Implant options

Implants, placement, and shape

Breast augmentation is not a one-size procedure. Dr. Daniela walks you through the four decisions that define your result — and lets you see each option in 3D before you commit.

Motiva Ergonomix+ implants for breast augmentation

Motiva Ergonomix+

Next-generation ergonomic silicone with TrueFixation surface. Natural dynamic behavior (the implant changes shape as you move). Preferred for patients prioritizing natural feel and look.

Mentor MemoryGel Xtra breast implants

Mentor MemoryGel Xtra

FDA-approved silicone implants with a 10+ year safety track record. Cohesive gel that holds shape. Preferred when insurance back-home reimbursement may depend on FDA brand.

Submuscular vs subfascial breast implant placement

Placement: sub-muscular or sub-fascial

Below the pectoralis muscle (more natural in thin patients, slightly longer recovery) or under the fascia (faster recovery, preferred for patients with some breast tissue). Decided by anatomy, not preference.

Crisalix 3D simulation for breast augmentation consultation

3D simulation — Crisalix

In your consultation, you'll see your own body in 3D with different implant volumes and projections. Try moderate, high-profile, ultra-high. Decide based on what you actually see, not guesswork.

FAQ

Breast augmentation frequently asked questions

What implant brands does Dr. Daniela use?
Primarily Motiva Ergonomix+ (next-gen ergonomic silicone) and Mentor MemoryGel Xtra (FDA-approved). Both are premium silicone gel implants. The choice depends on your anatomy, aesthetic goal, and whether FDA approval matters for insurance or peace of mind. Allergan/Natrelle implants are no longer used due to the BIA-ALCL recall of their textured line.
How do I choose the right size?
You don't decide alone — and you don't decide in cup sizes. During consultation, we use Crisalix 3D simulation: you see your own body with different implant volumes (250cc, 325cc, 400cc, etc.) and projections (moderate, high, ultra-high) on-screen. At the in-person pre-op, you can also try physical sizers inside a sports bra. Final decision is confirmed before the OR.
Do I need to replace implants after 10 years?
No — that's a myth. Modern silicone implants are not on a fixed replacement timer. They are lifetime devices unless a specific issue occurs (rupture, capsular contracture, or you want a size change). Motiva and Mentor both offer warranty programs covering rupture for 10+ years. Routine MRI or ultrasound at year 5 and 7 post-op is recommended by the FDA for silicone monitoring.
Can I breastfeed after breast augmentation?
Yes, in most cases. The surgical approach Dr. Daniela uses (submammary incision, sub-muscular or sub-fascial placement) preserves the milk ducts and nipple nerves. That said, roughly 1 in 4 women have breastfeeding challenges regardless of surgery (anatomy-dependent). If future breastfeeding is a priority, mention it during consultation so the surgical plan can optimize for it.
What incision will I have?
The most common is the inframammary (submammary) incision — along the natural fold under the breast. It's 4–5 cm and heals well-hidden. Alternatives are periareolar (around the nipple) or transaxillary (armpit) — less common and decided based on your anatomy. All incision choices are explained in 3D during consultation.
How long until I can exercise?
Light walking: day 2. Normal desk work: day 7–10. Gym (lower body only): 3 weeks. Chest and upper-body workouts: 6–8 weeks. Running/HIIT: 4 weeks. The timeline depends on placement (sub-muscular takes longer than sub-fascial).
How long do I need to stay in Medellín?
10 days total (isolated breast augmentation). Pre-op day 1, surgery day 2 with overnight observation, recovery hotel with daily nursing days 3–7, final clearance day 7–10. Combined cases (aug + lift, or Mommy Makeover) need 12–14 days.
