What are Motiva Breast Implants?

Here at THE PLUS we emphasize natural, comfortable and beautiful results, which is why we regularly recommend choosing Motiva implants for your breast implant surgery.
The Motiva Ergonomix® breast implants provide the look, feel, and movement of natural breasts. The soft and elastic gel adapts to the natural breast shape and profile, maintaining its suppleness over time.
Motiva implants are completely safe. These US FDA-approved implants were designed using ergonomic T-silicone gel and are highly durable. Motiva implants provide flexibility and precision, reducing the length of incisions during surgery, and therefore reducing risk of post-operative complications and scarring.
Additionally, Motiva offers RFID tags for product information on the implants used, which makes ensuring safety extremely convenient for Motiva patients.

Why are implants better than fat grafting?

Here at THE PLUS, we often recommend breast implants over fat grafting for patients who want fuller, more predictable results. Fat grafting is limited to about 150cc per breast, while implants start at a volume of 300cc, making it the ideal choice for those looking for a more noticeable enhancement. Unlike fat transfer, implants provide long-lasting volume without concerns of fat resorption, which can reduce breast size over time, and without the changes that come with weight fluctuations. With implants like Motiva Ergonomix®, you can enjoy beautifully natural results that remain stable, soft, and elegant for years to come.

How is Breast Implant Surgery Done?

When undergoing breast implant surgery at THE PLUS, we take several factors into consideration in order to personalize your treatment to obtain the desired results. Implant type and placement, and the incision method for inserting the implants are all discussed and decided with the doctor to maximize efficacy and results

Implant Placement

breast implants in Korea the plus plastic surgery gangnam
the plus plastic surgery in gangnam south korea

Dual Plane

A method in which implants are placed partially below the pectoral muscles.

This is currently the most commonly performed method, as it creates a natural teardrop-shaped breast and has the advantage of preventing double-line formation. This method also minimizes the risks of a single-pocket placement.
As this method involves making an incision in the muscle, it has a relatively longer recovery period, but often yields better results.

Subglandular

A method in which the implants are placed above the muscle and below the breast soft tissue.

This method allows for the expansion of the deflated skin envelope and decreases the incidence of the “double bubble” deformity. This method is only suitable for patients with sufficient glandular tissue, as the implant may be visible in those with thin skin.
Because there is no incision into the muscle, the surgery is relatively shorter and less likely to cause pain, thus having the advantage of a shorter recovery period.

Submuscular

A method in which the implants are placed underneath the pectoral muscles.

This method allows greater tissue coverage of the implant, a more natural appearance and feel, less palpability of the implant, and potentially less risk of capsular contracture.
This method is preferred by people who are slim and who have less subcutaneous breast tissue, as it is effective in dramatically enlarging small breasts while creating a natural appearance.

Incision Method

Transaxillary

(Armpit incision)

An approximately 3-4cm incision is made in the natural folds of the armpit. This approach leaves no scars on the breast.

Peri-Areolar

(Areola edge incision)

breast implants in korea the plus plastic surgery gangnam

The incision is made along the lower border of the areola, where the darker skin of the areola meets the lighter skin of the breast.

Inframammary

(Under breast incision)

The incision is placed along the crease under the breast and leaves discreet scarring. Surgeons have more visibility, precision, and control with this incision.

Had a fantastic experience with The Plus Clinic! We were partnered with Dana, our English translator for all our visits to the clinic, and she was so great. Even though we had Dana, Dr. Kim was easy to converse with in English, and he was very knowledgeable and understanding. He even suggested a different procedure over the one I had signed up for because it would give me the results I was aiming for. Dr. Kim was with us every step for the way; we were thrilled about this because we did not want a factory clinic. Everyone was very courteous, kind, and respectful. They went out of their way to make our appointments fit our visit to Seoul. Would recommend highly!!

I’m naturally a very nervous person, and the idea of having surgery scared me a lot. But the moment I stepped into THE PLUS Plastic Surgery clinic in Seoul, I felt calm. The atmosphere created by the coordinators, nurses, and especially my surgeon was so warm and caring that my anxiety simply disappeared. I had my rhinoplasty performed by Dr. Jaeyong Jeong, MD, PhD — a plastic surgeon specializing in rhinoplasty. We had three detailed consultations before the surgery, and he always listened to me patiently, answered all my questions, and made sure I felt completely comfortable every step of the way. His attention to detail and care gave me full trust in the process. On the day of surgery, I surprisingly felt very calm. I tolerated the anesthesia well, recovered quickly, and was even able to walk back to my hotel the same day. Now it’s day 11 post-op, and while I’m still healing, the first week — which I feared the most — passed smoothly without any pain or complications. The nurses were so kind and attentive during stitch removal, and I felt genuinely cared for. I’m incredibly grateful to Dr. Jeong and the entire team at THE PLUS for making such an important and emotional step in my life feel safe, gentle, and positive. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

My experience at this clinic was world class. Not only because Seoul is better known to have one of the best aeathetic augmentation service and facilities. This clinic has provided me trust from the outset by all staff, both online and on site. The surgeon (Dr. Kim) is highly highly knowledgeable and more importantly very kind. He didn't recommend a procedure which I did not require at my age. I trusted this surgeon from the get go and surely he delivered the result. I only had a minor procedure but due to his skilled hands and his assistants, he made my entire face more youthful and energetic. Thank you. Post surgery - I am extremely satisfied of the results. I recommend this surgeon and clinic without reservation. They are truly world class and I trust them with my body. I may come back for more! Thank you everyone. 대단히 고맙습니다.
