Mastectomy Bras
A mastectomy bra is a specially designed bra for women who have undergone a mastectomy, and can be used with breast prosthesis forms. A mastectomy bra is great to wear post-surgery since it helps recreate a woman's breast prior to surgery with the help of a few accessories. Just like all regular bras, mastectomy bras are available in a variety of sizes, styles, and colors but are specifically designed for use with breast prosthesis. The healing process is very important after undergoing a mastectomy, and comfort is an absolute necessity. Here at Linda's, we are committed to make you feel at ease!
Post Surgical Bras
Post surgical bras are made with specially designed discreet pockets inside the cups. Some post surgical bras will only have one pocket in one cup, while others might have pockets on both cups. The breast forms are inserted inside the pockets, which help even out your breasts, and create a natural look. The shape of a post surgical bra is what makes it a great choice for post-surgery. With wide straps, front-fastening, very soft materials, and extra soft edging around that is extra kind to your skin, all measures are taken so that comfort is guaranteed. Most post surgical bras are wireless and offer the same great support that regular bras do.
Mastectomy Sports Bras
A mastectomy sports bra is a post surgery sports bra that secures breast forms in place while exercising. Like a regular sports bra, a mastectomy sports bra is also made with microfiber materials, making it light, breathable, and fast-drying. Unlike a regular sports bra, mastectomy sports bras offer microfiber pockets inside cups, specifically for breast forms, and are made of extra soft material to ensure comfort to your skin. Mastectomy sports bras are snug fitting, minimize movement, and have edging bands around to provide unbeatable comfort and support.
Mastectomy Sleep Bras
Mastectomy sleep bras are bras that are comfortable enough to sleep in. Mastectomy sleep bras are lightweight, offer easy closure, and are made of soft stretch fabric. They are ideal to wear during and after surgery, offering gentle support while preventing pressure on the body. Like all mastectomy bras, mastectomy sleep bras also have pockets inside cups to help provide a good night's sleep.
Breast Forms
The majority of women who have undergone a mastectomy use breast forms (also known as breast prosthesis). Breast forms come in a variety of styles, sizes, colors, and can be used for only one breast or both. They easily fit inside mastectomy bras, or you can choose to apply it directly to your skin. If you have undergone a partial mastectomy, a partial compensation breast form is best. Partial compensation breast forms can offer medical fleece to help with restoration, relief of lymphedema, and sensitive scar tissues. These breast forms are meant to fill in missing tissue where most needed. Full compensation breast forms are best if you have undergone a full mastectomy. These breast forms are great for all figures, and come in different shapes to naturally move with you. Breasts form are light and extremely soft to wear, and each have their own individual advantages. Breast forms can last from two to five years if taken care of properly.
Mastectomy Accessories
There are various kinds of mastectomy accessories available for your everyday needs. At Linda's we offer the Anita Care Prosthesis Case which helps protect your breast forms in a secure place. The very cute and functional case is great for traveling as well, with a sleek handle, and classic look. This case ensures you that your breast forms will last for a long time.
