Breast Augmentation Bras: Before and After Surgery
Breast augmentation bras are special purpose garments designed for women considering breast implants. Prior to your surgery, there are unique bras that are made to help you choose your breast implant size. After the surgery, compression bras are made to help in recovery and to sustain the improvements of your breast augmentation. When you use the appropriate bras you will be more likely to be satisfied with the results of your surgery over a longer period of time.
Before the Procedure Bras
Trying out various breast implant sizes in your trial bra is critical to your satisfaction. For years women have not had the luxury to use these sizers at home, leading to the most common reason for dissatisfaction...breast implant size. Find a breast implant trial bra that allows you to experience different implant sizes throughout your normal daily activities.
Recovery Bras
By wearing a breast augmentation recovery bra you will:
* Reduce swelling in the breasts * Improve blood circulation * Help flush out potentially harmful bodily fluids * Shorten your recovery time
Throughout the recovery process you will notice the need for different bra sizes and types. In the beginning, you will want the highest support possible to reduce pain and minimize motion. Your plastic surgeon can advise you on a breast augmentation recovery bra that is will minimize the throbbing sensation in your breasts. About one week after the procedure, your plastic surgeon may suggest wearing another recovery bra with lighter compression before you can start wearing a good sports bra as the final recovery garment.
You will feel great in the compression of the sports bra which is like the recovery bra, while allowing for more freedom of movement.
Breast Augmentation Bras
No sooner than six weeks after your surgery, your doctor may be in a position to advise you that you are ready to wear the pretty bras you've been waiting for! Overall, underwire bras should not be worn any sooner than until six weeks after the surgery. Some doctors may recommend wearing them only occassionally after that as well.
When you are ready to buy your new bras you will want to visit with a bra fitting specialist. Be sure to visit with a specialist who is familiar with the special needs of women with breast implants. As 70% of women wear the wrong size bra, it is never more important than to visit a specialist after receiving breast implants.
One patented series of bras, the Le Mystere No. 9 bra is specifically designed for the unique shape and placement of augmented breasts.
