering unmatched benefits in terms of aesthetics, safety, and durability. While they may come at a slightly higher initial cost compared to some other brands, their superior quality and long-term advantages make them a worthwhile investment for many patients.
Choose Board-Certified and ASPS Plastic Surgeons for Motiva Implants
If you’re considering breast augmentation, consult with an ABMS board-certified plastic surgeon who can guide you through your options and ensure your procedure is performed safely in an accredited facility. This is especially crucial as Motiva® distributes their implants through Board-certified plastic surgeons only.

While Motiva® implants are newly FDA-approved in the U.S., they have been safely used in over 86 countries for more than 14 years. Many plastic surgeons in the U.S. may not yet be familiar with or have experience using them, but patients can easily find qualified providers in their area through the official Motiva® website. For more information on safe practices in plastic surgery, we also recommend visiting reputable organizations such as the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS).

Motiva® breast implants represent the future of breast augmentation—a blend of artistry and science that prioritizes patient satisfaction at every step. As the first plastic surgeon to perform a Motiva® implant in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest, I can attest to its soaring popularity and extraordinary results.  And as a surgeon committed to helping patients achieve exceptional results, I highly recommend them for individuals seeking both beauty and peace of mind in their enhancement journey.
