A More Refined Approach at Congressional Plastic Surgery

Breast augmentation at our Tysons Corner office is performed by Dr. Christopher C. Chang, MD and Dr. Hillary Jenny, leading plastic surgeons recognized throughout the greater Washington, DC area for combining world-class academic backgrounds with refined, natural aesthetic surgical outcomes. Both surgeons bring extraordinary clinical pedigrees to the practice: Dr. Chang trained at Harvard, NYU, Yale, and Johns Hopkins with over 80 peer-reviewed publications, while Dr. Jenny completed her training at MIT, Mount Sinai, and Johns Hopkins before completing a elite aesthetic surgery fellowship in Beverly Hills. Together, their shared surgical philosophy centers on long-term structural integrity, refined aesthetic harmony, and a clear understanding of how breast results age naturally over time.

Dr. Chang was also personally invited to Motiva's headquarters in Costa Rica, joining a select group of surgeons given firsthand exposure to how these implants are designed, manufactured, and researched. That direct insight translates into more informed guidance for patients weighing their implant options. Schedule a consultation to discuss what's right for you.

What Are Motiva Breast Implants?

Motiva breast implants were engineered around a simple goal: making silicone implants look and feel genuinely natural. Their SmoothSilk surface technology, paired with a proprietary gel formulation, allows the implant to interact with surrounding tissue in a gentler, more compatible way. This surface design is associated with a reduced inflammatory response compared to traditional implant surfaces, which may in turn help lower the likelihood of capsular contracture.

Movement is where Motiva implants really distinguish themselves. Conventional implants hold a fixed shape no matter how you're positioned. Still, the Ergonomix line actually shifts with your body, appearing fuller while lying down and settling into a more natural, sloped contour when you stand. The result is breast movement that mimics natural tissue far more closely than older implant technology allows.

The Preserve Technique: A Gentler Approach to Insertion

Beyond the implant itself, how it's placed in the body matters considerably. Congressional Plastic Surgery utilizes Motiva's Preserve insertion technique, a minimal-touch, funnel-assisted method that reduces direct contact between the implant and skin, surgical instruments, and breast tissue during placement. By limiting handling and exposure, this technique is designed to reduce the risk of bacterial contamination, one of the contributing factors behind capsular contracture and other implant-related complications. For patients concerned about long-term implant performance, the insertion method matters just as much as the implant selected.

Benefits of Motiva Breast Implants

  • Lower Capsular Contracture Potential: Certain design elements are associated with reduced rates of capsular contracture relative to some traditional implants, though individual results vary.
  • Movement That Mimics Natural Tissue: They shift and settle with your body's position, rather than holding one static shape like conventional implants.
  • A Softer Overall Feel: The implants’ advanced gel formulation creates a texture that closely mirrors natural breast tissue.
  • SmoothSilk Technology: Motiva implants are built to enhance biocompatibility, supporting a gentler healing response with reduced inflammation.
  • Proportionate Results: They deliver added fullness without tipping into an overdone or artificially augmented look.

Am I a Good Candidate for Motiva Breast Implants?

Patients drawn to a softer, more naturally moving result, rather than a firmer, more overtly "augmented" look, tend to be excellent candidates for Motiva implants. Candidacy ultimately comes down to having adequate tissue support and a realistic sense of your goals, both of which your surgeon will assess carefully during your consultation.

Breast augmentation at our Tysons Corner office is performed under the direction of Dr. Chang, a double board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive academic training and experience across both facial and breast procedures. His approach is grounded in structural planning, weighing implant selection against your individual anatomy and tissue support to produce results that look natural and hold up well over time.

Breast Augmentation Before & After

Your Consultation

Your consultation exists to make sure you leave with real clarity about your options. You'll walk through implant types, sizing considerations, and placement techniques specific to your anatomy, with direct, honest guidance on how each choice shapes both your immediate results and your long-term outcome.

How Much Does It Cost?

