What Happens During a Motiva® Preservé Breast Enhancement?
On the day of your Motiva® Preservé procedure, you’ll arrive at a fully accredited surgical center about an hour before your scheduled time. This allows you to settle in comfortably and meet with Dr. Erica Anderson and your anesthesia provider to review your treatment plan and address any final questions before surgery begins.
Once you are safely under anesthesia, Dr. Anderson will begin the procedure using the small, discreet incisions planned during your consultation. These incisions are typically placed in the natural crease beneath the breast, allowing for excellent access while keeping scars as minimal and hidden as possible. Through these tiny openings, Dr. Anderson creates precise pockets to accommodate the Motiva implants. Thanks to the flexibility of Motiva implants, the pockets can be made with less tissue disruption than traditional augmentation techniques. She then uses the Keller Funnel, a sterile, no‑touch insertion device, to place the implants gently and efficiently.
After the implants are positioned and symmetry is confirmed, Dr. Anderson closes the incisions with dissolvable sutures for a smooth, clean finish. The entire Motiva Preservé procedure typically takes about one to two hours, depending on your customized surgical plan.
What to Expect During Northern Virginia Motiva® Preservé Breast Enhancement Recovery?
Recovery after a Motiva® Preservé breast enhancement is typically smoother and faster than traditional breast augmentation. Most patients are pleasantly surprised by how manageable the healing process feels and how quickly they can return to their normal routines.
In the first few days, it is normal to experience mild swelling, tightness, and discomfort as your body adjusts to the implants. These symptoms usually improve quickly, and many patients feel well enough to resume light daily activities within 3 to 5 days. Because Motiva implants can be inserted through smaller incisions with less tissue disruption, downtime is often shorter and more comfortable. Swelling resolves within the first few weeks, with the implants settling into their final position over the next 6 to 12 weeks. As the tissues relax and the breasts soften, your results will continue to look more natural and refined.
Throughout your healing journey, Dr. Anderson and her team remain available to answer questions, provide reassurance, and ensure you feel supported every step of the way. She recommends prioritizing plenty of rest time and avoiding strenuous activities for at least three weeks. You may resume light exercise within a week, but it’s important to listen to your body and slowly build your workout intensity over time.
