Innovation for Enhanced Safety

Superior Breast Aesthetics

With more than 30 years of advanced breast implant manufacturing experience, building quality breast implants has always been a natural outcome for Establishment Labs’ founders and top executives. As a result, Motiva Implants^® has established a level of product innovation that always results in safety.
And while we respect our past, we´re more focused on the present and the future, one that´s innovative, safe and progressive. We believe that these goals can be achieved by incorporating the current needs and preferences of plastic surgeons and patients into our product design.
From our comprehensive range of breast implant shapes and sizes for outstanding breast aesthetic results, all the way to our new ProgressiveGel Ultima™ performance characteristics and innovative Q Inside Safety Technology™, our patients and surgeons have come to expect only the best from us. Utilizing the most advanced, state-of-the-art design and manufacturing technologies, Establishment Labs assures that Motiva Implants^® Silicone Breast Implants are the best choice for the most discerning patients and surgeons worldwide.

“Our quality standards for breast implants are the strictest in the industry and our production process is continually inspected by health authorities from high vigilance countries, resulting in more than 60 countries with regulatory approval worldwide.”

-Robert De Mezerville, Global Quality and Clinical Affairs Manager

Our Innovations

TrueMonobloc^®

High Performance Shell.

Our TrueMonobloc® configuration links all components of the implant to the same tensile strength. This allows the shell to act as a whole structure, making insertion easier and improving the implant mechanical qualities under stress.5, 18.
Motiva Implants® mechanical testing results exceed the specifications of the ASTM F-703: Standard Specification for Implantable Breast Prostheses (Section 9.2) 6, required by the FDA and ISO 14607:2009 (Section 7.0).4

BluSeal^®

Full Safety with our Visual Barrier-Layer Indicator.

Our unique and patented barrier layer indicator provides a safety feature only present in Motiva Implants^®. The presence of a barrier layer minimizes silicone gel diffusion into the body, a feature that has been a standard in the industry for more than 20 years. By keeping gel bleed to the minimum, we can significantly reduce the risk of capsular contracture in all Motiva implants.
With our BluSeal^® indicator, surgeons can finally verify the presence of this important safety component surrounding the entire implant. This provides 100% assurance of its presence in every Motiva Implant used. The BluSeal^® indicator has complied with the most rigorous quality and safety standards of the American Society of Testing and Materials and ISO.

Silicone Gel Properties

Rheological Properties

Mastering Viscoelasticity

At Establishment Labs, we have developed all implants within the matrix with the possibility of three different highly cohesive gels, according to the specific design objectives that correspond to the look desired by the patient.
By mastering the rheological properties of our silicone gels, we have been able to control their viscosity and elasticity.
Our silicone gels comply with ASTM F 703-07 Specification for Implantable Breast Prostheses -Section 9.2.1.4 – accepted by the FDA for gel cohesion and Section 10.2- used as a guideline to characterize the firmness of ProgressiveGelTM, Progressive Gel PLUS™ and Progressive Gel Ultima™ and required by the FDA for breast implant gel characterization.

Move to the Next Generation of Silicone Gel for Optimum Performance: Optimum Performance with the Desired Shape!

Make the Right Choice for the Patient.

• The next generation 3D Scanner and simulation system.
• Accurately measure patient’s torso & breast volume.
• Bring the vision of breast augmentation to life for your patient.
• Experience increased efficiency.
• Potential increase in traffic and revenue.

Controlled Surfaces

Motiva Implants^® surfaces are achieved in a single step, with less manipulation of the shell. Controlled surface treatment is accomplished through Motiva 3D Inversion™ Manufacturing Process, with no foreign materials added, resulting in:

SilkSurface^™

NanoSurface™
Average 49,000 contact points of ~13 μm/cm².

VelvetSurface^™

MicroSurface™
1800-2200 contact points of 40-100 Microns depth per cm².

Q Inside Safety Technology^™

Q Inside Safety Technology™, a passive radio frequency identification (RFID) transponder, is the world’s first FDA cleared micro-transponder for use in humans and the only one with a CE-Mark when used in a breast implant. The inclusion of Q Inside Safety Technology™ allows healthcare providers to securely and accurately identify breast implant information from outside of the body, at the point of care. Q Inside Safety Technology™ consists of a biocompatible micro-transponder, programmed with a unique numeric sequence (15 digits) that is accessed by a proprietary handheld reader when waved over the breast area. The 15-digit number delivered to the reader corresponds with a secure, online database that can be accessed via the internet and by authorized persons only.

By utilizing Q Inside Safety Technology™, physicians and patients have access to secure, non-invasive verification of implant-specific data. Unlike product and warranty cards that are typically provided to a patient undergoing breast augmentation or reconstruction, Q Inside Safety Technology™ can never be lost or misplaced. Providing your patients the option of breast implants with Q Inside Safety Technology™ can give them increased peace of mind in the event of a safety issue or device recall, thereby helping to ensure their safety and well-being.

“Q inside safety technology is an FDA cleared, first of its kind technology that provides an electronic serial number from within the body for patient control and verification of their implant, for safety, well-being and in the event of a recall or adverse event.”

TrueTissue Technology^™ & Ergonomix^™

Motiva Ergonomix™ implants have been designed with the surgeon and patient in mind. Plastic surgeons are frustrated about the problems of rotation caused by current anatomical implants and patients and their partners are frustrated about how unnatural those implants look and feel following implantation. Our design team took up the challenge to rethink what a natural breast implant should look like and how it could somehow mimic a natural looking breast. Using the latest tools and techniques available, the answer came from the skillful application of the principles of Ergonomics:

Motiva Ergonomix™ are 100% filled implants that adapt shape after implantation to give the natural look of traditional “anatomical” implants, without the complications associated with rotation and implant hardness. TrueTissue Technology™ is the combination of a specific elastic elastomer shell and the special rheological properties of ProgressiveGel Ultima™, that combine with gravity to shift the maximum point of projection to the lower pole when the patient is in standing position. When the patient lies flat on her back, the implants will react in a similar way to a natural breast and the maximum point of projection will move closer to the middle point of her breast. Motiva Ergonomix™ implants adjust with gravity to the patient’s position, in order to a provide a very natural result.
