Motiva® Implants Overview
SilkSurface Plus®
Balanced softness and firmness with a full and round upper breast (aka Motiva® Round)
Ergonomix 1®
Designed to mimic the look, feel, and movement of natural breast tissue
Ergonomix 2®
Designed for improved ergonomy and an even softer implant than Ergonomix®
Know More About Our Implants Technology
Motiva SuperSilicones®
Breast implant shell quality is an essential safety feature and is also key to providing flexibility and other mechanical properties crucial for the device’s performance.4
With the Ergonomix2® implants, Motiva® is introducing a new silicone formulation and shell configuration that improves elongation,5 enhancing its ability to adapt to changes.
Why is this important? The ability to bend easily is essential for the implant to be introduced through small incisions. Ergonomix2® is an implant designed to enhance minimally invasive techniques like Motiva MinimalScar®.
TrueMonobloc®/ TrueMonobloc+®
This feature is a proprietary technology that links the components of the shell and the filling gel to create a more cohesive structure.1
The interaction between the unique features of the components in Ergonomix2® maximizes its bonding properties while conferring the system with more flexibility and adaptability. This gives rise to an upgraded version named TrueMonobloc+®.
Ergonomix2® implants can be compressed to a higher degree than our trusted high-performing Ergonomix®, thus facilitating the insertion of the device through smaller incisions.6
SmoothSilk®/SilkSurface®
An advanced smooth surface designed to enhance biocompatibility.2
Ergonomix2® comes with SmoothSilk®/SilkSurface®, a controlled uniform surface designed and demonstrated to:
• Mitigate the inflammatory and fibrotic response of your body.10
• Limit bacterial load, reducing the risk of biofilm formation.11
• Reduce the prevalence of chronic inflammatory complications, such as double capsules and late seromas.12
ProgressiveGel Ultima®
Natural tissue dynamics resemblance has been the key missing factor in traditional implants due to their predefined shape, which remains unaltered whether the patient is standing up, inclined or lying down.
Motiva® incorporates this organic movement characteristic into Ergonomix2® through the unique viscoelastic properties of the Ultima® gel – holding a round shape when the patient is lying down and forming a natural looking teardrop shape when she is standing.9
The outcome is a gel created with a unique set of properties that provide a better adaptation to movement than other silicone gels tested, resembling the mobility of natural tissue.1
RFID-enabled Implants
The electronic serial number (ESN) and related information about your implants is kept safely through a battery-free and passive radiofrequency identification device3: our Qid®.
This first-of-its-kind safety technology allows your healthcare provider to use an external, hand-held reader to identify details about your Motiva Implants after surgery, even if your printed implant ID card isn’t available.
Motiva® Implants Registration
Do not forget to register!
Registering your implants is for your own peace of mind and years of confidence in your decision. You have a 90-day window after surgery to do it. We’ll walk through it with you!
