We have BIG news! Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Brian K. Reedy has been selected as one of fewer than 100 surgeons in the entire United States to offer Preservé by Motiva®—a groundbreaking, less invasive breast enhancement technique designed to preserve your natural breast tissue and minimize your recovery time. 

Dr. Reedy is the only Preservé-trained surgeon in Central Pennsylvania, and consultation spots have been filling up fast due to the high demand for this innovative approach.

What is Preservé?

Preservé is a specialized breast augmentation technique that uses precision instruments to gently create space for the implant while protecting your breast tissue, sensation, and support structures.

Here’s what sets Preservé apart:

  • Tissue-preserving approach: Your natural breast tissue and chest muscles stay intact
  • Smaller incisions: Typically around 3 centimeters
  • Faster recovery: Most patients return to daily routines within days, not weeks
  • Minimal anesthesia: Can be performed without general anesthesia for select candidates
  • Natural-looking results: Designed specifically to work with advanced Motiva breast implants for a natural look and feel

Dr. Reedy has been offering Rapid Recovery Breast Augmentation for years, and Preservé takes his commitment to minimizing your recovery time even further.

How is Preservé different from traditional breast augmentation?

Traditional breast augmentation typically involves an incision along the inframammary fold (the lower breast crease), and often uses techniques that require both general anesthesia and a recovery period of 1-2 weeks.

For the right candidates, Preservé changes that equation. The technique utilizes specialized instruments to create a precise pocket through smaller incisions while preserving the inner support structures of the breast to promote long-term stability. This tissue-sparing approach means:

  • Less trauma to your body: Protecting natural structures reduces swelling and discomfort
  • Quicker healing: Many patients feel ready to return to work and light activities within just a few days
  • Maintained function: Preserving tissue helps to preserve sensation so that your breasts continue to feel natural
  • Enhanced stability: The intact support structures help maintain your results over time

“It has been three months since my breast augmentation and I am already very happy with my results. Why didn’t I do this sooner ?! For somebody who was having surgery for the first time, Dr. Reedy and his staff put me completely at ease. My entire recovery was exactly how they explained it would be. I was out and about several days after my surgery without any issues and returned to work in five days. I am thrilled that padded and uncomfortable bras are in the past and that I can start wearing any strapless, backless shirts that I want!”

Who is a good candidate for Preservé?

Preservé is ideal for women seeking subtle, natural enhancement (typically a one to two cup size increase) who want to preserve their natural breast tissue and function. It’s particularly well-suited for:

  • First-time breast augmentation patients who value a less invasive approach
  • Women concerned about lengthy recovery times interfering with work or family obligations
  • Patients who want to maintain maximum nipple sensation and natural breast feel
  • Those seeking natural-looking results without an overly augmented appearance

Many women have wanted breast enhancement but hesitated because of concerns about recovery time, scarring, or losing the natural look and feel of their breasts. Preservé addresses these concerns with a technique designed for faster recovery, smaller incisions, and outcomes that appear natural.

Preservé + Motiva: Advanced technology meets innovative technique

Preservé is designed specifically to work with Motiva’s SmoothSilk® Ergonomix® breast implants, which Dr. Reedy has been offering since 2024 as one of the first surgeons in Pennsylvania to provide Motiva’s next-generation implant options.

This implant features proprietary technologies that improve biocompatibility, reduce complications, offer unique safety monitoring capabilities, and achieve outstanding aesthetic results:

  • SmoothSilk® surface: Engineered to minimize friction and reduce the risk of capsular contracture
  • BluSeal® barrier layer: Adds a protective layer to keep silicone safely contained
  • Dynamic, highly cohesive gel: Ergonomix® implants allow for natural movement that adapts with your body position

Together, the Preservé technique with Motiva SmoothSilk® Ergonomix® implants represent one of the most advanced approaches to breast augmentation available today.

Why choose Dr. Reedy for Preservé?

Dr. Reedy’s selection as one of fewer than 100 surgeons nationwide to receive Preservé training reflects his standing as a leader in breast surgery innovation. With over 20 years specializing in advanced cosmetic breast procedures, he was named one of “America’s Best Plastic Surgeons 2021” by Newsweek magazine for breast augmentation—a peer-recognized distinction reserved for top specialists in the field.

Dr. Reedy was among the first surgeons in Pennsylvania to offer Motiva breast implants, and has pioneered advanced techniques like Rapid Recovery Breast Augmentation for years. His commitment to staying at the forefront of breast surgery innovation, combined with his surgical artistry and meticulous attention to detail, is why patients frequently travel from Philadelphia, Lancaster, New York, and beyond for their procedures.

With decades of experience and thousands of successful breast augmentation procedures, Dr. Reedy brings extensive expertise to this new technique.

“I cannot recommend Dr. Reedy and his team enough! He did an outstanding job on my breast augmentation and lift, and I couldn’t be happier with my results. From start to finish, he was thorough, professional, and truly dedicated to his work. He even called me the night of my surgery to check in, which speaks volumes about his level of care. His bedside manner is top-tier, and he made me feel comfortable at every appointment… I traveled over an hour to see Dr. Reedy, and I would do it again in a heartbeat. It was absolutely worth it! I’ll be recommending him to everyone I know. If you’re considering surgery, look no further—Dr. Reedy is the best!”
