Preservé™ Minimally Invasive Implants
What Are Preservé™ Minimally Invasive Implants?
Preservé™ is a specialized breast augmentation system designed to be placed using a smaller incision and a more precise surgical method. The system focuses on preserving natural breast anatomy while reducing trauma to surrounding tissues.
Unlike traditional approaches that may require larger incisions or more extensive dissection, Preservé™ prioritizes precision and controlled placement. This makes it particularly appealing for individuals seeking modest enhancement, improved symmetry, or restoration of volume with an emphasis on a natural look and feel.
The Motiva implants themselves are designed to integrate smoothly with existing breast tissue while supporting long-term aesthetic stability.
Hear From Dr. Waltzman About How Preservé™ Minimally Invasive Implants Work
How Do Preservé™ Minimally Invasive Implants Work?
Preservé™ implants are placed using a carefully planned surgical technique that limits tissue disruption. During the procedure, Dr. Waltzman creates a small, strategically placed incision that allows for controlled implant insertion while maintaining the integrity of surrounding structures.
Key aspects of the approach include:
- Reduced incision size
- Less anesthesia and quicker recovery. Preserve can be safely performed under IV sedation without the use of a “breathing tube”. Your surgery is still under the care of a board-certified anesthesiologist
- Precise implant positioning
- Minimal disruption to breast tissue and muscle
- Focus on preserving natural anatomy
This method allows for accurate shaping and symmetry while supporting a smoother recovery process. The procedure is performed in an accredited surgical setting with meticulous attention to detail.
Am I a Good Candidate for Preservé™ Minimally Invasive Implants?
Preservé™ may be an excellent option for individuals who desire enhancement without dramatic changes in size or structure. You may be a good candidate if:
- You want a natural-looking increase in volume
- You prefer a minimally invasive surgical approach
- You have adequate existing breast tissue
- You are in good overall health
- You have an active lifestyle, and returning to normal activity is important
- You prefer the idea of less anesthesia and a quicker recovery time
This technique is best suited for first-time augmentation candidates. During consultation, Dr. Waltzman evaluates anatomy, skin quality, goals, and lifestyle to determine whether Preservé™ aligns with your expectations.
What Results Can I Expect From Preservé™ Minimally Invasive Implants?
Results from Preservé™ with Motiva implants are designed to appear balanced, proportionate, and natural. Many individuals appreciate the subtle enhancement that complements their body rather than overpowering it.
Expected outcomes may include:
- Improved breast volume and shape
- Enhanced symmetry
- A soft, natural feel
- Incisions that heal discreetly
Final results continue to refine as swelling resolves and tissues settle. Dr. Waltzman emphasizes realistic expectations and careful planning to ensure outcomes align with individual anatomy and goals.
What Is Recovery Like After Preservé™ Breast Augmentation?
Recovery after a Preservé™ procedure is often smoother than with more invasive techniques, though individual experiences can vary. Most people can expect:
- Mild to moderate soreness in the early postoperative period
- Temporary swelling or tightness
- A shorter recovery time than standard breast implant placement methods
Patients typically return to normal activity in 2 days and return to the gym in 2 weeks, compared with 4-6 weeks for traditional breast augmentation.
Because the technique minimizes tissue disruption, many individuals experience less discomfort and a quicker return to daily routines. Dr. Waltzman provides detailed postoperative instructions and ongoing support to promote optimal healing and results.
Return to Life Faster & Quicker After Surgery
ELIXIR MD™, an FDA-cleared medical-grade device, is exclusively designed to transform post-surgical care. It employs advanced photobiomodulation technology, infusing energy into the skin with varying light wavelengths. Each wavelength is precisely calibrated to penetrate different skin layers, enhancing specific healing mechanisms. Deeper wavelengths stimulate cellular repair and tissue regeneration, while surface-level wavelengths reduce redness and swelling.