Pricing for Motiva breast implants depends on several variables, including implant type, surgical technique, and whether you're combining augmentation with any additional procedures. Your exact cost will be outlined after your consultation, once your full treatment plan has been mapped out.

What to Expect During Motiva Breast Implant Surgery

Motiva breast augmentation takes place under anesthesia in an accredited surgical facility. Your surgeon places incisions in discreet, carefully chosen locations, typically within the breast fold or around the areola, based on your specific anatomy, and selects implant positioning to support both immediate appearance and long-term stability.

Throughout the procedure, your surgeon carefully adjusts positioning and symmetry to anticipate how the implants will ultimately settle into place. Incisions are closed using techniques designed to promote clean healing and minimize visible scarring.

Motiva Breast Implant Recovery and Results

Following surgery, expect some mild swelling, tightness, and temporary sensation changes as your body adjusts to the new implants. Most patients feel comfortable resuming light daily activity within several days, gradually working back toward their normal routine over the following weeks.

As recovery continues, the implants gradually soften and settle into a more natural resting position. Your results will keep refining as swelling fully resolves and the surrounding tissue adapts around the implant.

Types of Motiva Breast Implants

Motiva SmoothSilk Round

This implant maintains a consistent, round shape regardless of body position, delivering defined upper fullness and a more lifted overall appearance. Patients drawn to a fuller, more structured contour frequently choose this option.

Motiva SmoothSilk Ergonomix

Designed to move with you, this implant appears fuller while lying down and takes on a more naturally sloped shape when you're upright. Patients seeking a softer, less overtly structured result often gravitate toward this option.

"I went to Dr. Chang to correct the damage done to my breasts from pregnancy and breastfeeding. He went above and beyond to make me comfortable and to explain exactly what the procedures (lift + implants) would entail. He was extremely responsive and truly understood the look that I was trying to achieve—full, natural for my frame, and with minimal scarring. I'm only two days out from surgery, and I'm already loving my results. I am so glad that I chose Dr. Chang to restore my chest to its pre-baby appearance. I actually think they are going to be better than they ever were before I had kids!"

"I had a consultation with two other surgeons before I met Dr. Chang. I always wanted a breast augmentation done, but didn't want to rush, so I took my time finding the best doctor in this area. Some doctors will put in whatever cc’s you ask for just to please you, and that's exactly what my second doctor wanted to do. I am very petite, and the size I thought I wanted would have been too extreme for my figure. Dr. Chang and his nurse, Kelly, not only made me feel extremely comfortable, but they also listened to what I wanted and explained every single step. Dr. Chang has his 24-hour recovery program, which definitely helped me tremendously. I got my surgery on Thursday and was back to my normal routine by Saturday. If you do what he says, you will see the results. I thought my boobs were going to be up extremely high the first week, but mine looked perfect, and now that they have dropped a bit, no one can tell I got a boob job... I mean, my boobs definitely went from 32A to 32DD, but because I healed so quickly and my boobs were not up to my chin, they just looked like my real boobs. It still looks so natural, and I love it! I knew Dr. Chang was my doctor after my first consultation, and I booked my surgery after a week. I am extremely happy with the results and thankful for Dr. Chang and his crew! His nurse, Kelly, was absolutely fantastic throughout the whole process, calling to check on me after my surgery and answering all of my questions! A huge thank you to Dr. Chang and Kelly!!!"

