Will my Breast Change Shape Because of Compression from Bra?

I do not prescribe a specific bra to mold the breasts. In fact I send patients in home in what I call the "granny bras". The loose ones that are not too tight around the chest wall.

The sheer mythology, urban legends and voodoo surrounding breast augmentation and bras is daunting and overwhelming.

- The VOLUME of the breast is shaped by the implants

- the SHAPE of the breast will be determined by the implants, your skin elasticity, time and gravity. (IF the implants are placed in the right place during surgery they will descend back there once the swelling and inflammation have subsided. Keeping implants tight and high after an augmentation may result in unnaturally high implants). I prefer my breast augmentation patients not to use bras, bandeaus or binders for 1-2 weeks to allow descent but they resume wearing a bra when the optimal breast shape has been achieved.
