Post op bras

Everyone always says a good sports bra is best for after augmentation but what about mastectomy bras or maternity bras? They all have good support?

I haven't had my op done yet (27th), but my surgeon told me only to use a sports bra.

mine too, asda have a breast cancer supported post op bra which seems good. x

Really how much? I was also told today at my pre op to get one that does up at the back not one that you pull over your head, which i guess makes sense xx

I'm having my BA with transform in feb and I was also told to only buy sports bra which are front fastening. That ruled out the Macom and Royce straight away which I found odd as they are both made for breast augmentations. So I brought one from debenham's, there gorgeous range and although I am yet to use it, it seems really nice and doesn't look like it will rub against my scars at all. I need to get a few more though so may try Asda and M&S xx

Yeah Im in NZ so were pretty limited for those brands aye. Thort a post breast cancer bra would work pretty much the same as a augmentation bra?

I bought a macom one today, you can get them online, my surgeon said this one is fine xx

The Macom surgery sports bras only come in band size not cup size, they stretch to whatever you have there, so just order whatever band size you already are if your going to get one of them babes xxx

by TeresaMaree 19th January 2011, 6:21 am

which one did you get?? The one with elastic or the detachable one or the surgical bra?

by Jolene1984 19th January 2011, 8:33 am

The surgical one babes, if you read the info on them the elastic one is more post op and to help lift. Just remember to look at the size guide and measure your band to make sure you get the right fit, it's a pain sending rungs back and exchanging xxxxxx

Im post surgery from two BAs.. the bra's I have been told to use each time are front fastening non wired sports/support bras.. the thing is you need to be able to lie on your back for long periods of timeespecially at night and rear fastening are very very uncomfortable for that.. plus you need to be able to take them off easily.. especially just post op.. as you will not be able to move your arms very well for a number of weeks.. especially just post op.. It can hurt..

Hope this helps! xx

That's exactly what the macom bra is like, plus it won't go out of shape or stretch xxxxx

I am getting some :)
It actually works out not much more expensive than the ones that arent quite right here.

by Jolene1984 19th January 2011, 7:03 pm

I got two lol, gotta have a dark and a light one.
Where are you having yours done? xxxx

by Nicolaxxxx 19th January 2011, 8:32 pm

Hey Girls
Im getting an Uplift and Implant on Monday and I was told to get a sports bra as they have more support than maternity bras etc and I need all the support I can get as the last thing I need is for them to sag again ha. I got a front fastening one from M&S as it will be a lot easier to get on and off and dont need to lift your arms. Hope this helps xx

hi girls,

just checking out the Macom surgery bras.... are these suitable to use straight after surgery??? i am currently wearing a white one with very thick velcro straps which is very visible through clothing unless you wear a dark high necked tshirt!! i have been given another one exactly the same to change into after a few days.....

however i much prefer the look of this one!!!

when do u think i would be able to wear it? i am 4 days post op at the moment xxxx

by Jolene1984 20th January 2011, 5:39 pm

I think they are to wear straight from op, i'll be wearing mine straight away, although i haven't gone for the one that has elastic xxx

by clareyd 21st January 2011, 12:58 pm

i've just ordered 2 macom bras!! one size 34 and one size 36 as i'm not sure if the 34 will be too tight at the moment!?
i've opted for the one without elastic too jolene - my one i'm wearing at the moment is so restrictive and tight i cant wait to try this macom one!!! lol

its day 5 for me and i'm still feeling quite achey!! felt really drowsy this morning too, didnt want to get out of bed at all!! dreading going back to work on monday!!!! arrghhhhh lol
