Dayanara Perez is very careful about what she puts in her body.
So when the self-proclaimed “health nut” was named one of the first women in the US to receive Motiva silicone breast implants, her ears “and a few other body parts” perked up.
“My breasts are so weird and natural-looking,” Perez, 30, a mother of one from Long Island, told The Post of her 34Ds. “Motiva implants feel as good as real breasts.â€
Her $12,000 augmentation was performed by double-board certified plastic surgeon Mark Epstein of Hauppauge, NY, in 2018. Perez previously had saline implants that were inserted by another surgeon in 2015. But she went to Epstein after suffering an accidental rupture.
And just a few hours after being at his desk, Perez and her new breasts went out for dinner at a fancy local restaurant.
He is one of 22 doctors in the US allowed to use Motiva implants during the six-year Food and Drug Administration clinical trial.
The FDA officially approved Motiva, made by women’s technology company Establishment Labs and available in over 70 countries, on September 26.
And Epstein is already hailing the blue orbs, which cost upwards of $12,000, as “game-changers.”
“Motiva implants are made to improve women’s health,” said the professional. He has performed about 140 cosmetic procedures with premium puppies.
Implants are available in two different styles.
The Round motif gives the chest a circular shape, while the Ergonomix takes on a teardrop shape when standing inside the chest. The latter embodies the science of ergonomics, as it is designed to react, feel and move like natural breast tissue.
Both come with a SmoothSilk silicone outer shell that creates a smooth finish, creating a human-like feel.
The specialized braids come designed for improved biocompatibility and have been scientifically shown to promote low inflammation. They also reduce the risk of capsular contracture, which is the painful scar tissue that can form around the implant.
And the best breast for you couldn’t have come at a better time.
Knockouts in New York and beyond are calling out toxic, extremely large breast augmentations for healthier, less obtrusive alternatives.
The swing towards more subtle assets has gained momentum in recent years thanks to some celebrity downsizing.
Kylie Jenner, 27, started the madness in July 2023. The “Kardashians” siren openly regretted replacing the good things God gave her with artificial fillers at the age of 19.
Her confession opened the floodgates to a sea of similar pain from mermaids, who also wanted them to keep their natural profiles instead of paying for “big” jugs.
Last fall, the beauties of the Big Apple rushed to go under the knife for the necessary “cottage cheese and sweater” operations.
At the height of the trend, Upper East Side plastic surgeon Ryan Neinstein told The Post that 40% of his Gen Z and millennial clients want “smaller, sleeker implants because they want to look good with their everyday clothes.”
Anna Steve of Manhattan-based Neinstein Plastic Surgery said Motiva implants are now answering that call.
“Our phones are off the hook,” Steve, a small-volume implant specialist, told The Post. “Everyone loves Motives.â€
For Gotham Girls, getting a pair of sought-after Steve accessories can cost around $18,000. But she said the price is worth it.
“New York City women want accessories that fit their lifestyle,” said Steve. “Many women are fashionable and very petite, and traditional implants run the risk of rippling on thin women.”
Rippling is a complication that occurs when the outer shell of an implant folds inward, creating visible wrinkles.
“But Motiva implants are designed with a special gel-in-mouth technology that reduces the risk of rippling,” she added.
Epstein, who doubles as a biomedical engineer, agrees, saying, “Gel technology solves a lot of problems.”
“It’s a shell and [interior] gels move together as a unit, continued the professional. “The less movement of the silicone gel you have inside the implant, the less pressure on the shell and the less risk of rupture.”
An RFID sensor can also be inserted into most Motiva implants. Each FDA-approved chip is assigned a unique 15-digit serial number that, once scanned by a surgeon, provides vital information about the unit, including date of manufacture, size, volume and profile.
“They’re incredible,” Epstein said.
Andrea Balestrieri has felt incredible since augmenting her A-cup cleavage to C-size breasts with Motiva implants six years ago.
The hairdresser and married mother of two, from Suffolk County, told The Post that she would receive the lavish attachments “again and again.”
“They 100% look and feel so natural,” Balestrieri, who previously had saline inserts before going to Motiva in 2018.
“They don’t even feel like implants,” she said. “They feel like they are mine.â€
