Choosing a Medical Bra After Breast Surgery
After breast augmentation, reduction or a breast lift, assess measurements, surgical areas, support structure and garment design together when selecting a medical bra.
Selecting a Product for the Procedure
A medical bra after breast augmentation, reduction or a breast lift should be chosen according to the procedure and the surgeon's postoperative plan.
It should support the breasts evenly without creating uncomfortable local pressure, particularly around incisions.
Accurate Measurements and Garment Construction
Do not rely only on standard bra size when selecting a medical bra. Assess underbust and bust measurements according to the product's sizing system.
Strap design, closure type and support level also matter for anatomical fit.
What to Check at the First Fitting
When fitted, the bra should support the breasts evenly. Straps, the underband and fastenings should not exert excessive pressure on one area.
Pay particular attention to areas touching incisions, and check that the bra does not unnecessarily restrict everyday movement.