"Thank you, Dr. Chang and staff. After breastfeeding my second baby eighteen years ago, my confidence hit an all-time low because my breasts sagged badly. I no longer felt sexy and became very self-conscious about my appearance and would only wear conservative, non sexy clothing. I wasn't able to express myself through fashion as gravity often stepped in, causing wardrobe malfunctions as my breasts would often find themselves out of the bra. After years of contemplating breast augmentation and removing the bags under my eyes, I finally got the courage to do something about it, and that's when my friend referred me to Dr. Christopher Chang. As this was a big decision for me, I was very anxious, but Dr. Chang made me feel at ease with the decision I was about to make. In doing so, he carried out a detailed assessment and enquired about my reasoning for wanting the surgery (making clear his ethical stance). At the end of my consultation, I felt I was making an informed decision and that Dr. Chang was the person I would trust to carry out the procedure. He educated me on the pros and cons and on any possible risks involved. The office offered excellent pre- and post-surgery care and guidance. On the day of my surgery, I was greeted by a very pleasant Dr. Chang, who went over the final details of my procedure, which was reassuring. Following my procedure, Dr. Chang kept in frequent contact to check on my progress/recovery and, if I had a question, returned my calls immediately. This made my recovery after the procedure manageable. åWhen I first saw my 'identical twins', I almost dropped; the babies looked so beautiful and perfect. My confidence hit the roof; I felt like 21 again"

"I want to give Dr. Chang and his staff a shout-out for the amazing work they have done for me. I was first referred to Dr. Chang by a good friend of mine, as he was highly recommended. I had been considering having a breast augmentation for several years, so when I heard they were hosting a meet-and-greet with the doctors at their Fairfax office, I knew I had to attend. After meeting with Dr. Chang and the staff, I knew I was ready to set up an official consultation! At the consultation, both Dr. Chang and his nurse were a wealth of knowledge. They both made me feel extremely comfortable, and I felt confident in their hands. When I decided to proceed, I came in for my pre-op appointment, where I then tried on different implant sizes to determine what would be the best fit for my body. We decided that 275 ccs would be perfect for me since I am petite. The day of surgery, I was a little nervous but also very excited. Everyone at the hospital was very attentive and had remarkable bedside manners. When I came out of surgery, I had no pain and no discomfort. I felt slight pressure, which was to be expected, but overall, I was surprisingly very comfortable. After surgery, I began my “24-hour recovery”. A few hours after being home and resting, Dr. Chang called to check up on me, which I thought, “wow, what a thoughtful doctor!” The very next day, I went out to lunch with my friend and walked around the mosaic without any discomfort. I never once had to take any pain medicine, as I didn’t feel it was needed. The healing process took no time at all, and I was back to work within a few days. I am so in love with my results, and my confidence has skyrocketed! My new breasts look and feel so natural, and they are exactly what I was hoping for! I am very pleased with my experience from start to finish and am absolutely thrilled. Thank you so much, Dr. Chang. You have definitely boosted my confidence!"

"Dr. Chang and his staff are amazing! Three years ago, I considered getting a breast augmentation; however, 1 week before surgery, I canceled because I was entirely too nervous. Here I am now, approximately 1 month post op, and couldn't be happier. When I went in for my consultation with Dr. Chang, I felt extremely comfortable. He was very realistic, precise, and generally concerned/wanted the best for me. He and his staff are not only knowledgeable and skilled but also friendly and easy to talk to. On the day of my surgery, both Dr. Chang and his nurse called me to check how I was doing. I was offered the opportunity to be on the 24-hour recovery program, and I don't regret a single painful minute of it. I highly recommend Dr. Chang and his staff. The people are wonderful, and the office is well maintained."

"Four weeks ago, I had abdominoplasty and breast augmentation procedures with Dr. Chang. I am over the moon with the amazing natural and subtle results of his artistry. He is a gifted surgeon. He made the entire process from pre-op to recovery a very positive experience. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Chang. I unequivocally would recommend him for any cosmetic procedures you may be considering. He has a wonderful bedside manner, very engaging and informative, always. He makes you feel you are his only patient, never rushed or hurried. His upbeat and positive outlook is so refreshing. It’s truly a pleasure to be his patient. Nurse Kelly is such an asset to the team. She thoroughly prepares you for each step of the surgical process. Her expertise is very helpful and appreciated. The office staff is friendly, caring, and efficient. I wholeheartedly endorse the practice of Dr. Dufresne and Dr. Chang!!"

