Many athletic women are choosing the Preservé™ approach, which is ideal for those who don’t want their implants to limit mobility. At Epstein Plastic Surgery in Long Island, Dr. Mark Epstein is among only a handful of surgeons nationwide trained in this technique. Find out why it’s a good option for active women below.
1. Faster Recovery and Less Disruption to Your Training
Preservé uses methods that minimize trauma to muscle and tissue. This means less bruising, smaller incisions (usually just 2.5-3 cm), and a quicker return to your routine.
Because the implant pocket is created without cutting the chest muscle, your upper‑body strength and motion aren’t as interrupted. For an athlete, that means less downtime and a faster return to the gym, the pool, or the track.
2. Natural Movement and Feel That Complements Your Body
When your muscle flexes, traditional under‑muscle implants can shift or distort (“animation deformity”). Preservé places the implant above or just under the breast tissue (not under the muscle), allowing your body to move freely and naturally.
This method – combined with the advanced Motiva® implants – gives a softer, more seamless appearance and feel that fits an athletic silhouette rather than standing out.
3. Implants Designed for Subtle Enhancement and Performance
Athletic bodies often have less soft‑tissue coverage. Because of this, large implants or bulky placements can interfere with mobility or look disproportionate.
The Preservé approach emphasizes preservation and proportion: smaller implants, minimal dissection, and less added weight. That means you get curves without compromise, so you can maintain your strength, posture, and performance while enjoying a more defined shape.
