Breast band 4-6 weeks post op?

June 16, 2014
Asked By:Ktee2425 in Cleveland, OH

Breast aug 390cc saline under muscle. My doctor says I need to wear a breast band for 4-6 weeks and wear No bra. This seems unrealistic to me because I want to wear somewhat normal clothing without my nipples showing after. Can I wear a bra with it? And do I need to wear then band that long??
