Motiva Implants: Just Like My Natural Breasts? Here's Why It's Possible

Motiva Implants: Just Like My Natural Breasts? Here's Why It's Possible

Speaking of breasts, this is Melon Plastic Surgery.

Even with the same ingredients and recipe, the taste and visual appeal of a dish can vary greatly depending on the skill and experience of the chef. That's why, for delicious cooking, the trifecta of good ingredients, a good recipe, and a good chef is crucial.

Breast augmentation is no different. Even when using the same implant material, the ability to achieve a natural look varies among surgeons.

We always emphasize that rather than a 'premium' implant automatically guaranteeing natural and the best results, it's the selection of the right implant for you, the appropriate surgical method, and the surgeon that are most important.

Motiva, which we'll discuss today, is among the most expensive and falls into the category of premium implants. Its distinguishing feature is its ability to create a natural breast line that looks beautifully innate, without any hollowing in the upper breast area.

‘I call Motiva 'real breasts'.

It brings out the inherent volume and feel of breasts as if they were naturally yours.’

- Kim Ju-won, Melon's Breast Specialist

Motiva is an implant chosen by 2 million people over two years. Establishment Labs, with over 30 years of implant manufacturing experience, produces Motiva Ergonomix.

It is available on the market in two versions: one with a built-in UDI (Unique Device Identification) chip and one without.

Why is Motiva so sought after?

There's a reason why something is widely preferred. Motiva's biggest advantages are its product safety, guaranteed by a 10-year warranty against implant rupture and capsular contracture, and a 5-year after-sales service, as well as its technological capability to achieve a soft touch and shape that feels just like your own natural breasts.

Shall we talk about Motiva's charms one by one?

1. Natural shape and movement, just like your own

Real breasts naturally spread out moderately when lying down and drop slightly when standing. For breasts to look natural, the implant must naturally follow your body's movements.

Motiva's ergonomically engineered gel has excellent viscosity and elasticity, allowing its shape to change naturally with gravity. It mimics the fluid movement of real breasts. This is possible due to its low viscosity and high elasticity.

2. Superior volume and texture

When Motiva Ergonomix is magnified 60 times, you can see a smooth silk surface, just like real skin. Made with 3D printing, its uniform surface texture offers excellent biocompatibility with surrounding tissues when inserted, creating a natural yet soft feel and volume without capsular contracture.

3. Minimized risk of capsular contracture and deformation

One of the biggest concerns many people have when undergoing breast surgery is capsular contracture. Capsular contracture typically occurs between 4 and 6 months after surgery. It's caused by the abnormal thickening and hardening of the capsule surrounding the implant during the tissue recovery process.

To prevent such side effects, taking medication to prevent capsular contracture after surgery is one measure, but first and foremost, the surgery must be performed correctly, and the technological prowess of the implant's shell, which allows it to blend naturally with the tissue, also plays a role.

Therefore, Motiva's shell is a smooth silk type with a uniform surface, minimizing inflammation during the formation of the capsule after surgery.

A fine surface texture and microscopic groove size mean less physical irritation. This delicate surface, which reduces fibrosis, lowers the risk of complications such as hematoma, capsular contracture, and seroma.

4. Robust durability and stable shape retention

Motiva features 'BlueSeal Technology'. A thin blue membrane, called the BlueSeal Barrier Layer, exists between the outer shell and the inner filler. This membrane allows for visual inspection of the product's safety status and prevents gel leakage if it were to rupture.

Furthermore, rupture detection tests are strictly conducted according to ISO 14607 regulatory standards and ASTM, ensuring peace of mind.

5. Application of UDI (Unique Device Identification)

When buying home appliances, what we value most is after-sales service. That's why we often choose brands with thorough AS, even if they cost more.

Motiva also incorporates a UDI (Unique Device Identification) system for comprehensive after-sales service. This system uses a microchip to identify implant information, allowing patients to receive financial support for re-operation costs from the company in case of complications. Basic AS for rupture and capsular contracture stages 3 and 4 provides re-operation cost support within 5 years of surgery.

6. 100% filling for fuller breasts and a variety of model choices

Just as every person's body shape is different, choosing the right implant according to body type is essential for a natural appearance. Those with small chest cage sizes, in particular, often worry about not achieving a full look due to limited space for the implant.

Motiva offers delicate size selection for various body types, including slender builds, sagging breasts, and asymmetry. With a 100% filling rate, you can achieve a fuller feeling even with the same cup size as other implants. A key point for beautiful breasts is appropriate upper breast volume. After childbirth, this upper breast area often deflates, making the breasts appear smaller and saggier. Motiva naturally fills this upper breast, allowing for more beautiful breast expression.

Motiva is a globally recognized implant, having received European CE, Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, ISO 13485, Medical Device GMP compliance, Medical Device Single Audit Program, and US LEED Council GOLD certification, ensuring both safety and beauty. It is currently used in 80 countries and has a very low re-operation rate due to fewer ruptures or capsular contractures.

Today, we've learned about Motiva implants.

Since everyone's physical conditions, lifestyles, and financial situations are different, it's difficult to say that Motiva is unconditionally the best method!
