Breast implants

  • A strategic decision has been made to discontinue the production and future availability of our 1050 and 1060 cc implants. This decision is part of our commitment to refining our product portfolio and ensuring the sustained excellence of our offerings. We understand the impact this may have and apologize for any inconvenience. Patients who previously had surgery with 1050/1060 cc do not need to be worried. The current product safety is not compromised with this decision. Please find attached the official communication.

  • Breast implant surgery should not be performed in women with active infections anywhere in their body, existing carcinoma of the breast (without mastectomy), with advanced fibrocystic disease considered premalignant (without accompanying subcutaneous mastectomy), any disease clinically known to impact wound-healing ability, tissue characteristics clinically incompatible with mammoplasty, any condition – or treatment – determined by the surgeon to constitute an unjustifiable surgical risk, and in women who are currently pregnant or nursing.

  • After breast implant surgery, patients might experience swelling, hardness, discomfort, itching, bruising, twinges, and pain over the first few weeks. Potential adverse events that may occur with silicone gel-filled breast implant surgery include capsular contracture, rupture, changes in nipple and breast sensation, infection, hematoma/seroma, delayed wound healing, implant extrusion, necrosis, granuloma, breast tissue atrophy/chest wall deformity, lymphadenopathy, gel diffusion, gel fracture, breast implant associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) and others.

  • The patient should inform the examiners about the presence, type, and placement of implants. Breast implants may complicate the interpretation of mammographic images by obscuring underlying breast tissue and/ or by compressing overlying tissue. Accredited mammography centers, technicians with experience in examining patients with breast implants, and the use of displacement techniques are needed to visualize breast tissue in the implanted breast adequately. The current recommendations for preoperative/screening mammograms are no different for women with breast implants than for those women without implants. Pre and post-surgical mammography may be performed to determine a baseline for routine future studies in augmentation patients.

GlutealArmonic®

  • GlutealArmonic® are intended to be used in women aged at least 18 years old for primary and revision gluteal augmentation/reconstruction purposes, indicated for the following procedures:

    • To correct congenital or acquired gluteal deformities or gluteal asymmetry.
    • To enhance the aesthetical appearance in patients dissatisfied with the shape/size of 
    their gluteal area.
    • To correct or improve the result of a previous gluteal augmentation/reconstruction surgery.

  • After gluteal implant surgery, patients might experience the following over the first few weeks:

    • Swelling
    • Hardness
    • Discomfort
    • Itching
    • Bruising
    • Twinges
    • Pain over the first few weeks

    Potential adverse events that may occur with silicone gel-filled gluteal implant surgery include:

    • Wound dehiscence
    • Hematoma
    • Seroma or edema in the implantation area
    • Infection
    • Loss of the implant as a result of muscle dehiscence and implant extrusion/exposure
    • Ptosis
    • Implant rupture
    • Capsular contracture
    • Sciatic paresthesias

    Because gluteal implant surgery is performed using general anesthesia, it is associated with the same risks as other invasive surgical procedures.
    After gluteal implant surgery, patients might experience swelling, hardness, discomfort, itching, bruising, twinges, and pain over the first few weeks.
    Potential adverse events that may occur with silicone gel-filled gluteal implant surgery include: wound dehiscence, hematoma, seroma or edema in the implantation area, infection, loss of the implant as a result of muscle dehiscence and implant extrusion/exposure, ptosis, implant rupture, capsular contracture, sciatic paresthesias, and others.

  • GlutealArmonic® implants are not lifetime devices. However, the life expectancy of a silicone gluteal implant cannot be precisely estimated, as there are many factors beyond the manufacturer´s control that can affect the longevity of a device. The time period varies from patient to patient. Some patients may need replacement surgery a few years after the primary procedure, while others can have their implants intact for 10 years or longer. Therefore, the life expectancy of the implant cannot be guaranteed. For safety, as well as the most beautiful and healthy outcome, it is important that the patient returns to their plastic surgeon's office for follow-up evaluation every month within six months after the surgical procedure and yearly for the first 10 years. During the 10-year follow-up visit, the surgeon will assess whether or not it is advisable to remove and replace the implants.

  • In order to register implants, please go to https://motiva.health/motivaImagine/ and create/log into your account.

     

    The patient can use either the Serial Number (SN) and the Validation Code (VC) OR the Electronic Serial Number (ESN). You don’t need both. Some Motiva implants do not have an ESN number, given that they do not have the Qid microtransponder technology in them. This is completely okay, as you can still register them using the SN and VC.
     

    The SN has 10 digits in the format is 00000000-00. Remember that each SN is unique. If you use the SN, you also need the VC, which is the number or letter that you can find on the right of your sticker.

    The format of the ESN is 15 digits and, usually, it starts with 9.

     

    Please refer to this image where to find it.

     

     


    Please try again considering these tips, and let us know if they are able to complete the registration. 

     

    If they have any additional issues, please send us a picture of the implant card and a video of the  process to be able to help you.

QID® / Screening

  • Currently, MRI imaging is the preferred method of choice for identification of implant rupture in breast implant evaluation. However, there are other technologies that may be used in addition to MRI and are recommended complement visualization and improve overall diagnosis. Additional imaging modalities to be considered include the following:

    • Breast ultrasound.
    • Digital tomosynthesis.
    • Automated ultrasound.
    • Scintimammography.
    • Dual energy contrast subtraction digital mammography.
    • Dual-energy enhanced mammography.

  • Q Inside® Safety Technology is the world’s first micro transponder for clinical use in a breast implant. It is the only transponder with CE mark (which indicates compliance with the health, safety, and environmental protection standards for products sold in the European Economic Area), and the United States Food & Drug Administration (F.D.A.) cleared it for use in 2004. Q Inside® is placed in the gel filling inside Motiva Implants®.

    A handheld reader is used to externally scan the transponder, providing an electronic serial number (ESN) that can be used to retrieve important implant information such as manufacturing date, implant type, volume, and more.

     

    Q Inside® is an optional feature in Motiva Implants® that is particularly useful to patients and surgeons to identify the implant type after the surgery, and to verify implant details during the event of a product recall.

    Product information or warranty cards can be lost or misplaced. With its unique ESN permanently located within the breast implant, Q Inside® provides the confidence of instant implant traceability and verification.

     

    Qid® does not pose any safety concerns for patients. It has been proven to be both safe and effective. Activated externally by the reader, it doesn’t require a battery and has an indefinite life expectancy. Qid® is magnetic resonance (MR) conditional, meaning that it is a device that is shown not to pose any hazards under specific magnetic resonance conditions.

     

    Please see the attached documents for more information:
