I am 11 days post op and I am in no pain and no longer feel uncomfortable. I can sleep any way I want. I took my surgical bra off today and I wore a tight cotton spaghetti strap tank. I just feel like going bra less would help them drop faster. I was an a cup and now I have 500cc saline mentor hp implants.
Answer: Bra after surgery Great question! I generally have patients change over to a soft cotton bra or sports bra after about one week. I recommend patients continue to wear some kind of bra for 4 weeks to provide some support as the breast heals from surgery. After 1 month, if the patient desires, can go braless and resume all pre-operative activities.Best of luck and hope this information helps! - Dr. Roger Tsai @DrRogerTsai Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Post op bra Hi Congratulations on your surgery. I usually advise my patients to use the compression bra for at least 3 weeks after surgery, after that you can change to a sports bra and 5 to 6 weeks after surgery you can use any bra you like or no bra at all. But you should ask your surgeon and follow his postoperative care instructions since he is the one who knows your case best. Happy recovery Dr Marco Carmona MD

Answer: Sports bra after surgery Thank you for your question and congratulations on your surgery. I typically recommend patients to wear their sports bra for a total of 4 weeks. If you need to come out of it here or there it is fine to do so. Each surgeon will have their own protocol on which they wish you to follow. I would suggest just placing a call to your surgeon and asking their recommendations. Best of luck to you.
