Motiva vs. Traditional Implants — here’s what makes them different 👇
The biggest difference is the surface. Traditional smooth implants feel like glass. Motiva’s SmoothSilk surface has a micro-texture under 10 microns that you can actually feel in your hand, and that difference changes how your body responds to the implant.
Two of the biggest risks with any breast implant are capsular contracture (scar tissue hardening) and breast implant illness/ALCL, both driven by inflammation. The cells responsible are macrophages and myofibroblasts. Science is now showing us that a textured surface under 10 microns is actually less inflammatory than a smooth implant and helps control both of those cell types.
A recent study published in Nature confirmed that the SmoothSilk shell has the least inflammatory response of any implant surface tested.
