Consultation
Dr. Carboy will assess your anatomy, discuss your goals, and help you choose the implant and technique that will produce the best result for you.
Motiva implants are a modern silicone gel implant family designed with several advanced features, including a softer, more responsive gel that mimics natural breast tissue, a smooth nano-textured surface designed to reduce capsular issues, and an embedded identification chip that stores implant information.
The Preservé technique emphasizes meticulous tissue handling, precise pocket dissection, and preservation of important anatomic structures. The combined effect is a procedure designed to feel less invasive, recover more quickly, and produce results that look and feel particularly natural.
Good candidates are healthy adult women who want breast augmentation and are interested in the most advanced implant and surgical technique available. Patients seeking a natural look, a softer feel, and a streamlined recovery often gravitate toward this approach. As with any breast augmentation, candidates should be at a stable weight, have realistic expectations, and be non-smokers for optimal healing. Patients with previous breast surgery, asymmetries, or special anatomic considerations are still candidates and benefit from the careful, individualized planning that this technique requires.
Patients in Bend, Central Oregon, and across the Pacific Northwest are increasingly informed and discerning about the implants placed in their bodies. Many specifically seek out Motiva because of its modern engineering, soft and responsive feel, and reputation for natural results. The Preservé technique appeals to patients who want a quicker, more comfortable recovery and a result that does not look or feel like a traditional implant. For Central Oregon’s active population, the combination of natural feel, durability, and faster return to activity is particularly attractive.
Motiva Preservé breast augmentation is performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. Most patients are surprised by how comfortable they feel even on the first day after surgery. Many return to desk work within three to five days, somewhat sooner than with more traditional techniques, although every patient heals at their own pace. Light cardio typically resumes around three weeks, and full chest workouts at six weeks. The implants continue to settle and soften over three to six months.

We understand that choosing a procedure is a deeply personal decision. Here are answers to some of the most common questions about treatment, recovery, results, and the overall Alpenaura experience.
Motiva implants feature a highly responsive silicone gel, a smooth nano-textured surface, and an embedded identification chip. Many patients and surgeons feel they look and feel more natural than older implant designs.
The Preservé approach is designed to minimize tissue trauma, and most patients report a more comfortable recovery than with traditional techniques. Individual experience still varies.
Many patients return to desk work within three to five days, but every recovery is individual. Heavier work and chest exercise still require the standard six-week protection period.
Yes. Motiva implants are approved for use in the United States. Dr. Carboy will review the most current information during your consultation.
