Breast augmentation has evolved significantly over the past two decades, but the core surgical approach has stayed largely consistent until recently. Preservé changes that equation, offering a minimally invasive technique developed to improve both the patient experience and the final outcome.
For women who want natural-looking results with less disruption and a faster return to daily life, it represents a meaningful step forward in what breast augmentation can offer.
What is Preservé Breast Augmentation?
Traditional breast augmentation often requires more extensive tissue release to create space for implants. Preservé uses refined surgical techniques and specialized instruments to minimize tissue disruption, helping preserve natural breast support, movement, and long-term stability.
The difference in approach produces several practical advantages for patients:
- A smaller incision: The incision measures roughly three-quarters to one inch, placed in the lower breast crease, smaller than other techniques require.
- No cutting to create the pocket: Rather than surgically cutting tissue, the pocket forms through gentle expansion using a Motiva inflatable balloon, keeping ligaments and muscles intact while surrounding tissue displaces evenly to accommodate the implant.
- Better long-term support: During tissue expansion, the supporting ligaments tighten, creating a firm nest around the implant, providing better support and ensuring it stays stable in place.
Preserved nipple sensation: Because natural tissues sustain less disruption, Preservé may help maintain normal breast and nipple sensation, though temporary or permanent changes remain possible with any breast surgery.
