375cc/380cc, Motiva vs Mentor silicone - do you recommend one over the other?

Question

I am considering Breast Augmentation, and after extensive research narrowed down my selection to silicone implants of a cc size of either 375 or 380. I have 2 doctors which I am comfortable with, and both have a history of good results. Basically only difference is one deals exclusively in Motiva implants, the other prefers Mentor. Any advice from doctors, or patients who have done the research on both or can recommend one or the other would be good. FDA in USA has not approved motiva, I unders

Dear Practical, five cc's in size is negligible, so that doesn't matter, but I suggest you feel the implants and decide which one is more appealing. Motiva is not here in the USA, and I have used Mentor almost exclusively in my practice. The company and implants have been around for decades, have stood the test of time, and offer an excellent warranty.

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

I have used Mentor implants for many years now and have always been very pleased with the implants and the company. Mentor is 1 of 2 companies that survived in the USA during the 90's and early 2000's.  Mentor also is owned by Johnson and Johnson which is a very strong company that has been around for many years as well. Although we cannot predict the future, it is comforting to go with a sound company that has survived many trials. Also, I prefer smooth round implants for longer lasting results and fewer risks.  My vote is for 375 cc Mentor implant.
