The Post-Surgery Bra Fit Guide

Healing with comfort and care

Understanding your unique needs

Every recovery journey is personal, and finding the right mastectomy brassiere or post breast augmentation bra starts with understanding your unique needs. Our range features soft linings, non-wired cups, and easy-to-manage front fastenings, crafted to ease your wear and enhance your comfort. Whether you're recovering from a mastectomy, augmentation, or reduction, our bras are here to offer the support you need gently and gracefully.

Fitting tips for your comfort

Achieving the right fit is essential, particularly after surgery. Your bra should fit snugly without pressing into your skin, ensuring the band is level and the cups fully encase without overflow. You can get fitted for a post-surgery bra either in-person or online through our Bra Fit service. Our bra fitters are specially trained in post-surgery fittings and are deeply knowledgeable about the varying needs that depend on the type of treatment and the stage of recovery. If you need help, our expert fitters are ready to assist with a personal fitting session, making sure you find your perfect size with ease and comfort.

Caring for your bra

To maintain the integrity and extend the life of your post-surgery bra, we recommend washing them gently in cool water with a mild detergent and air-drying. Proper care helps your bra continue to provide the support and comfort you need for longer.

Key features to consider

Comfort is paramount, so look for surgical brassieres with adjustable straps, soft-seam finishes, and breathable fabrics to gently accommodate sensitivity and swelling. Features like pockets for prosthesis and wider underbands add that extra layer of comfort and support. Our collection not only focuses on functionality but also celebrates your personal style and confidence with various styles and colors.
