Seems like my breasts are sagging again 8 weeks post anchor lift. When can I wear an underwire bra again?

You can wear an underwire bra now and it should not interfere with healing.  However, I recommend another alternative called The Bellesoma Method.  This will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage.  Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation and the ability to breast feed are maintained, if not injured during your previous surgery.  At the same time or later, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Each plastic surgeon has a preference for the type of bra to wear following a breast lift. The bra worn should not place any tension or pressure on the incisions.  Sports bras may be OK for the first six weeks. Recommend that you email or phone your surgeon's office to ask what he/she prefers and schedule a follow-up to discuss the sagging you are experiencing.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Hello,As long as it doesn't hurt, you can wear an underwire bra. This will not help your recurrent sagging. Although you give little details about your surgery or photographs, based on my assumption that your lift was performed without resection of breast tissue, your breast tissue is still too dense or heavy, and is simply re-expanding the skin. Bras won't help. Best of luck!