"I had a consultation with Dr. Chang on Friday, March 11, 2016, for a breast augmentation. Dr. Chang was very attentive and heard out all of my questions and concerns. He asked what I wanted my breasts to look like post-surgery, which made me very comfortable. After analyzing my measurements, we discussed the size of implants to be used. Dr. Chang explained the no-touch technique he uses, which reduces some of the risks associated with the surgery. He also said I would be a candidate for the 24 hr recovery process, which is very appealing to me, given my busy schedule. I am confident that Dr. Chang will help me achieve the look that I've been dreaming of for years. This is my fourth consultation, and I've finally found the doctor I trust to perform this surgery. All of my worries have been put to rest, and I cannot wait to go ahead with the surgery with Dr. Chang."

"I've been looking into getting a breast augmentation for years now. Like all others, I really made sure to do my research. Once I found Dr. Chang and met with him for my first consultation, I knew immediately he was the surgeon I wanted to do my procedure with! He was very easy to talk to and straight to the point with things. If you had any questions, he/his staff were happy to answer them. His staff was extremely professional, and I felt comfortable around them. Dr. Chang wants the best for you, especially if you are looking for a "natural look." He recommended what he thought would look best on me, and we compromised with his recommendations and my expectations. I was really nervous a day or two before the surgery, thinking maybe it wouldn't turn out to be what I wanted to look like. But I think everyone goes through this. The day of the procedure was calming - everyone was a pleasure to speak to, and after waking up from the surgery, I felt a little delusional (from the anesthesia, of course) but shortly after felt okay! Maybe it's because I have a higher pain tolerance, or Dr. Chang is THAT good (or both!), but I didn't need many drugs besides some ibuprofen for slight pain. I'm about one week post-op and am super happy with the results so far. Any unsure thoughts I had previously have been proved wrong, and I am ecstatic about that! I would 100000% recommend Dr. Chang—you are in great hands with him. I can't wait to see what my breasts look like when they fully heal and settle. Definitely one of the best decisions I've made for myself :) Thank you, Dr. Chang!"

"I had breast implant and lift revision surgery with Dr. Chang. The entire experience was so positive. The office staff couldn't have been more helpful each time I called for appointments and/or questions. Dr. Chang made me comfortable right from the start. His nurse, Kelly, was very informative and comforting, and helped me with a few of my decisions. Dr. Chang took the time to understand my concerns and to understand completely what my expectations were. I had things about my first surgery that I was not pleased with, and he made a point to make sure these issues were corrected. In the end, I am 100% satisfied with my results. I couldn't be happier. I am glad for the relationship I have formed with this practice. If I ever have a need for their services in the future, I would not hesitate to go to Dr. Chang."

Breast Augmentation Frequently Asked Questions

Are Motiva breast implants safer than traditional implants?

While every implant carries some degree of risk, Motiva implants are engineered to support a lower inflammatory response, which may help reduce the risk of certain complications, including capsular contracture.

Are Motiva implants available for primary and revision breast augmentation?

Yes, they can be used in both first-time procedures and revision surgeries, depending on your specific anatomy and surgical goals.

Do Motiva implants have a different surface compared to traditional implants?

Yes, their refined surface design is intended to support healthier tissue interaction and more stable long-term positioning.

How are Motiva implants monitored over time?

Routine clinical evaluations are typically recommended, with imaging added when clinically indicated to assess implant integrity.

What factors influence implant selection during consultation?

Your surgeon will consider your chest anatomy, tissue thickness, skin elasticity, and your desired final shape when helping you choose.

Can Motiva implants be used with fat transfer?

In some cases, yes. Fat transfer can be combined with implants to refine contour and smooth out transitions between tissue and implant.

Do Motiva implants affect future breastfeeding?

Many patients are still able to breastfeed after augmentation, though this depends on the specific surgical technique used and individual anatomical factors.

Will I need future surgery after getting implants?

Many patients enjoy long-term results, though implants may eventually need replacement or revision depending on how your body changes over time.
