High-Resolution Ultrasound-Assisted Assessment of Preliminary Short-term Safety Outcomes of an Implant-Based
Background:
The Motiva Ergonomix Round SilkSurface (Establishment Labs Holdings Inc., Alajuela, Costa Rica) is one of the representative brands of the fifth generation of a silicone gel-filled breast implant with a microtextured surface.
Objectives:
In this study, the authors describe preliminary short-term safety outcomes of an implant-based augmentation mammaplasty using the Motiva Ergonomix Round SilkSurface in Korean females.
Methods:
The authors performed a retrospective analysis of medical records in a total of 69 females (n = 69) receiving an implant-based augmentation mammaplasty using the Motiva Ergonomix Round SilkSurface between September 26, 2017, and December 31, 2020. The authors analyzed incidences of postoperative complications.
Results:
A total of 6 cases (8.7%) of postoperative complications occurred; these include 2 cases (2.9%) of early seroma, 1 case (1.4%) of capsular contracture, 2 cases (2.9%) of alterations in the shape, and 1 case (1.4%) of foreign body sensation. Time-to-events were estimated at 266.81 ± 273.17 days.
Conclusions:
The authors describe our preliminary short-term safety outcomes of an implant-based augmentation mammaplasty using the Motiva Ergonomix Round SilkSurface in Korean females. But this deserves further large-scale studies with long periods of follow-up.
