Redefining the Breast Augmentation Experience

At CaloAesthetics Plastic Surgery Center, every detail of your procedure is designed around you: your anatomy, goals, and confidence. Preservé™ by Motiva reflects that same philosophy, offering a more modern, patient-centered evolution of traditional breast augmentation.

Unlike conventional methods that can disrupt surrounding tissue, the Preservé approach minimizes strain on the breast pocket and protects vital structures for smoother healing and softer, more natural results. It’s beauty through preservation, not disruption.

What Is Preservé by Motiva?

Preservé by Motiva is a gentle, precision-based breast augmentation technique developed to reduce tissue trauma and enhance surgical control. The method emphasizes minimal dissection, refined implant placement, and advanced instrumentation to preserve natural anatomy while achieving optimal symmetry and proportion.

With Motiva’s innovative implant technology, Preservé allows surgeons to create outcomes that look and feel naturally beautiful, with the goal of minimizing swelling, reducing post-operative discomfort, and supporting a quicker return to daily life compared to traditional breast augmentation.

The Origins of the Preservé Technique

Preservé™ was originally developed by Dr. Manuel Chacón, a board-certified plastic surgeon and the creator of Breast Tissue Preservation® at the Centro Europeo de Cirugía (CEC) in Costa Rica. Dr. Chacón and his team pioneered a low-impact approach to breast surgery that prioritizes preservation of the breast's natural anatomy, including Cooper's the circummammary ligament and surrounding muscular structures, to achieve results that move and feel naturally with the body.

Dr. M. Bradley Calobrace, MD, FACS, is among the first surgeons in the United States to offer Preservé by Motiva and serves as a national trainer for the technique. His collaboration with Dr. Chacón and the Motiva team reflects the globally-oriented approach to innovation that has defined CaloAesthetics' leadership in breast surgery.

Leadership & Innovation

As one of the nation’s foremost experts in aesthetic breast surgery, Dr. M. Bradley Calobrace is not only among the first surgeons in the U.S. to perform Preservé by Motiva, but he also serves as a primary national trainer for the technique.

Dr. Calobrace and CaloAesthetics Plastic Surgery Center recently hosted surgeons nationwide for hands-on Preservé training, further cementing his reputation as a leader in breast surgery innovation and a trusted educator in advancing safe, natural-looking outcomes.
