One of the most common questions we get at Austin Plastic Surgeon is:
“Am I a good candidate for preservation breast augmentation?”
It’s a great question—and for many women, the answer is yes. At our Austin, Texas practice, Dr. Johnny Franco and the team specialize in this advanced approach to breast enhancement that focuses on creating beautiful, natural-looking results with less disruption to the body.
Let’s break down what makes someone a strong candidate for this innovative procedure.

🌸 What Is Preservation Breast Augmentation?
Preservation breast augmentation is a technique designed to enhance the shape and fullness of the breast while keeping the implant within the natural borders of the breast. This approach supports long-lasting results with minimal tissue disruption and a more natural feel and appearance.
Instead of relying on large implants to create volume, this technique focuses on working with your body’s existing anatomy to create a refined, proportionate result.
✅ Who Is a Good Candidate?
Most women who are looking for a natural breast enhancement that fits their body are excellent candidates for this approach. At Austin Plastic Surgeon, this describes the majority of our patients.
You may be a great candidate if:
- You’re looking to enhance the shape of your breasts more than just the size
- You want upper pole fullness without needing a large implant
- You desire proportionate, body-harmonious results
- You prefer an implant that flows naturally with your existing anatomy
- You want long-lasting enhancement with minimal invasiveness
- You’re interested in a breast augmentation that fits your personal aesthetic goals
📐 Why Breast Footprint Matters
One of the most important concepts in this procedure is the breast footprint—the natural dimensions and position of your breast on your chest wall. Every patient has a unique footprint that can sit high, mid, or low, and this greatly affects how we approach augmentation.
With traditional techniques, patients were often limited by their natural footprint, especially when it came to improving upper breast fullness. The only option was to use larger implants—which could feel unnatural or too heavy for some patients.
Now, with preservation-based techniques, we can enhance the position and shape of the breast without dramatically increasing implant size. This means patients can enjoy more lift and upper fullness, even with moderate or small implants, when carefully matched to their breast’s natural architecture.
💡 Why Choose Motiva Implants?
At Austin Plastic Surgeon, we use Motiva breast implants for our preservation breast augmentation procedures. These next-generation implants are known for their:
- Natural movement and feel
- Enhanced biocompatibility
- Ability to adapt to body position and movement
- Softer aesthetic with smooth, safe contouring
Motiva’s design allows us to optimize the placement and performance of the implant within your unique breast structure—resulting in a more refined, beautiful result.
🎯 Summary: Is This Right for You?
If you’re seeking a personalized breast augmentation that enhances your shape without going “too big,” you could be a perfect candidate for preservation breast augmentation. The technique is especially suited for women who value:
- Natural proportions
- A more lifted appearance
- Subtle, elegant enhancement
- Long-term results that age beautifully
